WordPress Security Esentials Videos

Noting these, for myself if no one else. But if you host your own site using WordPress, you might pick up a tip or two from these videos put together by the folks at WPMU Dev. Personally, I might not be taking all of the advice given, even though I realize that might make my site a little less secure than it could be. Just stuff that makes it easier for me to use though, thus displaying the time honored conundrum of computer security. 😉

    I actually meant to post this earlier in the week, then forgot all about it until tonight. Tuesday night, upon our return to Port Columbus airport, I had to make a quick stop at the men’s room on the way to baggage claim. I no sooner than had stepped inside the doorway of the men’s…

  • Revue Newsletter Option

    What I have been experimenting with, and which might interest some of you, is the new email newsletter tool that Twitter has made available, called Revue. It’s a little more hands-on than the current newsletter, so while I plan to send it out every Friday, I can’t swear to you that will always happen.

So I can pull in some links from other sources, drop in some text, etc. In essence, I’ll be experimenting with it, but you can expect that the goal will remain the goal I’ve always had with my blog, writing, and sharing interesting things that might help you out with technology, work, etc. 

    You can subscribe, and take a peek at some of my recent experimental issues over at my Revue profile. I hope you’ll consider subscribing, and sharing with your friends if you find it useful!

    I was thinking last night for a little bit about that EULA for Windows 2000 SP3, and some things occurred to me that I hadn’t thought of before. Now I’ll probably get flamed like hell for saying this, but after I got over the original knee-jerk reaction, I could see why Microsoft is doing this….

    Feedly Revisited

    A couple of folks sent me tweets or messages asking me to reconsider Feedly, because they had added a “cloud” feature, where you could use the service in a web browser, exactly as I had described in my post yesterday. So I am definitely going to check that out again and see how it fits…
