Deceptive and Dangerous Websites

Yesterday, I posted an entry titled the "The Sad State of Search, or Why I Can't Find What I am Looking For?"

After some thought, I decided that it would better serve the members of ActiveRain and the readers of my blog by changing the title to reflect the most important issues, a present danger and a tool to address the problem. 

My first thought was to re-title and submit which would have forced many of my readers to read the same post under a different title.  Rather than duplicate the post, I want to share the fact that I have found McAffee's SiteAdvisor to be a helpful tool for detecting dangerous web sites and a free, useful program.

I also want to share some my thoughts on blogging.   My goal is to provide useful information for my students, clients, friends and this community in general.  Yesterday's entry was valid, but should have been presented in such a way that the community would benefit.

Hopefully I have learned, and maybe others can, to really think about title and content as it applies to the audience before punching the sent button.

May be I should have titled this a lesson learned? :)
