Regarding:

16. Facebook pages and groups are great for sharing information- not for local marketing.

Facebook has developed tools that make it useful for local and regional marketing. But I still believe it is best used to augment your own site. Don't rely on a Facebook page or group alone.

Nick...

I'd just assume they were all at fault at this point. I don't have any proof who to blame.

The key might be to look at who gets compromised. It starts with those using some of the more obscure tools. I noticed a couple were using bots to collect tweets to auto-RT.

The others getting caught made the mistake of clicking the problem links.

Thanks Chuck! I can’t believe this nonsense happens. Do you have any tips to figure out which of the “connections” was the culprit? I’d like to be able to trust things like twitterfeed, for examples. Are these connections allowing the spammers in? Or is it spammers compromising them, therefore me. Kind looking for someone to oust here.

Thanks Twitter_Tips. A very good point that readers need to make sure their virus scans are up-to-date.

I haven't had that password problem this month. I wasn't hit by the latest problem, but followed the above steps to make sure they worked. I was able to successfully change the password of my account and a pair I manage. Those who were hit by the problem were also able to change their passwords.

Easy to follow directions, thanks for the tip. I was brought to your post by @lakelandvision after encountering a spam that I opened.

Step 5 should be done if only if blocking access doesn’t work because you may lose access to your account by changing your password at the present time. http://j.mp/OIGnU
Also, if your computer is infected (which has happened to Twitter users in the past), you need to get the virus off your computer to block access to your account.

Very good tune, it’s almost like you knew how much I like Squeeze – oh yeah, you probably do (or did)! @Tony – I agree “Sympathy….” would be an excellent candidate for a cappella treatment. @Chuck – I like the Dartmouth & U of Mich. versions best, for obvious reason. I’m unchanged in this regard! Almost could “tempt” me to go back to college, which reminds me of when you went back and took a class at The Ville and relayed to me how many great distractions there were. Email me when you get the chance. Hope the wife & kids (Jess too) are good! For my part, Sarah, Rachel & Jackie are all well and Steph still puts up with me!

This is great. Awesome tune and performed wonderfully a Capella…Now if they can do the same with “Sympathy for the Devil”

Try this on for size — Franz Schubert’s ‘Death and the Maiden String Quartet.’ Preferably played by the Juilliard String Quartet. A sublime piece of classical music.
