@thyng No bueno!

This must be tweeted every Halloween. I don’t make the rules

Thanks for following along!

Following the spooky SEO concepts 🧵, it's time to haunt #Security + #Compliance!

Again, thanks to @BricePraslicka at @SeerInteractive and DALL-E!

First is #KEYLOGGER! A digital lurker sipping your data at every turn + keypress. Shudder! Seen one in the wild? Do share!

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

And last, but not least, is #FINGERPRINTING. It's been around for so long, it feels comfortable, even safe. But when used inappropriately, you realize your very identity is at stake.

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

Finally, Dark Patterns clog up the user experience, harm users with malware and generally slash trust online.

What’s the worst you’ve seen?

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

Things are getting spooky in my neighborhood this time of year. So, why not decorate Twitter with some decorations?

For starters, for my #SEO friends… 🧵

Don’t get stuck in a web of Black Hat Tactics! There could be severe consequences if you get bit!

Got stuck with consequences due to black hat tactics?

@PJ_Cahill I’ve seen a Cybertruck in two separate DMAs this year. I feel pretty lucky.

Sorry, @SlackHQ, I can’t spend 5 minutes comparing near-identical marketing slogans! Had to cancel out of that survey. “Got to get back to work”…there’s a slogan for ya’ ;)

Working on a blog post, and trying to build the best RegEx for matching AI/GPT tools in referral reports.

What would you add or change in this?

Screen snip from @PiwikPro for the algorithm.

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

Hooray, indeed. #GA4 is inching closer to the practical usefulness that #UniversalAnalytics had for years. If you’re looking for help with your GA4 setup, or want to explore an alternative (like Piwik PRO), give us a shout! [email protected]

Happy analyzing, y’all.

[Krista Seiden @kristaseiden]

Hooray! You can now change the line chart view of any line chart in GA4 to Day/Week/Month!

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

Sadly, no drop-down/selector prompt is available, so I just show the options in a list and let the user copy-paste or type it in.

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

A great way I’ve found to allow full management of user settings in Google App Scripts most simply is to show it all in a single prompt and flash a success/error message upon user input. Thoughts?

[Chris Baker @chrisbaker85]

There’s no select/drop-down option, sadly, for known values, but showing a list and letting users copy-paste seems easy enough.
