    The "protect me from myself" feature would be great on a per item basis. Say, for example, I'm setting up a dripfeed for a new phone (nice-to-have) and another for winter jacket (r…

    These really don't seem like "shortcuts" per se. More like general tips to position yourself for getting hired. Maintaining an online presence, preparing for interviews (especially…

    I hate when apps ask to post to Facebook or Twitter on my behalf. It's uncomfortable and puts the user in an awkward position. Great article, hope some of these companies take note…
