This is a wonderful explanation of OAuth. Go and watch @aaronpk tell you a couple of scary stories how websites handled sign-in just a few years ago, and how OAuth changed all of that for the better.

In an attempt to sway the algorithm, I just configured my Twitter to mute everyone I'm following and only unmute 15 random followers each day.

Do any of you do unusual things to give yourself more control over algorithmic feeds?

Thanks everyone for showing up to the stream. Sorry about all the chat issues with twitter/periscope.

We'll cancel any future streams here on twitter and next week we'll do the show from TEDD Live.

Open Wifi Security (Friday evening rant)

1) Yes, at our @nordic_choice hotels we have open wifi as standard. No Client<->AP encryption (WPA/23), and no captive portal to logon to.

Let me first explain some obvious reasons for doing so. (Often disregarded by infosec pros.)

This is a really good explanation on what OAuth is. Also reminds me how bad things used to be with sites asking for your passwords for other sites!

Matt's tweet thread started with a "year of Linux on the desktop" quip, but if you do 95% of your work in a web browser, it's not really the year of LINUX on the desktop, it's the year of WEB on the deskop.

Which is not for me, but I'm glad it works for him!
