Covid has accelerated many changes in our lives from shopping online to working from home. Some of these changes were inevitable but some might not have happened or would have been much slower to come if not for the pandemic.
It has required IT departments to allow things which before were taboo so that staff could work from home.
Its has accelerated the move online leaving us with empty shops and lots of options for coffee.

Its probably a good time for small business to look into data storage and security. Where are you documents and spreadsheets etc, are they safe from hackers and have you more than one copy. Unlike people, twos company and threes a crowd, data is better the more copies you have, ones bad twos better and three is about right.

If your concerned about data security there are lots of options like secure email and encrypted storage that make it more difficult for hackers to get at your valuable data.

For email you could use, ProtonMail, Tutanota, Mailfence, Runbox, CounterMail etc.

For encrypted cloud storage, IDrive, pCloud, BackBlaze, IceDrive, NordLocker, Google drive and Onedrive are also available.

Other news, I have moved to Windows 11 and after about a month everything is going as before. Its an improvement on the ZX81 I started on a few years ago.
