Just wondering. Did a search and all i found was SEO black hat. But I want to know, what is black hat practice. Are they the same?

In web design, black hat is trying to trick and cheat search engines int giving a higher rating through "unethical" methods. showing a Google bot one page and showing real visitors another might be an example of this.

I am using the wordpress plugin Twitter Tools by Alex King, and was wondering if there is a way to change the name of the ‘device’ or ‘agent’? (if thats the right word) from where the tweet originated. I tried to change some things in the PHP but couldn’t get it to work.

I am trying to change it from this:
28 minutes ago from Twitter Tools

To something like this:
28 minutes ago from CUSTOM NAME HERE

Any help would be appreciated - thanks!

but anyways .. follow me: www.twitter.com/iamNYEbelle.

"White Hat" means legal, and ethical.

"Black Hat" means illegal and unethical.

I keep seeing news about bad things happening to athletes because of their "tweets" on twitter. I believe that the risks of twitter far any possible benefits. I think the use of twitter should be banned from professional sports in the United States. Thoughts?

I agree. The fact that social networking sites seem to be spilling into professional sports now is pathetic. The fact that players seem to want to use them while playing, is even more pathetic. I think players should only be allowed to use Twitter if it is for a good cause such as charity, or in the offseason. Shaq is one example of a guy that has used Twitter appropriately as he isn’t in the middle of a basketball game with a blackberry in his hand. NFL players seem to think that they can do what they want. The commissioner needs to step in, it’s that simple.
