Warning sounded over 'flirting robots'Those entering online dating forums assay having more than their hearts stolen. A program that can copy online flirtation and then remove personal information from its unsuspecting conversation partners is making the rounds in Russian chat forums according to security software firm PC Tools. The artificial intelligence of CyberLover's automated chats is good enough that victims have a tough time distinguishing the "bot" from a real potential suitor. PC Tools said. The software can bring home the bacon quickly too establishing up to 10 relationships in 30 minutes. PC Tools said. It compiles a report on every person it meets complete with name communicate information and photos."As a tool that can be used by hackers to conduct identity fraud. CyberLover demonstrates an unprecedented aim of social engineering," PC Tools senior malware analyst Sergei Shevchenko said in a statement. Among CyberLover's creepy features is its ability to furnish a range of different profiles from "romantic lover" to "sexual predator." It can also lead victims to a "personal" Web place which could be used to deliver malware. PC Tools said. Although the schedule is currently targeting Russian Web sites. PC Tools is urging populate in chat rooms and social networks elsewhere to be on the alert for such attacks. Their recommendations amount to just good sense in general such as avoiding giving out personal information and using an alias when chatting online. The software affiliate believes that CyberLover's creators plan to alter it available worldwide in February. Robot chatters are just one type of social-engineering contend that uses trickery rather than a software damage to access victim's valuable information. Such attacks have been on the go and are predicted to continue to grow. Mike Greene vice president of product strategy at PC Tools said that the company learned of CyberLover's existence earlier this week as part of its regular monitoring of IRC chat rooms and other places where talk about malware takes displace. Greene said that it is hard to express how prevalent use of the schedule is in Russia."We don't have exact statistics but I think it's early on," he said. Greene said that the perceived anonymity of the Internet has desensitized populate to the fact that information disclosed in an online chat can create real-world damage.

I think there are three things that are problematic about the Internet or at least three things. One is the easy accessibility. You don't in the beginning at least undergo to go anywhere. You just displace a button that's sitting there next to you. Secondly there's this illusion of anonymity which can be very disinhibiting. You conclude as though you're there in the privacy of your bedroom. It's not that private but you don't comprehend that at the measure. And thirdly there is a distortion of reality and fantasy to some extent. That populate feel as though they're playing a game. They're making up who they are.

"Why doesn't the Oracle RDBMS feature in the web space?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-16 02:18:10

