SSL is a level of security that encrypts communication over the internet. It is most easily identified by the https:// in the browser URL as opposed to http://. This SSL feature is important especially on open wireless networks (Starbucks, Random open location, NCSU’s wireless network, etc) where anyone could be sniffing your traffic.

To TURN ON SSL Encryption for the GMail Webapp:

  1. Sign in to Gmail
  2. Click Setting at the top of any Gmail page
  3. Set ‘Browser Connection to ‘Always use https.’
  4. Click Save Changes
  5. Reload Gmail

His article discusses the ever changing practice of developing in a standards based word for the World Wide Web. Now I know for some of my readers out there this will matter very little – however for those of you interested, I encourage you to take in just a little of the discussions that surround the web.

Many people are not familiar with the terminology “Web 2.0″ so head on over to Wikipedia to learn more about Web 2.0. Those of you familiar with Web 2.0 (or after reading up on Wikipedia) may find this video inspiring.
