Solar System
Sun together with the nine planets, their moons, and all other bodies that orbit it, including asteroids, comets, meteoroids, and Kipper belt objects. The outer limit of the solar system is formed by the heliosphere. See more at nebular hypothesis.

Our Living Language : The solar system consists of much more than just the Sun and planets. It contains billions of other objects and extends far beyond the outermost planets. Several hundred thousand asteroids revolve around the Sun in orbits mainly between Mars and Jupiter. Countless smaller meteoroids, including cometary debris and fragments from the collision of larger bodies, are also present, some of which approach Earth's orbit closely enough to be known as near Earth objects. In addition, as many as a billion objects, most the size of a speck of dust, cross through our atmosphere as meteors or micro-meteoroids each day, though the vast majority are invisible to observers on the ground. Astronomers have recorded more than 800 comets passing through the inner part of the solar system. Billions more lie in the area surrounding the solar system, in the disk of debris known as the Kipper belt and in the swarm of comets known as the Oort cloud. All of these objects orbit the Sun at high speeds. Some orbits, like those of the planets near the Sun, are almost circular. Other orbits, like those of comets that make their way in among the planets, are stretched out into long ellipses.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Most popular Edge review
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is a striking handset, taking the title as the world's first dual curved displays smartphone.
It attracts the eye, puts butterflies in my stomach and makes me weak at the knees. Samsung has, at last, made a handset which not only packs a powerful punch, but looks fantastic too.
Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge release date: when can I get it?
Following on from the Galaxy Note Edge which boasted a single curved screen, the Galaxy S6 Edge was rumored for some time so its arrival wasn't a surprise - it's the natural progression for Samsung's curved display technology
It's certainly not cheap though, with the entry level 32GB model rocking a wallet trembling SIM-free price tag of around £700 (around $1030, AU$1320).
Buy Genuine Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge G925F Gold Sim Tray - GH98-35872C at Amazon for £9.95
If you fancy 64GB or even 128GB of internal storage you're looking at approximately £760 (around $1120, AU$1430) and £800 (around $1180, AU$1500) respectively.
That makes the Galaxy S6 Edge more expensive than the iPhone 6 Plus, a handset that already has my bank manager sweating.
It arrives alongside the Samsung Galaxy S6, and the two handsets share pretty much identical specs. The S6 Edge is slightly thicker (7mm vs 6.8mm), slightly lighter (132g vs 138g) and packs an ever so slightly bigger battery (2600mAh vs 2550mAh), but that's it.
In short then, there's very little between the two, aside from the obvious inclusion of the two curved display edges on this device. It makes the £100 difference in price hard to swallow and me question why Samsung bothered making both handsets in the first place.
For those looking to upgrade from the Galaxy S4, or even the Galaxy S5, there are a few compromises for you to consider.
In an effort to get a slender handset with a metal unibody Samsung has removed the microSD slot, blocked access to the battery and shied away from dust and waterproofing.
Many potential customers won't be too bothered about these omissions, but for power users who have stood by Samsung for its continued inclusion of expandable memory and removable battery this news will be difficult to hear.
That said, whip the Galaxy S6 Edge out when you're with your mates and they'll all be clambering over you to get a peek of your new SpacePhone.
Design
I've already expressed my love for the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge's design, but in truth this is a Jekyll and Hyde device.
Place the S6 Edge face up on a desk and you can't help but be impressed with the sweeping sides, rounded metal frame and overall premium appeal of the handset.
These are compliments usually reserved for the iPhone range and HTC's One series, but Samsung has managed to haul its design department into the 21st century banishing plastic to the lesser mobiles in its line up.
There's no question there are some similarities to Apple's design here. The placement of the headphone jack, microUSB port and machine drilled speaker holes on the base mimic the iPhone 6, while the change from a volume rocker to separate metal keys on the left also suggests a Cupertino influence.
With the edges of the handset tapering to a very slender profile thanks to those dual curved displays there's no space for a SIM tray - plus that glass rear isn't coming off.
This has forced Samsung to the top of the handset where it lines up alongside an Infra Red blaster, handy for controlling your home entertainment systems.
Everyone I showed the Galaxy S6 Edge was impressed by the handset's premium appeal and lush curves - that was until they actually picked it up.
While the front of the S6 Edge is beautifully curved, the rear is as flat as a pancake, instantly making the handset feel a lot wider than it is.
