YouTube EDU and Twitter Added To YouTube.com
Friday, March 27th, 2009 | News, Twitter, Video, WebApps | No Comments
Youtube.com has just recently released a new section of their site devoted to videos from educational sources. They’ve named it YouTube EDU and you can find it by following the link. Pretty much if you’ve ever wanted to find a lecture or speech given in any sort of collegiate atmosphere, this would be the place to go.
In addition to adding YouTubeEDU, they’ve also added a new feature throughout the video sharing site, a “share to Twitter,” link allowing you to ‘tweet’ any video with just one click. I guess for those of you who share videos on twitter frequently, this will save you from having to do your normal copy + paste.
Google.com Shows Up As Malware!
Saturday, January 31st, 2009 | Hack, News, Unusual, google | No Comments
This morning it seems that all of a sudden every result in the US-based Google.com search engine now is tagged as being Malware, even prompting users to not visit the site due to potential harm to their computer. This includes searches for Google.com (which also for some reason are showing Google ads in Spanish).
Google Fail.
Happy New Years – Google Updated Their Toolbar PageRank
Wednesday, December 31st, 2008 | News, Site Information, Software Update, google | No Comments
I know that I’m a few hours early for most of you but I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Years! Apparently Google wanted to get in on the celebration as they’ve just recently (sometime in the past 24 hours) updated the Google Toolbar PageRank. Don’t get too excited now kids, this isn’t that big of a news announcement….the Toolbar PageRank is considered by most to be outdated pretty much the moment that it updates. Bummed out? You shouldn’t be, it’s only one of hundreds of factors that Google takes into account in their ranking algorithm.
The entire crew over here at AddTo10.com would like to wish you and your loved ones a safe and happy NYE….. Happy New Year!
The Addicted To 1s and 0s team will be on vacation/haitus until January 10th but we hope you’ll come and visit us once we get back from a much needed vacation….cheers!
Latest IE Exploit Has Microsoft Telling Users To Use Firefox
Tuesday, December 16th, 2008 | Hack, IE8, Microsoft, News, Unusual | No Comments
Looks like the IE exploit that was released a few days ago is a lot more serious than anyone thought. How serious you might be asking? Well, it’s serious enough to get Microsoft flooding media outlets advising users to switch to ‘an alternative browser.’ That’s pretty intense!
According to slashdot,
The flaw, which affects all versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer, is manifested via malware and has infected over 6000 sites thus far. Microsoft states: ‘The vulnerability exists as an invalid pointer reference in the data-binding function of Internet Explorer. When data binding is enabled (which is the default state), it is possible under certain conditions for an object to be released without updating the array length, leaving the potential to access the deleted object’s memory space. This can cause Internet Explorer to exit unexpectedly, in a state that is exploitable.’”
Damage control!
