We hope to launch a service precisely to help with this (toofactor.com). It's great to see this additional attention and options in the space.

Google Authenticator is a great service imho, but I find myself moreso pleased with the 'application specific' password feature which allows me to abstract my exposure even further.

I've recently moved to using 1password (prior to that, Lastpass). I was skeptical at first, but have grown to embrace 1password more and more and find myself annoyed when sites will not allow my standard, 1pass generated passwords (50 characters).

That said, two factor for anything of critical importance (in my case, gmail and work email).

This rings true for Humanities Phd's as well. It's difficult to describe the cycle of guilt, drive and passion somehow all wrapped together. This is a great overview.

We participate in a homeschool group (secular) which has a small number of families, as well as a co-operative (which folks teach various classes). We found both through Yahoo groups for our area (hamptonroads, va). I'll admit I was skeptical at first but now can't imagine not homeschooling.
