Time Magazine Picks McAfee SiteAdvisor for "50 Coolest Websites"
A brief diversion from data driven stories. This week, McAfee SiteAdvisor joined Digg, YouTube, Zillow and 46 others to make up Time Magazine's "50 Coolest Websites" list. From Time:
How do we select our finalists? We evaluate hundreds of candidates—some suggested by readers, colleagues and friends, others discovered during countless hours of surfing. Many of this year's choices are shining examples of Web 2.0: next-generation sites offering dynamic new ways to inform and entertain, sites with cutting-edge tools to create, consume, share or discuss all manners of media, from blog posts to video clips.
According to Time, McAfee SiteAdvisor:
...aims to keep you out of trouble — or, to be precise, stop you from clicking through to websites where spyware, worms, and other cyber threats lurk...Why would you need this? Because simply clicking through to a suspect site can wreak havoc on a PC, and risky sites comprise a growing portion of search returns.
We couldn't agree more. Thanks, Time.
