TweetDeck is one of the most used clients for intensive users of Twitter from your desktop, either Windows, Mac or Linux, since it is based on Adobe AIR technology. Already, a client is fairly complete, but allows convenient access to your contacts, but as has been released Version 0.34.1.

In this update, we found several integrations such as Google Buzz or foursquare, but if you do not use the latter, also allow you geolocalizarte TweetDeck as you can see in the video above showing all the new concepts.

On the other hand, have added new shorten URLs to which we already had and upload video directly from a file or live from the webcam to the server TwitVid.

Also we will have global filters in our columns to filter unwanted tweets, in addition to program messages when they want. Very useful utility to send messages at a time when we are unable to do so or simply because we do not trust our memory. Interesting for business Twitter accounts.

Finally, since we publish TweetDeck in services like Wordpress or Tumblr and other services that are compatible with the Twitter API.

It has raised a new alarm that affects many thousands of people around the world with a blog runs on WordPress (the latest version, 2.9.2 is vulnerable too) and several blogs have been attacked and are now infected distributing malware without the operators of these sites have been noticed. The worst thing is that it affects self-hosted version (installed on your own server) of WordPress.

Apparently this vulnerability has to do with SQL injection or some failure of a theme or plugin, it could also be because of some outdated as Magpie library that ships with WordPress. For now only speculation because the problem has not been fully identified.

The problem arises when the field in the table wp_options siteurl is replaced by a HTML code. This field holds the URL of the blog (ie, that field is not designed to accommodate HTML code), so that being accomplished the attack, possibly the affected site longer to load.

The highest number of cases that have been presented so far has to do with the company Network Solutions, although other sites have also been affected VPS.net so probably this attack is independent of the company that provides hosting for the hole security is in the same WordPress and not a default configuration or hardware.

It is important to be vigilant and continuously review the sites to ensure there are no problems, in case of finding an abnormal behavior, it is advisable to check the database and especially the siteurl field.

For now Sucuri Security Labs and Trend Micro have reported this attack, Trend Micro announced that its antivirus detects the problem as TROJ_BUZUS.ZYX (see more information on this virus), which leads to malware infection, and in some cases may install a fake antivirus on the computer of users.

Update: In addition to spreading malware, the infection can get them to generate backdoor Trojans (backdoors), ie that administrators and users could see a normal version of the site, but search engines actually could be seeing another version of site , which is especially dangerous and harmful to the issues related to SEO.

Automattic, the company behind the development of our beloved WordPress, is debuting a service that allows users to make backups (backups) of all your blogs easily, and most importantly, in real time. With the prestige of a reputable company like Automattic, VaultPress is presented as an alternative to the typical data backup methods. Anyone who is familiar with WordPress, you know that there are many plugins that help make backup copies of information (of not only the database, but also files). The disadvantage is that many users forget to backup, or simply store the backups on the same server as the blog. If there is any problem with your ISP, it gets ugly.

VaultPress is a service designed to make all these backups automatically, constantly monitoring, and a team of "experts" who are to help in any contingency. This service is in beta and records are limited by invitation. It should be noted on a waiting list and wait to contact us to complete the registration.

There is a form where they ask things about us (experience in blogging, how many blogs you want to store, how much would pay for the service, etc.). In the beta service is free, but the suggested price is $ 25 USD per month, which I think is ridiculously excessive.

For those interested VaultPress a viable option, you can use WordPress Automatic Backup, which saves backups every day in an Amazon S3 account. The plugin is free and Amazon prices are quite low. From personal experience recommend this plugin that works automatically and saves backups every month.

Although in recent years if they have sprung from the pages where you could download pre-designed templates for Blogger, the options that let you configure were still too limited, but that will change from now.

Google launched a private beta of its new feature for Blogger, "Blogger template designer" who has been very well received in the testers and is expected to be launched soon so that everyone can access it.

Thanks to Blogger Template Designer, we can customize the template you choose, changing colors, headers, sidebar situation etc ...

The truth is that Google in this comes a bit late because there are services like Bligoo, in Spanish, which makes this time offering the full personalize blog template.

The blogs hosted on WordPress (ie blogs whose URLs end in wordpess.com) now have the service integrated PubSubHubbub. For those not familiar with this concept, it is a new way with which it comes to the Web in real time. The aim is to provide instant updates when new content through a hub. Regarding the traditional way of providing updates (typically using feeds in either RSS or Atom) PubSubHubbub offers many advantages as for example, prevent server resources spent inefficiently, as it prevents the process of doing pings (requests) to check for changes. By incorporating this technology will be easier to distribute content, and do it methodically.

While this type of update PUSH (acronym to shorten the name) service are not yet implemented in many places, incorporating WordPress.com blogs, will surely be an interesting test to yield positive results, will leave many positive things. Perhaps in the near future deployments will begin to see different types of content.

For those with WordPress blogs and independent housing, there is a plugin called PuSHPress, which integrates easily into any PubSubHubbub blog. No further extra settings, and if it manages the feed with FeedBurner, the process is even easier.
