Not with that hashtag. Actually, the links generally aren’t questionable. But one of the reasons I try to be careful is that I believe the Web filtering software on my work machine looks partly at the URL. I’d rather not a flag get thrown (and a phone call later) because I hit a shortened URL that resolved to one with a blocked word. Call me paranoid, but I’d rather take those risks at home on a personal machine.

Have you found links accompanied by the #techcomm hashtag that turned out to be questionable? If so, could you give some examples?

I think that Aaron enjoys being the silent puppeteer in the background. Leaves me to either take the heat or taste the shoe leather

I read your recent post about the fact that Aaron really does do some of the posts, so I guess it hadn’t sunk in yet. I’ve updated the post to give you both credit. Thanks for setting me straight.

Thanks for the shout out!

It’s not me doing the posting on Twitter solo; even I’m not that good Seriously, Aaron shares in the duties, whether posting or passing on links.
