Dear ,

Happy Saturday! My posts are coming late this week as I spent a ton of time producing and editing a YouTube video about Facebook. If you recall, I had posted on June 1, 2021 about the importance of checking your privacy, security and notification settings in Facebook. In that post, I promised a video to walk you through the entire process. That video is now posted and you can find it on YouTube or you can go back to the original post and it's there, too. Just click HERE to re-read the post and watch the video.

There are two posts today. The first is about "the good old days" while the second covers the Amazon Sidewalk. I hope you'll take the time to read both of these posts.

Happy reading!

John
