Happy New Year Everyone!
I've been thinking for a while now that it's probably time to change my password.
You can do this anytime you think your account was compromised or if you log in to a public PC changing your password is any time when its necessary not just for an occasion.
Set your password to ten to twelve characters - but not ones that are only found on your phone (otherwise you'll be stuck logging on on you cell phone) - source a random password generator app and don't use words or phone numbers/birthdays.
Be sure that you can always remember the password that you've used and you alone know that password
What about home renovations? Or getting in contact with long lost family members or old flames?
You can do that anytime it doesn't have to be on New Year, people might think that you're doing this because of New Year do so when you feel that you want to see them and that's anytime.
