I was just in a training today learning to make Real Estate blogs and websites. Whenever people heard something that made their life easier through technology, they breathed a collective sigh of relief. Since this is partly a psychology blog, I’m hoping this bit of of tech info will do the same for you.

Zip and encrypt are two words most professionals are familiar with.  In my line of work, teachers are regularly asked to review data and share it with grade level leads, district office leads, and principals.  Because of this, most my colleagues and I carry a keychain zip drive.  These have become increasingly large in disk space, mine for example is 3 GB.  While most zip drives have plenty of space, video and database modernization has taken up more space as well.  For this reason, it makes a lot of sense to zip and excrypt ones files before dragging onto a zip drive.  This makes your capacity much larger.

There is a contest I want to tell you about called “Decrypt and Drive.”  All you have to do is download free zip and encrypt software, by PKWARE the inventor of the .zip standard, and you are eligible for prizes that include a Honda scooter, bicycles, Wii games, gas cards, and more!  This is a product I have on my desktop and it helps me compress files for CD’s, key zips, and email.  I highly recommend you go enter the contest by simply downloading it.  Go to www.securezip.com now.
