Computer/Browser Add-Ons

1Password

I seriously can’t function without this app.  I began using this app about 10 years ago for storing all my passwords and have never looked back.  I couldn’t tell you a single one of my passwords because they are all generated and secure.  This also has a phone app so you can have access to all your passwords on the go. This also allows me to login to any site I’m on with the touch of a button.

Try 1Password

CopyClip

I use this app every single day since I copy and paste a LOT! My primary purpose for this app is if I’m copying and pasting code in sections or a customer’s login information.  I can copy 3 different things from an email and have all those in my clipboard for easy pasting instead of flipping back and forth between apps.

Try Copyclip

Moom

This allows you to easily position the windows on your screen into sections with the keyboard shortcuts you create.  I use this feature all the time especially while I’m developing a new theme so that I can have the site I’m working on positioned to the left, my FTP program in the top right of my screen, and then firebug in the bottom right.

Try Moom

GoFullPage

This Chrome extension helps me take a screenshot of the entire web page from top to bottom without having to piece screenshots together.

Podcasts every business owner should listen to

Podcasts are all the rage right now, and for very good reason! Back in the day, in order to learn from others we had to follow the “famous” self-help type of people like Tony Robbins and Dani Johnson (which both are still fabulous). Podcasts give everyday real life people an opportunity to share their stories, their journeys, their successes, their failures, their lessons learned, and their encouragement. Here is a list of my favorites!
