Tuesday Tech Tip: Track your packages with FaraNow
I order a lot online. I love to track my packages on their journey to my home. To do this I use www.faranow.com. Just sign up for free and then forward the e-mail containing the tracking number to Fara’s e-mail address to automatically add new packages to your account. Then watch their travels and get delivery estimates. (Pardon some of the blurring in the screenshot. I’ve already started my Christmas shopping.)
