I spend a lot of time in front of the computer and I need to track how I use my time. Rescuetime allows me to do that seamlessly. The RescueTime app runs in the background of your devices tracking, measuring and automatically categorizing your activity.Save time online

The app is based on Peter Drucker’s (the famous management consultant) maxim that “what gets measured, gets managed.”

LastPass

Working online invariably means that you will sign up on a number of websites and you run the risk of forgetting some of your passwords and logins. I have used a few password managers and LastPass has turned out to be the best. It is a full-featured tool which combines a vault, form-filler, and password generator.

After you sign up and install the LastPass browser plugin, it captures your login credentials when you visit a website for the first time. When you return to a site, a small icon appears in its login fields showing how many accounts you have stored.

Clicking it opens a drop-down menu revealing each account so you can select the appropriate one. You can also select an auto-login option for each account to have LastPass sign you in automatically whenever you visit that site.

 

All this makes it easy for me to navigate the web. I only need to remember the master password. LastPass is free to use on multiple devices, and two-factor authentication is included in the free version. I use it on my computer and my mobile phone and it truly simplifies logging in.