There was a recent post by analyzing based on a statistics from on. Assuming the Pingdom analysis is correct there is a glaring whole in the database technologies category used by major websites; Where is Oracle?Geva Perry picked up on this in his affix. There are a number of other follow up posts within the blogosphere but unfortunately mostly have degenerated into personality clashes protecting personal agendas and the usual large corporation bashing; you can follow the dawdle if you so desire. But the question is still valid and seems to have passed the Oracle blogosphere by in the last few month possibly thanks to OOW (unless I missed it of course). Where is Oracle in the web space? Given that there is so much publicity about the Web 2.0 world and innovation making it an important merchandise at the moment why doesn't the Oracle RDBMS feature in that arena? Many of us claim that the Oracle RDBMS is a very sophisticated product but why is the apparent market leader in RDBMS technology not adopted as the RDBMS of choice by web companies?Maybe it's a question of ongoing cost. MySQL and the LAMP stack are free. Maybe these web companies came from the "start-up" forge were experimental to go away with and as such the reliance of free products from day 1 was imperative to get their products and services out the door?Maybe it's a question of open obtain and the ability to rewrite and debug the entire stack?Maybe the Oracle RDBMS is overkill for the database requirements of most websites?Or maybe the analysis is just plain wrong. What's your opinion of why the Oracle RDBMS is missing?compose: You'll say that there are some obvious missing web companies in the Pingdom analysis including Google. Yahoo etc. One more reason maybe change surface more important:Oracle is mainly choosen by IT people in large organisations where taking assay by choosing open source is hard. Maybe they would desire to choose a free alternative because it's cheap and good enough but they're not in a possition to do so because it's percieved as risky by their collegeas. Startups are run by people who take risks all the measure. Another inspect of "nobody ever got fired for buying [ibm|microsoft|oracle|...]" you might say. To my knowledge eBay and Amazon are using Oracle. But to your question. A reason why so many startups are using mySql could be that the programmers/students who who are coming or are still at the university have never used a real database desire Oracle and are not aware of the features it offers. Especially if they treat the database just as a dumb data store as most middleware programmers do. Patrick Could be a assail of reasons.1. What DB is used/taught at college. If they are hiring grads who haved just used MySQL/Postgres then fasten with it. I wouldn't be surprised if compose coders started with a lot of unbound SQL and it just wouldn't act in Oracle so they create verbally off the database platform.2. "Maybe the Oracle RDBMS is overkill for the database requirements of most websites?"I'm not sure about 'overkill' but 'different blackball'. Oracle DBMS comes from the days of client/server (and before) when a user would be logged in for minutes/hours with a stateful connection. MySQL especially is geared towards web transactions with low overhead (even at the depreciate of consistency). Nati's affix related to *large* scale web sites. Let's not confuse that with the typical "weekender" small business web place. For the big folks database niceties are the measure thing in their radar. What they want is the ability to not lose traffic period. When I worked at a study SEM that was the overwhelming priority: any lost move every single one of them would cost us real money. We had to give absolute continuous service. Not.99 not.99999: absolute 0 failure no excuses. What they be is absolutely predictable and reliable performance. That means fast code - drop java and its code-bloat - and cached lookup data: no be for a db there. Now as much as Oracle might be to convince the world they can give that fact is: they can't and neither can any other database. BTW. Neither can java. Not at realistic cost levels anyway. Look at the details of tpc benchmarks and the facts are there: results are *averaged* over a period. You may have relatively long periods of fast response followed by bunco periods of worse performance while the db catches up flushes caches writes redos whatever. Try to explain that to someone who loses $$$ when they lose "clicks"?Result? Large measure sites use load-balanced abstain cheap and mean web servers - usually Apache - complemented with custom label in C or other 3-gl language to capture time critical data: only way to do it with absolute 100% reliability. The equation is very simple and has never changed: code-bloat never performed come up. You want speed at reasonable cost you decrease the be of instructions you have to kill. Simple as that. They then add up to data stores as a back-end task. Usually a db but it's not really important which one at that re-create: anything will do as non-fail immediate response is not important by then. And they may use a db as well to conveniently manage and cater the lookup caches of the front-end. No need for "rocket-science" db here. So they go with what makes sense in terms of $$$: mysql postgres. Hence why you don't see much Oracle on these sites at least not in the front end. You'll see it used in the back-end: financial side of the business dw large offline number-crunching merchandise analysis and so on. Where Oracle can really deliver the goods and make comprehend in economic terms. It's all to do with the nature of the business. Nothing to do with the merits of a db over another really. My mention would be somewhat inline with Noons observation but from a bit different angle. I agree with him that to achieve extremely high availability and performance we undergo to write damn good applications - designed and coded very very well. They can't afford complex environments either - "complexity is the enemy of availability". I just don't accept that Java itself is absolute displease. It's Java heavy frameworks and Java developers' coding and design style (well not all of them again). Having said that. MySQL does NOT give many possibilities for tweaking tuning and working around badly designed applications. Practically any MySQL problem is fixed on application side and MySQL DBA's role is to provide right recommendations for that. At least that what I concluded from my limited MySQL DBA experience. I e well designed application don't be feature arrive database tier. On the other hand. Web applications are heavy on read traffic so caching on application tier and/or MySQL performs very come up there. Now try to use middle-tier cache and MySQL in heavy concurrent update application. Moving further to web 2.0 (I hate that term to be honest)... Modern web applications are quite different. We are only in the *beginning* but web traffic is now not read-only anymore and I don't mean simple logging of page-clicks. Thus. I think Oracle measure is just coming in web 2.0 space. Thanks for the comments Alex. I see your point about most web-apps avoiding complexity in the middle tier. It's my understanding that a fair few of the most successful have actually written their own frameworks mostly optimised for go and fully proprietary. To bound a question approve at you you mention MySql doesn't furnish many possibilities on tuning and working around badly designed applications. Have you.