Coming from the HTC One M9 which sports a lovely arching metal behind which nestles wonderfully into the palm, the S6 Edge never felt at home in my hand.
Things are made a little more unbearable thanks to the metal frame which runs round the circumference of the device.
On the front it doesn't sit flush with the curved Gorilla Glass 4, creating a rather annoying lip which you don't get on the Galaxy S6, while on the back the edges of the frame are sharp and dig into your hand.
The glossy glass rear offers little in the way of grip, which made me tighten my grasp on the handset, resulting in the frame digging into my palm more.
It's never going to draw blood, and I wasn't exactly in pain, but the S6 Edge is uncomfortable to hold for extended periods.
Had Samsung repeated the curved design of the front on the rear the Galaxy S6 Edge would sit a lot better in the hand. It may make it slightly thicker, but that would mean a bigger battery and no camera protrusion - which in my book would be good things.
Google and Qualcomm releasing a Best Project Tango smartphone in this year
Qualcomm has announced it's helping Google stuff its Project Tango tech into a smaller form factor - specifically a smartphone set to be released in the third quarter of 2015.
Project Tango is focused on augmented reality (digital graphics placed on top of the real world) and virtual reality (entirely digital worlds). Up until now, it's only been available through an Nvidia tablet.
Like the tablet, the smartphone will be aimed at developers rather than the general public - this isn't really ready for consumer use yet, though anyone in the US can buy a dev kit if they want to.
3D space
A Project Tango device needs to know exactly where it is and where it's pointing in 3D space, much more so than a regular mobile, so getting this kind of technology into a smartphone is no mean feat.
Qualcomm says the upcoming smartphone is going to be powered by the Snapdragon 810 and the Adreno 430 GPU, the same kind of setup found in many of this year's flagships.
"We're excited to work together with Google and Android developers to help deliver new, innovative visual experiences using depth-sensing technology on mobile devices," said Qualcomm's Raj Talluri as the device was announced at Google IO.
Today 10 best mobile phones in the world for you
Here at Tech Radar, we check out every phone under the sun, putting the ones that matter through our rigorously vigorous testing process to create our in depth mobile phone reviews.
However, with so many to choose from, we've spent hours whittling them down to a top ten, taking into account the power, specs, design and most importantly: value for money, although we'll always point you in the direction of the latest handsets - after all, nobody wants to be carting around a phone that doesn't get any updates in a year's time, right?
Find a good deal with Tech Radar: mobile phone deals
So whether it's one of the many slick Android handsets, the latest iPhone or one from a range of other cool operating systems, we've extensively tested them all so you don't have to!
Here are our rankings for the best smartphones around, currently available in the UK.
Google's best ever phone is also its biggest ever
OS: Android 5 | Screen size: 5.96-inch | Resolution: 2560 x 1440 | Memory: 3GB | Storage: 32GB/64GB | Battery: 3,220mAh | Rear camera: 13MP | Front camera: 2MP
Google's latest Nexus is a phone that moves away from the usual 'super cheap super-phone
' and into phablet territory with its latest offering. The good news is the screen is also supercharged: massive at 6 inches, it's also got a stunning QHD resolution.
You'll always be getting the latest updates to Google's Android OS with this one, and while it's certainly something you'd have to use two handed (make sure you're fine with that before buying, as it's put a lot of people off that we've shown it too) it's tremendous display, premium specs and great use of Android 5.0 Lollipop make one of the best phablets to date.
It's not cheap, but it's the best Nexus ever made. And, when you think about it, you're not going to need to hold onto your money, as you'll require both hands to grab onto this two-handed monster.
6 Best ways to increase your website traffic
Here are 6 best ways to improve your website traffic.
1. Optimize your content for search engines
To increase the visibility of your website and boost traffic, incorporate content-rich search words that will earn your site more play in popular search engines. Since much website traffic comes from search engines like Google - especially when a user is discovering your site for the first time - you want to make sure you’re employing simple on-page SEO techniques, like consistently stellar website performance, keyword-rich text and titles, frequent content updates, etc. When incorporated organically, these are great ways to increase your presence in search results and bring more traffic to your site.
2. Improve your social media presence
Your social media outlets should function as an extension of your website. Maintain fun and active Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and Pinterest accounts that don’t only promote your content, but serve to build up your personality and profile. Become active in social communities that are relevant to your content. In addition, make sure your content is easily shareable by implementing social plugins on your website (Like, +1, and Tweet buttons) in order to increase your site’s visibility on social networks.
