Yoobug

Description

“Yoobug is an online community focusing on IT security.”

This website aims at sharing views, news, research and concerns related to IT security. This means that if any virus/malware/spyware outbreak happens, Yoobug is among the top sites on the web to notify about it. We developed a comprehensive framework for this ever evolving Internet security platform and provided features link posting articles, pictures, embedding YouTube videos, links to let users share the information they have or the questions that they need an answer for.

Gelling well with the other technologies and platforms was deemed important and hence we provided RSS and Twitter integration. The backend interface updates the status of a user based upon the updates that happens on Twitter and RSS feeds. Users could post articles out of live RSS feeds and also share content on other social media and social bookmarking sites using “Share This”.
