Thanks to URL shortening and redirection services, not all links are what they appear to be. Such shortened or redirected links take you to a different URL, which can possibly be malicious in nature as well. Extensions like WOT that tell you if a site can be trusted or not can be quite helpful for regular URLs but when it comes to shortened ones, such extensions have their limitations.
URL Uncover is a web service that helps you check how safe a link is without having to visit it. You simply paste the link into it, and URL Uncover will run it by the McAfee SiteAdvisor to check if the domain is a trusted one. It will also generate a screenshot of the website that the URL links to, and pull the title, description, and keywords of that page from its metadata.
URL Uncover is simple to use; when you find a link that you’re suspicious of, be it a long URL or a shortened one, copy and paste it into the URL bar of the service and hit ‘Uncover’. URL Uncover will check the link and load the title, description, keywords, and a screenshot of the resulting web page. In addition, it will also tell you the credibility of the domain by running it through McAfee SiteAdvisor, along with showing you the IP address of the website and checking if it’s listed on Spamcop.
The service works well as far as reporting the safety of a link is concerned; however, for shortened URLs, the service’s Pro version (which doesn’t ask you to sign up or pay anything at the moment, unlike what the term ‘Pro’ may suggest) is unable to load the title, description, and keywords of a website. The non-pro version has a more modest interface, but it actually worked better than the Pro version in our testing, except that it failed to load a screenshot of the website.

Avec la mise à jour de la taille des couvertures Google+, vous vous demandez sûrement comment exploiter au mieux ce grand espace. Parce que nous nous sommes aussi posés cette question, nous vous présentons notre sélection des meilleures covers Google+. Les anciennes dimensions de la photo de couverture Google+ étaient de 940 pixels x 180 pixels. Ce format n'autorisait pas un large choix pour optimiser l'espace. Désormais, la plateforme permet de charger une image de 2120 pixels x 1192 pixels. Il est important de noter cependant que la zone toujours visible de la cover est de 350px de hauteur et vient légèrement griser l'image de couverture sous la forme d'un bandeau.
Cette mise à jour a donné aux entreprises beaucoup plus de liberté et de créativité pour mettre en valeur cet espace. En effet, la grandeur de l'image accorde un plus grand terrain de jeu aux marques, rend l'expérience du visiteur plus riche et permet par exemple de promouvoir un produit qu'elle souhaite mettre en avant.

The semantic web will present numerous challenges for search marketers, but by acting now you can soften the impact and actually take advantage of the opportunity it presents.
Here's how to work now to prepare for that eventual shift.

"Scientific Data to complement and promote public data repositories
Scientific Data will be a forum for publications about datasets, but will not be a repository for primary datasets. Primary data associated with Data Descriptors will be stored in one or more external data repositories. Why this distinction?
This strategy helps us draw some clear lines around the goals of Scientific Data. By ensuring that the primary datasets are stored in external systems, we make it crystal clear that our goal is to help authors publish content that promotes the scientific value and reusability of their datasets, not to control access to data. We feel that this is a progressive strategy that will help promote collaboration and data consolidation, rather than fragmentation" from source: http://blogs.nature.com/

This is an example of providing access to data & content. It presents a forum for authors to develop collaboration and data sharing rather than fragmenting research or keeping it embargoed. One result of such activities will be more rapid and wider dissemination of research to improve the knowledge base available to the scientific communities. |
