I must agree with Andy. Even big companies like Google have security issues (google “google account hijacking” for an example). And guess what Google asked to the bug hunters last time an exploit was disclosed ? “Please contact us immediatly when you find a vulnerability, don’t publish it on the web before we fix it”. Isn’t that ironic?

Matt does that mean it is ok to link to hacking information?

Did you know the previous owner of this community before Google Tutor was a big fan of Shoemoney? It could actually have looked like a social network doorway page, if such a concept exists.

What was your opinion about the FUD regarding MBL tracking Adsense being a problem, as I have seen reports from at least one peson that the Adsense team are ok with it, though there seems to be a sitaution that MBL is detecting more clicks than are being reported in the Adsense backend.

Would you also link to a site discussing ways to mess around with Adsense?

Considering Googles resources you could make things a little tighter, such as unique pub IDs generated per domain.

IncrediBILL, they’re quite rare and expensive, because they have to store “yeah” and “yer” in DaveN and be able to translate that into 15,000 phrases.

vivekkedia, I was taking care of some stuff at work. I just posted basically all day today though. And now I’m going to get out and actually get some exercise. Duke lost in the first round of the NCAA, so I’m going to go shoot some hoops to commemorate the occasion.

LMAO Matt, where did you get your “DaveN English into American English” decoder ring? I could’ve definitely used one of those decoder rings with a beer accent adjustment knob in Chicago when Dave was slurring away inches in front of me.

I do not see a big future for mybloglog, it was a like a new toy for bloggers, we have played enough with it.

The biggest concern is privacy, mybloglog and google both have one issue, privacy, google keeps it to itself, mybloglog shows it to the world. I had made few simple tools to check these manipulation some months back.

I am working on a bigger thing for consolidating daily blog knowledge, i wish I could write more about it, keep watching my blog .
