Upgrade Scoop.It RSS feed to a blog in Empire Avenue

I had been trying to upgrade my Scoop.It feed after endorsements to a blog. All you have to do is after adding it as a RSS feed:

Go to your profile in Empire Avenue, click on Connections tab, page down and click on Add New RSS Feed / Blog

Populate the form with following information:

Current Blog Title: Scoop.it
Current Displayed URL: http://www.scoop.it/u/secunoid
Current Feed URL: http://www.scoop.it/u/secunoid/topics/followed/rss.xml

Where ever you see secunoid, replace it with your own Scoop.It name.

Once you have five endorsements,  click on Request Upgrade To Blog, a prompt will appear to place a piece of code {EAV:16 digit alphanumeric code}  in your Scoop.It post.

Go to Scoop.IT, select one of your Curated topics and click Edit under the Manage dropdown, add the code provided by Empire Avenue, {EAV:16 digit alphanumeric code} to the current Title, click Save at the bottom right.

Your Scoop.It RSS feed should be upgraded to a blog in the next 24 hours.

Security & Privacy Best Practices for users

by Shahid Sharif on January 1, 2012 at 4:45 pm
Posted In: Privacy, Security

I have put together some guidelines to ensure safe online experience, please ensure the following:

  1. Change all your passwords and ensure they are not same across all the accounts.
  2. For internet banking and all financial transactions, try to use a different browser, better still a computer or a virtual machine dedicated for such tasks.
  3. Never have your browser remember your userid’s and passwords, although it is convenient, it is a risk.
  4. Periodically (I usually clear these every time I close my browser) clear your browser cache, visited sites history, and cookies.
  5. Do not provide your accounts and passwords to requests via email, if in doubt give them a call.
  6. If you are not sure about authenticity of an email, do not open it, if it is important they will call you.
  7. Check your list installed FB apps, any apps you are not using, remove them.
  8. Check your list installed FB apps, ensure you are using the latest apps, as old apps had security issues.
  9. Check your FB privacy settings and update accordingly.
  10. Use opendns.org for your DNS as it also provides content protection from malware sites.
  11. If you do not have AV installed, checkout the free AV, Avast.
  12. Everytime you hear about a security breach on a website you have an account on, change the password immediately or even delete it if required.

This list will be updated regularly to bookmark it!