3. Get grabby
When sharing your content on social media or in link trades, think about creating titles for your posts and pages that will be more interesting to readers. Check out sites like Upworthy and Buzzfeed - they are experts at titles that are creative, honest, and engaging without being sensationalist. We’ve researched and collected some best practices on title length and word choices to determine what kinds of titles generate the most clicks. Think about ways you can implement these best practices to make the content you’re sharing more clickable.
4. Paid traffic
In order to generate high traffic, many websites rely on the pay per click (PPC) model, a form of internet advertising in which the advertiser pays for clicks on their ads, only paying for actual traffic driven to their website. Depending on your budget and industry, this might be a good option for you. If you do want to take your site to this level of visibility, paid content discovery platforms like Google Adwords, Facebook’s PPC platform, and Outbrain Amplify can radically extend your website’s reach and increase your traffic. These content discovery platforms can help extend your reach and bring you a whole new audience that otherwise might not have been looking for you.
5. Find your community
One of the best ways to increase website traffic is to become a hub for your industry. By connecting with other writers, bloggers, and thought-leaders in your field, and forming a virtual community, you will be positioning yourself as a trusted go-to. One way to form real and lasting connections is by prioritizing giving back - ie. employing the “I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine” mentality. Participate in link trades with other related site owners. And don’t only wait for others to notice you: drive traffic to other websites you respect and trust, and be sure to participate in conversations in forums or on social media to establish yourself and your site as a dynamic community member.
6. Provide real value
While all the above techniques may help you to gain new readers, you also need to think about keeping the ones you have - and how to inspire those readers to tell their friends and share your content. Create useful, unique, and timely content that your readers will organically want to share with their friends, and that will inspire those who are site owners or bloggers to link to your content. These links are a great organic way to improve your SEO. Use videos and images when appropriate to provide a more dynamic reader experience. Proof your content for grammar and spelling, and reveal your unique voice, point of view, and expertise. Word-of-mouth is still one of the most trusted ways to boost website traffic, and to generate this level of engagement, your website needs to focus on providing real value - both entertainment and educational - to your audience

Now and Quickly Buy A New Computer In A Easy Steps
Here we read and get information about buying a new computer in a few easy steps, here we read that how we can buy new computer in fast way and best computer with few time so let us learn that how we can buy new computer in fast ways, This can let you know which courses that happen to be established to begin up. Find the courses You do not truly use, and set them to not begin on boot up. This could make your procedure.Obtain a pc which includes just options you wish. Numerous check out to purchase machines that transcend their price array with several extras that they do not will need or use.Measure where you plan to place your computer.

If you want a single for do the job, a straightforward, but high-excellent program with Microsoft Phrase or Open Office will exercise (Open Office may also be downloaded without cost, if it will not include the PC). If you want a home Laptop, or even a loved ones Computer system, an easy, but good high quality program is what is going to get the job done. If you are a large media fanatic, and you work with media, an honest to high-finish good quality Computer system is ideal for you. And as for gamers, you’ll want a gaming Personal computer.
If you’ll be using your computer to manage music tracks on an iPod (or other MP 3 player), the most important thing you need is plenty of hard disk space—but virtually any new computer will have more than you could possibly need. (As a general rule of thumb, I suggest multiply your i Pod’s storage capacity by 2–3 and aim for a hard drive that size to ensure you have plenty of room for other things.) When it comes to storing videos and digital photographs, storage is rather more of an issue. But even if you buy a computer with a hard disk that turns out to be too small, you can easily add an external drive at relatively low cost to overcome the problem.
Laptops are far more flimsy (a lot less sturdy) than desktop machines and costly to receive fixed. In particular, the keyboards on notebook pcs are certainly not suitable for industrial-toughness every day use. You will quickly put on out a notebook’s keyboard when you pound it greatly for 8 several hours each day And you will find the price of replacing it could be about 20–twenty five per cent the cost of a brand new device! If, like me, you invest your full existence typing, and you like to work with a laptop computer, the smartest thing to perform is to take a position in an external USB keyboard. Plug it into your laptop and use it each and every time you need to do plenty of typing. In case you spill espresso on an exterior keyboard or put on it out, it’s a mere $ten for any new a single; spoil your laptop’s built-in keyboard and you may experience a bill of $200 or maybe more. If you find an external keyboard means You need to sit way too significantly from the monitor to read through it properly, invest in your self a stand for your laptop computer and set the keyboard just underneath it (or use two or three telephone directories).
