New Instagram Bug Raises Security Questions
STUNNED.
A Bug? Security Questions? At Instagram?
How can this be?
I have noticed that a few of the people I know in the digital world have become ‘founding members’ of The Correspondent including myself. Meanwhile others wonder about it … so sharing this from and by Correspondent adviser Jay Rosen for the full ‘411’.
I wrote this article in June of this year, about a young man called Riley who survived the Sonoma fires a year ago.
The article has just been published on BizCatalyst. Timely in light of what is going on now just 100 miles away.
Last year the Sonoma fires were categorized amongst the most deadly, destructive and extensive fires in the history of California.
A year later those records are already absolutely shattered.
We now have a fire still raging (60% contained as I write) that has already;
-
claimed nearly 4 times as many lives as Tubbs
-
destroyed 2 1/2 times as many structures
-
has a missing persons list of 1,276.

Here’s an interesting fact … the United States is the only United Nations member that has not even ratified the ‘Convention on the Rights of the Child’ … let alone signed it.

‘w00t’ …. is I believe the correct word on this occasion ….
Thinking Aloud
Sometimes it puts it all into perspective. But if we all did it all the time … well, then where would we be?
It’s probably just me - but every time I hear this Apple ad …I am reminded of this Rowan Atkinson TV show.
If you are a blot user - take a look at this post
As I say in the post - if there is interest in how to make this work for you - I will write it up and publish - just let me know.
As always - many thanks to David ( @blot ) for his help and patience.
Once again - enormous thanks to @jenett for cracking my image in the footer problem …. we are THERE
Been watching the Correspondent develop their US presence for what must be two years now … with Jay Rosen as one of their advisors there is a lot to love.
I am now a founding member. You can be too.
