MyDigiCheatSheet: Keep track of your computer accounts
The Apple site has had a Cheat Sheet buried on it for some time, and it asks users to fill in the information required for an Apple Care customer service rep to take a call. My sister's computer recently crashed, and while she had some of that information at her fingertips, we later found that she had dozens of bookmarks and sites saved with her usernames and passwords attached. "How can I get on to my Flickr account if I can't remember anything about it because it was saved to my computer?"
Say what you will about the folks who lose or forget their account information...but I'm guessing that most of us have been in that very same situation at least once.
A while back, I retooled Apple's form to keep track of everything that I'd need to know for the various computers I use. Now, you can too...
Here's a PDF version of the MyDigiCheatSheet for Macs and PCs. (Hell, the Linux amongus can use it too.)
An obvious caveat: I wouldn't actually save this thing on your desktop. Fill it out, stash it wherever you've secured your Social Security card and other important documents. (Unless you're one of the many fools carrying that card in your wallet, of course.)
If you think I've left anything out and want an alterable copy in Word, shoot me an email and I'll send it straight away.
