Can't Remember Passwords? Roboform Them!
Whether it's to get a piece of software, join a new site or buy and sell merchandise, we need to fill out online forms. Think about it, how many online forms do you fill out a day? How about a week? How about per year?
Let's say, for argument's sake, you don't fill out many forms. Let's say you fill out five forms a week. Let's say each form takes five minutes to fill out. That's 125 minutes, over two hours a month, for filling out online forms.
How much time is wasted on remembering passwords? Unless you use the same password for every single thing - which, by the way, is neither smart nor secure - you probably have a heck of a time remembering passwords for sites you already signed up on.
Let's go through the routine. You try to sign in and fail. You then try every password and combinations of passwords that you use. You may get lucky, you may not. If you still fail, despite numerous attempts, you have to resort to clicking the dreaded "forgot user name and password" button. Then you have to fill in your email address. Next, you have to wait a few minutes, up to a few hours, for your login information to be sent to you. Unless, of course, it's the type of site that sends you information you have to click on, because they reset your password. Then you have to click on it and input a new password. Then, they log you out and you have to sign back in with the new password you just signed up with.
How much time did all that just waste? At least five minutes or more, right? How often do you go through this routine every week?
Now that I've exposed the common time wasting problems on the Internet, it's time for the curtain to be pulled back and the solution revealed.
