OT but Important: Internet users advised to change passwords over "Heartbleed" bug....

I highly recommend you all change your passwords for any websites that contain sensitive information, like banking email, shopping sites, etc. Tumblr sent out emails to all users to change passwords to all your online accounts. Smiley Sad. Many websites have made the fix (Gmail, Amazon.com, my banking site); however, looks like shopping sites like qvc, hsn, sephora have not. You can easily check if a site is secure by going to this website: filippo dot io/Heartbleed Protect yourself & safe shopping Smiley Happy))

I worked on this all day. Please be careful when you change your passwords on this one, and you may even have to change it twice depending if you were involved with an infected site. But yes check your site's status. Nasty little bug!
