Travel Tips For a Geeky Honeymoon
Our wedding coverage is in full force here on the Sugar Network, and this week, we're talking about the honeymoon. Not only is the honeymoon meant to give newlyweds some much-needed alone time, but it's also great to get away from all the stress and relax after the big day! In case you haven't started planning the trip, or if you're still wondering what to pack, check out some of my favorite travel tips for a memorable and geeky honeymoon.
Use Firefox's Page Info to Recover Forgotten Passwords
Do you chronically blank on your passwords? If so, I have a little tip that can make things much easier on you: you can recover saved passwords from any site in Firefox in five easy steps! Ready?
Geek Tip: Make Scrapbooks in Photobucket
Remember when I told you about the cool online scrapbooking site called Scrapblog? Photobucket liked it so much that they've teamed up to bring you a Scrapblog app right in its photo-hosting site. So alongside your albums, slideshows, and videos, you can customize your own scrapbook with all those digital photos you've been storing!
Cool Download: Zotero
File this one under "awesome tools to help you finish your term paper," especially if there is heavy research involved. The extension is called Zotero, and it's too bad I didn't have this back when I was in school, since it would have made my life so much easier!
Zotero works on your Firefox browser to help you organize and keep track of your links, notes, and photos that you need to finish up your research.
Geek Tip: Check Flixster Before Heading to the Theater
I hate it when the trailer for a movie has me all excited, and then a few minutes in I realize I have a totally lame, boring, or disappointing 90 minutes ahead of me (why Speed Racer, why?!). So after a friend turned me on to Flixter, I've been feeling a little more confident that the movie I'm about to see is worthy of my $10.50.
Flixter's tagline is "Stop Watching Bad Movies."
Embed Your YouTube Videos With Cool Skin Flix Skins

Geek Tip: Manage Your Money With Rudder
My aunt is a bank manager, and I told her at a recent family event that I don't use a check register to keep track of my deposits and withdraws from my checking account.
She gave me a lecture about being responsible with my money, and wondered how I didn't overdraw my accounts all the time. But being that I only write one check a month for rent, and all my other bills are paid online, I don't really see the need!
Best Ways To Stay Socially Connected
Social networks are all the rage these days, with people Twittering, Loopting, and sending their locations to friends via their cell phone, all in hopes to stay in touch and rack up points on those social calendars.
Whether you are tethered to your cell, or connecting through your WiFi, here are some of the best websites, networks, and apps to keep you connected to your friends.

Use BiddingForTravel For Cheap Summer Rooms and Flights
Travel season is upon us, and I'll be the first to say I have champagne taste, but am confined to a beer-sized budget. Finding deals on hotels and flights has never been so important, especially with gas prices and travel costs through the roof! So lately, Priceline's "Name Your Price" feature (you know the commercials — William Shatner is the "Priceline Negotiator"?) has been looking more and more attractive, but I've heard a story or two about users who have been less than thrilled with their room once they've arrived.
Top 10 Blackberry Tips and Tricks You Should Know
Last week my mom called at 10 p.m. and in a triumphant Milhouse-inspired voice exclaimed: "I did it, I did it! I cracked the code!"
