Twitter Supports SSL

Twitter now supports SSL. Unfortunately, like Facebook, you have to opt-in. You can set it using the "HTTPS Only" setting under your Account options.

TWITTER

  1. Select "Profile" and then "Edit Your Profile"
  2. Down towards the bottom of the page you will see "HTTPS Only".
  3. Check the "Always use HTTPS" option
  4. Select "Save" to store your settings.


Do it now - you know you should!



 .....AND DONT FORGET FACEBOOK

To configure SSL in your Facebook account:
  1. Select "Account" and then "Account Settings"
  2. Select "Account Security"
  3. Under "Secure Browsing (https)" check the "Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) whenever possible" option
  4. Select "Save" to store your settings
  .....AND IF YOU ARE DEVELOPING YOUR OWN WEB/ONLINE APPLICATIONS

Configure your website so that it uses SSL. Your users will thank you. Actually they won't...but you can feel smug.
