Hello again,

This week on Pods and Blogs I have been opening up that phishing scam on Twitter, the MOD told me about it's social networking hub and a listener leads us to more philosophical thought.

If there is a page you are interested in or a character you want to follow up and find out more, this is where you will find all of the links. The podcast is waiting for you here.

As mentioned earlier on the blog here, I managed to click on a link in that lead to a phishing scam. After sorting out passwords and settings I decided it was time to refresh my knowledge on the topic and had a chat with , security expert at . Not only did he tell me about the incredible statistics when it comes to malware online, he also let me share this video with you about the current scams on Twitter.

From one type of security to another. The UK Ministry of Defense has launched its in beta. You can take a look at what the armed forces are up to on social networks and see what their bloggers have to say. Robin Riley explained why it is important.

Last weekend I also managed to escape again from the screen and the studios to take a look at the exhibition at the in London. Whilst marvelling at the interactive clever code there, I met who was running open coding classes at the the museum. He kindly took a moment out to chat to me about why coding should be for everyone and the joys of teaching at the V&A.

In the mean time, I was messaged by Andrew Salt via Twitter. He was very excited about the social search site which has recently been acquired by Google. He had some questions for them, so I tracked down philosopher, CTO of Aardvark and Google engineer Damon Horowitz to put some of those questions to him.

Thanks to Andrew for his top tip there which brought about a really interesting chat for Pods and Blogs. If there is a news item about life online that you would like me to explore further, then get in touch.

You can email me at Podsandblogs at bbc dot co dot uk, leave a comment here on the blog or come and say hello on Twitter where we are known as . Everyone is welcome.

Until next week!
