Social Media Week

Filed under: The Mind, social media — guycook @ 11:05 am

http://socialmediaweek.org/about/ About Social Media Week – ” Social Media Week conferences take place simultaneously in multiple cities around the world. The aim of each event is to advance the use and understanding of social media in the corporate, public and non-profit sectors.” I’ve watched several of the presentations from New York, via the web and it’s well done and very interesting content.

Another privacy invading monster (LSO cookies) | Eriky

Shared via AddThis I learned about as a result of adding Full Security Suite :: Add-ons for Firefox (learning by doing some research about LSO cookies) if you haven’t heard of those, here’s one man’s view about LSO cookies
He added “Another privacy invading monster (LSO cookies)

Recently I came across something called LSO cookies (read about it, I’m not going to explain them in detail here). Since more and more browsers, virus scanners and security software block cookies, these LSO cookies are a real treat for advertisers and tracking companies for several reason:

* most people never heard of them
* they are difficult to block
* they provide lots of storage (100KB per site)
* they are not removed by your browser, ever
* they work and track you, even with your browsers “privacy mode”

Filed under: Links, WordPress — guycook @ 5:15 am

Compress PNG, JPEG, and GIF images http://bit.ly/2NZIqN is a free tool that reduces page load times by reducing the file size of an image. Easy to use, upload the image (under 150K) and the compression happens and you get a link to download the new image.