Keep Protect your computer from various viruses and hackers
Keep your firewall turned on
A “firewall” is an internal security system that helps protect your computer from unauthorized access.
Both Microsoft Windows and Apple’s Mac operating systems come equipped with firewall protection. Remember, however: While firewalls are generally incorporated, they still need to be turned on. You’re usually given this option when you first set-up your computer, so make sure to say “yes” to this security protection.
You can also easily purchase firewall software programs such as ZoneAlarm, Kaspersky and others. These programs keep evolving (or devolving) from year to year, so you might want to check on the most highly-rated programs ahead of time.
If you’re concerned about security for your smart-phone, you might want to investigate Sophos Mobile Security, F-Secure Mobile Security, Kaspersky Mobile Security, Trend Micro or Norton Smart-phone Security. These systems are among the more popular security software for mobile devices and also provide anti-virus protection as well (see below):
Install or update your anti-virus software
Anti-virus software provides a different function than firewalls. Anti-virus software is designed to prevent malicious software programs from embedding onto your computer. If it detects malicious code, like a virus, it works to disarm or remove it. Viruses can infect computers without users' knowledge. Most types of anti-virus software can be set up to update automatically.
Among the top anti-virus software include Symantec’s Norton Anti-virus, McAfee, Kaspersky, Webroot and more. Like with the firewall software mentioned earlier, you might want to check on the most highly-rated program ahead of time.
Install or update your antispyware technology
Spy-ware is just what it sounds like — software that is surreptitiously installed on your computer to let others peer into your activities on the computer. Some spy-ware collects information about you without your consent or produces unwanted pop-up ads on your web browser.
We provide several chapters in our book Just Tell Me How It Works: Practical Help for Adults on All-Things-Digital on web browsers and search engines. For now, know that a “web browser” is the term used for the program that allows your computer to connect to the Internet. (You might also have heard these web browsers referred to as Internet Explorer on your Windows, or Safari on your Mac computers).
Some operating systems – including Microsoft Windows and Apple’s Mac operating system – offer free spyware protection. Free or inexpensive software is also readily available for download from the Internet or which can be purchased at your local computer store.
Be wary of ads on the Internet offering download-able antispyware – in some cases these products may be a fake and may actually contain spy-ware or other malicious code. It's like buying groceries: shop where you trust.
Keep your operating system up to date
Computer operating systems are periodically updated to stay in tune with technology advances or to fix security holes. Be sure to install these updates to ensure your computer has the latest protection.
By “computer operating systems,” the FBI is referring to your Windows or Apple Mac computer. We suggest you turn on the “automatic updates” feature that these systems provide, so you won’t have to put you attention on them.
Be careful what you download
Carelessly downloading e-mail attachments can circumvent even the most vigilant anti-virus software. Never open an e-mail attachment from someone you don't know, and be wary of forwarded attachments (files, pictures or even links) from people you do know. They may have unwittingly advanced malicious code.
Turn off your computer
With the growth of high-speed Internet connections, many opt to leave their computers on and ready for action. The downside is that being "always on" renders computers more susceptible.
Beyond firewall protection, which is designed to fend off unwanted attacks, turning the computer off effectively severs an attacker's connection – be it spy-ware or a botnet that employs your computer's resources to reach out to other unwitting users.
A “botnet” is a number of private computers infected with malicious software and controlled as a group without the owners’ knowledge (i.e. to send spam).
“Spy-ware” and “botnet” are just some of the terms for malicious software that could “infect” your computer. The most common phrase you’ll also hear are “computer virus,” “Trojan Horse,” “ad ware” and even “worms.” Not too pleasant, but that’s the general idea.
Protecting your computer: Our general advice
Both Microsoft Windows and Apple’s Mac operating systems come with pre-installed firewalls, anti-virus, and spy-ware protection, They’re quite reliable and very handy, so we suggest you “agree” to use them – you’ll be asked when you first set-up your computer or laptop.
Sometime these pre-installed software protection programs – notably, anti-virus software – are for a free-trial period only. Don’t be surprised if you’re asked to pay a yearly fee after the trial period is over. Again, usually worth the cost.
If you’re thinking of adding two anti-viruses or spy-ware programs for ‘double-protection’ – think again.
