I have been maintaining this selection of Mac browsers since 1994.…

First and foremost, just how snoop-proof is your Mac? Chris Breen and the commenters have a lot of interesting things to say about this.
Does your calendar rule your life? Does something not exist if it’s not on the calendar? Use your iPhone, and Calendar doesn’t quite cut it? Replace Calendar with Fantastical on your iPhone. Again, interesting and informative comments.

Shoulder Surfing
Ran across a post on makeuseof.com, Keep Your Secret Files Out Of Sight With MacHider. It starts out thusly:
…Mac OS X does a great job of keeping my data protected most of the time. Ironically, the most sensitive time for my data is when I’m actively using the computer.
I’m not talking about trojans or other such digital intruders. No, the pest I’m talking about goes by the name of shoulder surfing. The strength of my security doesn’t matter if everyone looking over my shoulder can see my most sensitive data. This is one of the main reasons why I keep my precious files hidden from sight at all times, by using tools like MacHider. It’s security through obscurity.
