Details about how eduSTAR.ISP works for Victorian state schools.

After hearing about Services through the Apple Snow Leopard features page, and podcasts such as MacBreak Weekly, I decided to retool the Automator action as a Service instead.

"The popularity of TinyURL provides fraudsters with a golden opportunity to exploit the service. Attackers can take advantage of the system to make phishing URLs less suspicious to anti-phishing detection, since the shortened form of the phishing URLs will be totally unrelated to the targeted brands/websites. In a phishing scenario, this service is problematic to the recipients of phishing emails because this makes it difficult to mouse over a link and see exactly where it's going."

"Well, we are two Ukrainians who studied computer science at a university a while back. Both deeply passionate about computer science, sometime ago for our gradate work we developed an algorithm for detecting plagiarism in content. Once the project was completed, we saw what it has become. It was an amazing and useful tool for students and teachers to check if they or someone they know has plagiarized. Now finished with school, we thought this could really be useful to the public. So we gathered like-minded people to help make our service useful and popular throughout the world."

"Staying in control of information and resources is a critical element of any workflow. The wealth of information online may seem overwhelming, but fortunately there are some useful digital tools that can help us save and retrieve information for when we need it, and make sure it is available on all of our devices. Evernote is one of the most popular and powerful services for this task. "

"Sixty-three random alpha-numeric characters - in this case, generated by an online password generator - are as good as it gets when it comes to securing your virtual life. But as millions of internet users have learned the hard way, no password is safe when hackers can, and do, pilfer them en masse from banks, email services, retailers or social media websites that fail to fully protect their servers."

Twitter has become so much more than the "I'm hungry" kind of service. It contains 140's of what we are. This content is hidden somewhere behind the small avatar and last tweets in a user's timeline. We are here to make it visible.  We take a bag of tweets, analyze them, and create a profile page which show-casts the person behind them. Currently we focus on behavior patterns, Famous words, Top Followers, Links, Replies, Songs, Pictures and Check-ins. 

Web giants like Google and Amazon are notoriously secretive about what goes on inside the worldwide network of data centers that serve up their sweeping collection of web services. They call it a security measure, but clearly, they also see these facilities as some sort of competitive advantage their online rivals mustn't lay eyes on.

Foller.me is a Twitter service that can provide you with the most detailed information about a specific Twitter user in the least amount of time! Here's how it works. You input a Twitter name into the searchbox and hit enter. Foller.me gets access to the profile of that user via the Twitter API, scans all the public info and the latest 200 tweets! In general, you'd read those 200 messages to get to know what that specific user is all about, right? Well you don't have to! Foller.me has done that for you already, and provides you only with the most significant parts of those 200 tweets. It builds up three tag clouds: topics, #hashtags and @mentions, all based on the user's recent activity, AND excluding all stop words! Isn't that great?

"You can't swing a stick in social media without hitting something on Facebook. Same goes for education. You can't talk about how technology is revolutionizing education without mentioning Facebook. It's a simple service to figure out but what about once you become a regular user? If you're a teacher, you would be well served by spending 3 minutes to read through this must-have guide. (We timed it out and it's a bit under 3 minutes. It's almost summertime, you can spare it for us!)"

This neat tool from Google, ChartTool is a simple-to-use chart-making service that lets you simply paste in your data and play around with how it looks. It's never been easier to whip up charts that are actually easy to use and update. In fact, embedding these charts on web pages is quite simple thanks to the embed API. You can even make QR codes in just a few seconds and quickly get an embed code to add it to your website. While ChartTool does not create as many of those fancy 3-D charts that Excel does (it still makes quite a few), it likely will be able to in the future. However, if you're in a rush and need to whip up some exact charts without all the fluff, this is the tool for you.

"Police have issued a warning after reports that more than 40 Commonwealth Bank ATMs have been dispensing large amounts of cash. Police are unsure at this stage what has caused the fault and are liaising with the Commonwealth Bank, which has been hit all day by a technical glitch that has disrupted its online banking, ATMs, and eftpos services."

Interesting programming bug for a machine to spit out cash.

"The oz-Teachernet has been working with and for teachers since 1995.

We believe it to be one of the longest running communities of its kind in the world. Our professional discussion lists currently have a membership of around 1500 people, mostly in Australia, who are educators and education system leaders."

Great Australian PLN for educators and teachers.