Multiple anti-virus and spy-ware programs often run at-odds with each other and can cause conflicts within your computer. Decide on the best protective program you’d like to run and stick with it.
Both Windows and the Mac operating systems provide automatic updates for your computer. When you come across a prompt asking whether you want to automatize these updates, we suggest that you click “okay / agree” to the request.
Heed the FBI warning about taking precaution when opening e-mail attachments. You may receive an e-mail from someone named “Helen,” but that person might not be the “Aunt Helen” you know (or your Aunt Helen’s e-mail account may have been hijacked by someone else). When in doubt, contact the person whom you think sent the e-mail and make sure the contents is safe (and that they, indeed, did send you the e-mail).
Don’t panic or grow paranoid. Although you’ll want to take care to protect your computer or digital device, there is no need to grow anxious or paranoid in this regard.
Even if your computer – or even your smart-phone – gets “infected,” there are a number of ways of ridding yourself of the virus or spy-ware problem. (We recommend you follow the earlier FBI guidelines so you won’t even need to worry about infections.)
The bottom line: Relax; take proper precautions; then go ahead and enjoy your computer, smart-phone and digital devices.
Latest Digital Camera
digital camera is a camera that stores the pictures and video it takes in electronic format instead of to film. The picture is of a Casio QV-R62, a 6.0 Mega Pixel digital camera and example of a typical digital camera.
Note: A camera that is always connected to your computer with no storage could also be referred to as a digital camera. However, it is more appropriate to refer to this camera as a webcam.
Digital camera advantages
Below are key advantages that make digital cameras a popular choice when compared to film cameras.
LCD screen
The LCD screen can show photos and videos after they have been taken, which allows you to delete the photo if you do not like the results or show other people.
Storage
A digital camera can store hundreds of pictures instead of only up to 36 pictures.
Picture development
Digital camera pictures can be developed, but you can pick and choose what pictures to develop instead of having to develop a full role of film with pictures you don't want.
Size
Because a digital camera does not need a place for film a digital camera (not an SLR) is much smaller and can easily be carried in your pocket or purse.
How Computer Mother Board Works For Your Pc
motherboard is one of the most essential parts of a computer system. It holds together many of the crucial components of a computer, including the central processing unit (CPU), memory and connectors for input and output devices. The base of a motherboard consists of a very firm sheet of non-conductive material, typically some sort of rigid plastic. Thin layers of copper or aluminum foil, referred to as traces, are printed onto this sheet. These traces are very narrow and form the circuits between the various components. In addition to circuits, a motherboard contains a number of sockets and slots to connect the other components.
Parts of a Motherboard
If you were to open up your computer and take out the motherboard, you would probably get pretty confused about all the different parts. Depending on the make and model of your computer, it might look something like the picture below.
Photograph of a typical motherboard of a desktop computer
To understand how computers work you don't need to know every single part of the motherboard. However, it is good to know some of the most important parts and how the motherboard connects the various parts of a computer system together. Some of the typical parts are described below - they are also labeled in the next photograph:
A CPU socket - the actual CPU is directly soldered onto this socket. Since high speed CPU's generate a lot of heat, there are heat sinks and mounting points for fans right next to the CPU socket.
A power connector to distribute power to the CPU and other components.
Slots for the system's main memory, typically in the form of DRAM chips.
A chip forms an interface between the CPU, the main memory and other components. On many types of motherboards this is referred to as the North-bridge. This chip also contains a large heat sink.
A second chip controls the input and output (I/O) functions. It is not connected directly to the CPU but to the North-bridge. This I/O controller is referred to as the South-bridge. The North-bridge and South-bridge combined are referred to as the chip-set.
Several connectors, which provide the physical interface between input and output devices and the motherboard. The South-bridge handles these connections.
Slots for one or more hard drives to store files. The most common types of connections are Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) and Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA).
A Read-only memory (ROM) chip, which contains the firmware, or startup instructions for the computer system. This is also called the BIOS.
A slot for a video or graphics card. There are a number of different types of slots, including Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) and Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe).
Additional slots to connect hardware in the form of Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) slots.

Keep Your Web Secure From Hackers
Each passing day brings with it news of a brand new leak of personal information over the Internet. Be it credit card information belonging to millions of users or their email IDs and passwords, personal nude pictures of celebrities or even top secret classified government data — the world of hackers has democratized the Internet and its lack of security at every possible level.
