See What Links Are Being Shared on Twitter

ByMike McBride October 11, 2011July 23, 2014 Reading Time: 1 minute

Recently, I came across a mention of a site that parses your Twitter feed, and tries to locate the popular links being shared by the people you follow. It’s called Strawberry Jam, and, as of right now, it’s still in beta. (I do have a couple of invites, leave a comment if you’re inclined to check it out.)

It’s a nice little service for those days when you really don’t have time to follow along on Twitter much, but you still want to see what sort of links are being shared among your connections. The service, upon login, will grab a list of both the most popular links being shared, as well as the most recent links, show you who shared them, and allow you to mouse over their avatar to see what, exactly, they tweeted about it.

All in all, a pretty useful bit of technology!

Linked – Congressional group says backdoor laws would do more harm than good
ByMike McBride December 26, 2016December 23, 2016 Reading Time: 1 minute

“Today, the House Judiciary Committee’s Encryption Working Group released its year-end report — and the result is good news for technology companies. While the report doesn’t explicitly rule out encryption legislation, it lands firmly on the side of encryption policy critics, arguing that law enforcement backdoors pose a threat to security. “ I guess it’s…

Linked – Summer vacations can cause havoc for IT departments
ByMike McBride May 28, 2017May 28, 2017 Reading Time: 1 minute

Every company has workaholics who can’t leave their duties behind when heading out on vacation. They’re kind of worker who, if the hotel doesn’t have Wi-Fi, will rush to the closest coffee shop or eatery to stay connected, check email and jump onto a video conference call. Those are the kinds of insecure wireless networks that…