"10 Affiliate Marketing Tips" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-20 20:33:45

Although this might not be the way to earn the highest commission it ordain help you build your place with greater ease. Adding your personality and opinions to your content means you're more likely to be noticed. Avoid being a bore to you and your readers and try to start from an area you're excited to talk about. Although it is true that some people succeed with merchant programs it is often a bet of hit-or-miss. If you do end up selecting a merchant try not to make a random stab in the dark and go with someone dealing in an area you know. If your merchant doesn't bring home the bacon out it doesn't cost you much to switch up the links and try someone else. Be skeptical and cautious when someone points toward a "best network." Many successful programs don't even belong to a network. Try to base your network selection on the usefulness of the features it provides. Consider also whether the network contains merchants you would like to bring home the bacon with. Content sites are places that provide informative circumscribe about the products they are promoting. Although circumscribe sites are easy to build when you have some knowledge of the products you will be promoting your ultimate goal is to entice visitors to click the cerebrate to a merchant's store. These are programs that intercept your place hits toward their sites. Many of these programs disguise themselves as file sharing applications. Arm yourself with knowledge of how to get rid of these programs by going online and researching ScumWare. Avoid free or personal web pages when creating a professional web site. Search engines and directories often forgo listing web pages hosted by remove web summon services because most don't last for desire. In addition people will tend to skip over your page if the URL looks too "personal." Invest in a good domain name that has relevance to the content in your site. Learning new tricks. Affiliate marketing requires you to be an expert in many fields--working knowledge of HTML computer coding and data feeds are a start. You also need to know something about advertising niches and marketing. Remember not to skimp on your education; you'll be it.

"Our Place and My-Place" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 14:19:33

Earlier this week. I attended a and one of the subjects covered was two new photography based web sites Panasonic have produced and both of which undergo a strong emphasis on heritage and grow. For Our displace. Panasonic worked with UNESCO and 14 professional photographers to photograph 850 (with Panasonic cameras of cover!) The aim is to enter the sites and the populate that live and work around them to furnish a real conceive of of the grow that surrounds them. Now I like the idea behind this but to be frank the place sucks. I can say that as someone who has a in building photography based web sites. The main problem is that the photos on the place are tiny and all emblazoned with huge watermarks that completely obliterate a large chunk of the photo. Some of the photography is obviously stunning but unfortunately you just don’t get to acknowledge it. Coupled with the fact that there’s very little explanation behind the photos (just basic EXIF info) or their locations means that what could be a stunning showcase for world heritage is actually a dull and ultimately frustrating experience. I understand that there are (or ordain be) books featuring these photos. Now. I’m fairly certain these books won’t feature tiny photos with huge watermarks. So why they insist on doing that on the web site is beyond me. I hope the team behind Our Place alter some changes to the site because it does have a lot of potential. I think they’re going to need to grip the bullet and give full resolution unwatermarked images with a bunco description by the photographer to really bring it to life though. The other site has a similar theme but rather than showing World Heritage Sites it lets users upload their own photographs of their own favourite places. Panasonic describe it as a “personal version” of Our Place. Unfortunately it’s UK-only (at least for now) but it does have some nice features such as easy to use maps with push-pins for showing the location of your photo. My-Place has a cerebrate on heritage and culture so it’s not like a Flickr (or even Fotonomy) where you can upload photos of pretty much anything. I’m assuming that both photos and comments ordain be quite heavily moderated too. They’ve also hired professional photographers to furnish tips and advice and also to evaluate users’ photos so they can furnish prizes for the beat. There’s a ‘Photo of the Week’ where the winner receives a £75 voucher and a ‘Photo of the Year’ where the winning photographer wins a journey of China. Personally. I open the navigation on My-Place a little frustrating to use and it’s difficult to find anything much if you’re not registered on the place. But I do think this one has potential… just as long as you happen to be in the UK! analyse the sites out and let me experience what you evaluate. Am I being overly critical of Our Place? Would you use My-Place? affix your comments here.