You might now be wondering what this has to do with your innocuous little blog or website that does not carry users’ credit card information or nude pictures of Scarlett Johnson.
Well, hackers can turn your nondescript website into a malicious spy bot in a matter of minutes, sending sensitive user data to hackers without your even realizing it. Worse, they can hack into your website databases and destroy or manipulate important information, injecting your content with malicious links and even hijack the hosting server to be used in bot net D Dos attacks.
But enough of this scare fest. It’s not all doom and gloom out there on the Web. There are things that you can do to secure your website from hackers and becoming a target for on-line vandals. Here’s a roundup of the easiest steps you can take:
Keep All Software Updated
Whether your website was built from scratch by your development team or you chose to create a DIY site on a third party turnkey platform, as a site owner it’s your job to ensure that every piece of software you run is up to date.
CMS providers like Word-press, Joomla and their ilk work round the clock trying to plug any holes in their systems and release regular patches and updates that make their software less vulnerable to attacks. Ensure that you run these updates and have the latest version supporting your site at any given point in time.
If your site uses third party plug-ins, keep track of their updates and ensure that these are updated on time as well. Often, many sites include plug-ins that fall into disuse over time. Clean out your website of any unused, old and non-updated plug-ins — they are sitting ducks for hackers to be used as a gateway to enter your site and wreak havoc on it.
Build Layers of Security Around Your Site
Just as you lock your doors before leaving your house and install anti-virus software on your desktop computer before browsing the web, you should also have a security system to serve as your website’s first line of defense against hacking attacks. A Web Application Firewall is that first line of defense. These solutions are designed to inspect incoming traffic, provide and weed out malicious requests –- offering protection from SPAM, brute force attacks, SQL Injections, Cross Site Scripting and other OW ASP Top 10 threats.
Until just a few years ago, Web Application Firewalls were only available as hardware appliances, but today a few Security-as-a-service (SECaaS) providers are revolutionizing the industry by using cloud technology to cut down prices of security solutions previously found only in enterprise level setups.
Consequently, all website owners can now “rent” a cloud-based Web Application Firewall, without committing to pricey security appliances or even owning a dedicated hosting server. Better yet, these plug-and-play services don’t require you to hire security experts or attempt to learn every aspect of web security. (Most of us just don’t have the time to become cybersecurity experts too.)
With hundreds of thousands of websites hacked every year, it’s becoming clear that hosting providers are not sufficiently equipped to handle all website security threats because frankly website security is not within their primary agenda. Now cloud-based Web Application Firewalls are filling that void.
Use Strong Passwords, Change Regularly
This one’s another no-brainier. Brute force attacks that try guessing user-name password combinations have multiplied at alarming rates over the last couple of years with thousands of attacks being detected on a daily basis across the web.
Using strong passwords is an effective way to limit if not completely eliminate brute force and dictionary attacks. Strong passwords are not just a requirement for your email or financial transactions on-line, they are also imperative for your website server, adman and database passwords.
Make sure your password is a combination of alphanumeric characters, symbols, upper and lower case characters and is at least 12 characters long to prevent brute force attacks.
Do not use the same password for all your different website logins. Change your passwords regularly to keep them doubly secure. Store users’ passwords in encrypted form. This ensures that even if there is a security breach, attackers do not get their hands on actual user passwords.
Make Ad-min Directories Tough to Spot
An ingenious way hackers gain access to your site’s data is by going straight to the source and hacking into your ad-min directories.
Hackers can use scripts that scan all the directories on your web server for giveaway names like ‘admin’ or ‘login’ etc. and focus their energies on entering these folders to compromise your website’s security. Most popular CMS’s allow you to rename your adman folders to any name of your choice. Pick innocuous sounding names for your adman folders that are known only to your web-masters to greatly reduce the possibility of a potential breach.
This is such a basic and easily avoidable hacking scenario, that it’s astonishing how millions of websites still ignore it.
Conclusion
Most of us go through life with the philosophy ‘It won’t happen to me’. However, that philosophy has been proven not t be true in the world of on-line
security. A successful attack on your site not only leads to compromising of users’ data and your own information, it can also lead to a blacklisting of your site by Google and other search providers as your infected site risks spreading malicious content throughout the web.
Erring on the side of caution works best in this area. Implement at least these basic steps right away, to avoid being a soft target for malicious hackers.
