(No Ratings Yet) Loading ...For all you twitter peeps out there, you might be interested in something Business Week posted today about how Twitter can be used as a venue for transmitting malware, and what you can do to stop it.
As the article mentions, I already have my computer set up to verify all TinyURL links that pass through my browser, but there are so many other URL-shortening sites out there, like is.gd, twurl and snurl. is.gd, which I use religiously, doesn’t have a preview option available. It would be nice if they did.
Another great article, coming from CSO Online, reinforces the short URL issue and brings up a couple more that we should be aware of.