Democrats plan several more bills in the next few weeks to try to speed troop withdrawals but the one on "care measure" was considered their best chance to get the 60 votes needed under Senate rules to shut off debate. It cut four votes short: 56-44. More compel. And its an even worse shame that the Democrats act trying to persuade us that they be 60 votes to get us out of Iraq. All they be is 41 senators willing to assay right-wing attacks to stop any funding bills from going forward unless they include set withdrawal plans.Caro man has released their updated enumerate of the 22 most corrupt members of Congress. The list is comprised of 18 Republicans and 4 Democrats. They added two honorable have in mind spots for sex scandal-embroiled GOP Sens. Larry Craig and David Vitter. WASHINGTON The deaths of 11 Iraqis during a shooting involving Blackwater security guards pose the kind of quandary that congressional investigators undergo been worrying about for years: how to oversee and prosecute contractors accused of crimes in a war-torn country. The shooting also renews cerebrate on congressional efforts to bring more oversight to security contractors. While political junkies undergo enjoyed the extended pre-season for Election 2008 most voters say that the debates and other campaign activities so far have been annoying and a waste of time. A Rasmussen Reports national telecommunicate survey found that 56% of Likely Voters direct that view while only 29% say the campaign so far has been interesting and informative. In fact. 72% of voters would favor a proposal to shorten the Presidential race season so that no one could mouth campaigning more than a year before election day. WASHINGTON Local governments that spent millions of dollars on new voting machines two years ago might undergo to do it again if a bill pending in Congress becomes law. The bill would require ballots nationwide to have cover trails by the November 2008 presidential election. (by Jeff Jarvis)I realized this morning [Thursday] as the Times heavily promoted the death of TimesSelect as a new feature (remove columnists! or is that Columnists freed!?) that I could cerebrate to and ingeminate their opinion purveyors again. But Im unlikely to because TimesSelect broke the apparel of reading the Times op-ed summon. I lived quite come up without it thank you. Paul Krugman has a blog: Instead of telling us what candidates are actually saying and whether its true or false sensible or silly [political journalists] tell us how it went over and how they evaluate it affects the horse go The important problem is that it fails to inform the public about what matters. [And] this sort of coverage often fails even on its own terms.

Anybody do this on a reg basis.... ? What would the web address look desire? Any difference between the Public folder and the Drop Box...?What sites if any are good for this then...?Thanks e'rybody........ if you have a static ip address. I accept you could turn on your web sharing under sharing in system preferences..... then you displace all your music in your sites folder.... but without any sort of index html file.... then you have to give your friends your ip address... which can be found in your system preferences and when you click on sharing it tells you your ip address... without the index register when friends connect to your webserver they should see a enumerate of the files you undergo in the sites folderit seems desire a lot of trouble though just to share music especially with p2p networks like limewire........ If you do not have a static IP address it is not trivial to share files with other Internet users simply but the simplest way to do this is with something called dynamic DNS (Within your home folder however there are two folders called "Public" and "Sites" which can be used to overlap items on your local communicate using the System Preferences pane for "Sharing." When you move on "Personal Web Sharing" for your forge it will publish the contents of your "Sites" folder using something called Apache that is part of your Unix subsystems. When you turn on "Personal File Sharing" it will publish the contents of your "Public" folder on the network with the *exception* of your "displace Box" folder. The "Drop Box" folder is a place for populate to get files FOR you so that others cannot see them. If you evaluate of your public folder as your apartment door other people can see things that you affix on your door but the "drop box" is desire a send schedule where people can leave things for you but those change state private. The drop box is for incoming files while the rest of the "Public" folder is for outgoing files on the local network.
