Twitter Introduces Two-Step Authentication
Twitter has finally introduced two-factor authentication to more securely protect accounts, the company announced Wednesday. The move comes after a number of hacks of high-profile Twitter accounts, including The Onion, the Associated Press and E! Online. Twitter announced the new feature via a blog post, saying it is in response to accounts "occasionally" being compromised by phishing schemes or password breaches on other sites.

Google's Impressive "Conversational Search" Goes Live On Chrome
searchengineland.com
The “conversational search” that Google demonstrated at last week’s Google I/O conference is now available to users of its Chrome browser, and it’s a significant leap in how we use search engines. I’m 17 years now into writing about search, and I’ve seen all types of things that have promised to rev...

Dave Winer
First world problems: my friend Dave Winer is back on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/dave.winer.12 and Facebook won't let me add him because, well, Facebook only lets us have 5,000 friends. So, I had to unfriend someone to add Dave In. I also have to teach Dave about Facebook's lists. Like this one I made of more than 2,500 startups: https://www.facebook.com/lists/10151131074469655
Dave is one of those who are skittish about using Facebook. Doesn't like it for the most part. I convinced him to rejoin so we could talk about his new product which he talks about on his blog at http://www.scripting.com

Inside the big brains behind Prismatic (best noise filtered news app)
I love Prismatic. Why? Because I trained it to bring me tech news and that's exactly what it brings. Very filtered, fast, and awesome news. But Prismatic is just getting started so I sat down with two co-founders, Bradford Cross, CEO, Aria Haghighi, CTO, and learned why they are able to hire and keep so many machine learning experts.

Inhofe and Coburn: Red state hypocrites
Just a week ago, Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe suggested that President Obama might be impeached over the Benghazi non-scandal. Now, Inhofe must watch as Obama declares Inhofe's state a disaster area and promises Oklahomans "all the resources they need at their disposal."
