TOP 10 REASONS WHY I LOVE FACEBOOK

10. I get to start my day with a few friendly pokes.

9. I get to add a song to an email if I want, thereby adding another layer of communication strategy on to my note. Again, this is really one-to-one IM. You can’t cc: anyone as far as I can tell.

8. My good friend from college who lives in MALTA just connected with me. Along with skype, Facebook makes keeping up my international friends and colleagues a heck of a lot easier (and cheaper).

7. When I “facebook” with my teenage niece and nephew, I feel ultra cool, and assure myself that I can keep up with the kids.

6. Birthdays are a snap! No additional reminders required.. It’s all right there. I can’t wait until my birthday on Facebook (October 3rd, btw…)

5. A lot of the people I know and work with are there. Not all, but a lot. In addition to working with affiliates, customers, partners, friends and family – I can also meet new colleagues and explore bus dev opportunities.

4. For NOW – it is a lot less ugly than MySpace and has less spam. Let’s see how that evolves. I already saw one flashing, vegas-style ad. Yikes.

3. Groups make life easier for a social butterfly like me: Chris Brogan has been quite prolific on the topic of why he moved Grasshoppers group off Facebook and onto Ning. For that group in particular, Ning rocks. For more amorphous collections and/or events, I think the volume I’ll get on Facebook is the way to go. Example – being a good alumna, I formed groups for my graduating classes for high school and college. I always get pulled into helping with reunions. Facebook will make planning a reunion or other general gathering a lot easier. That is.. if people keep logging in.

2. FEED ME SEYMOUR: It’s all about THE FEED!!! I love the feed. What a good way to quickly scan and see what’s goin’ through the collective consciousness. After all, this is a marketing TOOL. Great for branding, exposure and reach! This topic warrants an entire post. Ask Scoble how many people join groups after he joins them. The feed works.

Jenayah siber meningkat di Malaysia

JENAYAH siber dan pencabulan keselamatan Internet di Malaysia meningkat dalam lima tahun lalu dengan purata sebanyak 500 kes dilaporkan setiap tahun, kata Kementerian Tenaga, Komunikasi dan Multimedia baru-baru ini.

NSTP emedia/Berita Harian Online melaporkan timbalan menterinya, Datuk Tan Chai Ho, berkata dari Ogos 1997 hingga Julai 2002, Malaysia mengalami 3,050 kes terkumpul jenayah berkaitan Teknologi Maklumat dan Komunikasi (ICT).

Menurut beliau, bilangan kes yang dilaporkan sebanyak 503 pada tahun 2000 telah meningkat kepada 923 kes pada 2001, dengan sebanyak 14 individu telah disabitkan mengikut undang-undang siber pada 2000 dan 10 pada tahun lalu.

Katanya lagi, antara Ogos hingga Disember 1997, sebanyak 115 kes dilaporkan terdiri daripada pemalsuan komputer, serangan virus, gangguan, pencerobohan, pemusnahan melalui mel, mel tidak diundang dan ancaman pencerobohan komputer.

Pada 1998, terdapat 342 kes, 1999 (728 kes), 2000 (503 kes), 2001 (932 kes) dan bagi enam bulan pertama tahun ini, angkanya berjumlah 430 kes.

Seawal 2009 sehingga kini Firefox telah menjadi enjin carian (web browser) yang paling ramai digunakan oleh pengguna internet di dunia. Walaupun Google Chrome mendakwa mereka adalah enjin carian paling pantas kini, namun ia berada ditempat ketiga di belakang Internet Explorer (IE) dan diikuti Safari di tangga keempat dan Opera di tangga kelima.

IP ADDRESS

What is an IP address?Every device connected to the public Internet is assigned a unique number known as an Internet Protocol (IP) address. IP addresses consist of four numbers separated by periods (also called a 'dotted-quad') and look something like 127.0.0.1.

Since these numbers are usually assigned to internet service providers within region-based blocks, an IP address can often be used to identify the region or country from which a computer is connecting to the Internet. An IP address can sometimes be used to show the user's general location.

Because the numbers may be tedious to deal with, an IP address may also be assigned to a Host name, which is sometimes easier to remember. Hostnames may be looked up to find IP addresses, and vice-versa. At one time ISPs issued one IP address to each user. These are called static IP addresses. Because there is a limited number of IP addresses and with increased usage of the internet ISPs now issue IP addresses in a dynamic fashion out of a pool of IP addresses (Using DHCP). These are referred to as dynamic IP addresses. This also limits the ability of the user to host websites, mail servers, ftp servers, etc. In addition to users connecting to the internet, with virtual hosting, a single machine can act like multiple machines (with multiple domain names and IP addresses).

Topology ( nota utk Form 4)

Ring topology: As the name implies, in a ring topology all the devices on a network are connected in the form of a ring or circle. This topic describes a ring topology.

Unlike thephysical Bus Topology , a ring type of topology has no beginning or end that needs to be terminated. Data is transmitted in a way that is very different from the logical bus topology. In one implementation, a “token” travels around the ring, stopping at each device. If a device wants to transmit data, it adds that data and the destination address to the token. The token then continues around the ring until it finds the destination device, which takes the data out of the token. The advantage of using this type of method is that there are no collisions of data packets. There are two types of ring topology: single-ring and dual-ring.

Star topology: The star topology is the most common physical topology in Ethernet LANs. This topic describes both the star and extended-star topologies. When installed, the star topology resembles spokes in a bicycle wheel. It is made up of a central connection point that is a device, such as a hub, switch, or router, where all the cabling segments actually meet. Each device on the network is connected to the central device with its own cable.

Bus topology: A bus topology connects each computer (nodes) to a single segment trunk (a communication line, typically coax cable, that is referred to as the 'bus'. The signal travels from one end of the bus to the other. A terminator is required at each to absorb the signal so as it does not reflect back across the bus. A media access method called CSMA/MA is used to handle the collision that occur when two signals placed on the wire at the same time. The bus topology is passive. In other words, the computers on the bus simply 'listen' for a signal; they are not responsible for moving the signal along.
