Amazing what goes on and you never know

- until it sticks and you see the thingy at the bottom.

Tealium 'tealium.hs.llnwd' is slow today - it manages my tags apparently (?)

Also 'bscorecard.research' is evidently busy researching something.

And a few things flicking through too fast to read.

Is all this crap piling up in my PC or just mailing my shoe size to someone?


Could someone clever post a full list of such mysteries and inform us what each bit does?

[cuneus]

Yes noticed the slowness

If anyone at PH had a clue they would probably tell you

e.g. http://b.scorecardresearch.com/c2//cs.js

- morons

Ooh got another! s.skimrsources.com

And a 'uconnect' something.



It's like a deep sea dive into the underwater world of webbiness.

"Among the biggest challenges in digital marketing and web analytics today is the expensive and time-consuming process of deploying and managing 3rd party online vendors – also known as tags. Along with impacting marketing efficiency and results, tags also slow down website performance. Tealium’s market-leading enterprise tag management platform boosts web site performance, and helps increase digital marketing speed and agility by giving business users an easy way to add, modify or remove digital marketing vendor tags without having to know JavaScript language, and without ongoing assistance from IT. In addition, Tealium’s solution enables marketers and analysts to correlate the data those tags generate into an actionable source, and empower their big data initiatives.

Some of the largest brands in the world, including Nokia, Urban Outfitters, The Wall Street Journal, Volvo, Lenovo and many more, rely on Tealium’s tag management software because of its superior technology and marketing friendly approach that favors point-and-click usability over JavaScript coding to manage the analytics tags. Tealium delivers turnkey integration with hundreds of major online vendors, as well as robust enterprise tag management capabilities, including mobile and video tagging, privacy compliance, data validation and testing, enterprise data management, and much more."

Whilst their spiel is a bit cringe, the use of Tealium is one that will ultimately benefit a user, so no nefarious attempts at collecting your DNA so they can sell you things.

I find it funny that people always presume the worst when a third party tool is used on a website, if everybody used Ghostery and Ad-Blocker the internet would be a frightening place of supposition on how users use the internet plus a lack of revenue wouldn't help much either - sadly websites can't monetise energy generated by keys pressed in anger!!!

Ads can be annoying, but I'd rather ignore them and support the sites that I use (unless they are intrusive - like in a get in the way of my mouse intrusive, not like asking me my waist size intrusive).

[cuneus]

Intrusive as in the ads with sound - the ones that PH keep up on serving

Thanks for the feedback, cuneus. Those responsible have been sacked.

You forgot to ask them to take out the crud before sacking them... now you will have to do it

About time - rarely have I seen such persistent incompetence
