Private notes via public sources

Posted by John Dalziel on Friday, December 10, 2010, In : Security 

Communication via social networks - twitter, facebook etc. - where only authorized users will be able to read.

I haven't got my head around this resource and its full potential within the learning environment but, being able to communicate via social networks with a degree of privacy, has to be attractive.

PDFProtect

Posted by John Dalziel on Saturday, November 6, 2010, In : Security 

pdfs are one of the most popular document formats as, regardless of platform (apple, windows, lynux etc.), they can be accessed using free pdf readers.

Relive one of its most-enduring pop culture elements of the classic TV show "Mission: Impossible". What worries me is the large number of you who have no idea what I'm talking about!

Named "This Message Will Self Destruct", this website empowers users to send out an eMail messages that will be deleted upon being delivered and read just once by the recipient.