Now Face-book Messenger Has a Web Version
Face-book users have gotten used to chatting with connections on the mobile Messenger app. Now, Face-book has launched a new Messenger version for Web browsers. This means users can now chat on the Web without being on the Face-book page.
For now, this new Face-book Messenger Web version will not be replacing messaging on Face-book. This means you will still be able to send and receive messages on your Face-book page directly. Rather than replacing the Face-book chat, Messenger is a standalone app separate from the rest of the site. It’s a little confusing if you’re not a mobile Messenger user but could have some benefits.
The Web version is supposed to make messaging easier and less distracting, away from the news feed, notifications, and overall business of Face-book. Instead users can focus on their conversations and pay more attention to the messages they send.
The recent unveiling of Business on Messenger may show Face-book plans to do more with this Web version than just idle chatting. With Business on Messenger, companies will be able to connect with their customers, answering questions, confirming orders, and tracking shipping. A separate Face-book
Messenger Web version could help businesses take full advantage of what Messenger has to offer.
You will still need a Face-book account to use Messenger, of course. But once you’re logged in, Face-book chats and messages will appear full screen. This is a step up from the tiny box used on the Face-book site.
The Face-book Messenger Web version looks like it will offer many of the same features as the mobile version: message notifications, photo and video sharing, and even payments. Users will also be able to call each other with either video or just voice.
All in all, the Web version of Messenger is not particularly innovative, though it can probably be expected that Face-book will expand on the service. Right now, the Web version is only offered in English. However, undoubtedly other languages will become available in the near future.
Top 11 Steps for Promoting Your Live Event with Social Media
For many companies hosting an event means tweeting out the day and time, maybe throwing up a Face-book
post to tell people when the event is happening, and then it’s back to the chaos and stress of planning the event.
While some social promotion is better than nothing, it’s important that you take all of the opportunities social media has to offer in terms of promotion. You may be overwhelmed with details of hosting the event, but that doesn't mean that promoting events with social media is something that can be put on the back burner.
It takes time and energy and you need a plan when it comes to social promotion, but once you map out your social strategy you’ll find that the event will be much more successful.
The more people talking about your event, the better chance you have that people will attend, get your brand name out there to their social communities, and the more likely it is that all your hard work will pay off in the end.
Promoting Events with Social Media
Below are a few advanced tactics for promoting events with social media and subsequently earn your brand more visibility:
What to Do Before the Event
Create a web-page specifically for the event. This gives you a great space to feature videos and images, write blog posts, and keep people updated on the event (discussed in the next section). Not only will this give you a great page to share on your social accounts and hope others share, but it’s an opportunity to earn natural links if anyone chooses to mention your event on their website.
Create a hash-tag for the event. In 2015 this is a must-do, and more and more companies are starting to catch on to the trend. Having a hash-tag specifically for the event will help create brand recognition and unify all of the videos, pictures, and posts that people make about the event. It gives everyone one place to visit, on every social network, if they want to look at anything event-related.
Consider creating a promotional video. Before the event starts, consider creating a video to get people more engaged and excited about what is going to happen. If you've held this event before in the past, use music and video shots from last year to create a collage of what to expect. Once you create one video and have that published on your web-page and social accounts for a while, you can create another video just before the event to tell people what they need to do before the event, when they arrive, etc. This keeps the momentum going and keeps you earning the benefits of video.
What to Do During the Event
Have a contest or a giveaway for social participation. Creating some sort of contest or giveaway that asks attendees to do something on social media is a great way to jump-start higher brand visibility on social. This could be taking photos, asking questions on social media, “liking” your social media page, inviting others to like your page, etc.
Encourage visitors to take pictures and videos. This piggybacks on the last point. If you have a contest or some sort of giveaway, have the rules have something to do with posting photos and videos. It’s something easy that everyone can do quickly, so it’s a great option to earn more promotion.
Take your own video footage of the event for after. During the event you should also be taking photos and video so that you have the option of creating something after the event. This will give you something to use after the event to keep the momentum going and have something to post after the event.
Talk with attendees and try to connect on social. During the event, you should always be networking. Getting an email address is usually your best option, but if there is an opportunity to connect on social media that’s a great connection to make and help your promotion in the future.
What to Do After the Event
Follow-up with leads (not necessarily through social). After any event, it’s important to send an email or make a phone call to follow up with your leads. Connecting on Linked-In is also a great way to get in his/her social circles while still remaining professional.
Update the event web-page with content and graphics. After an event, you should update the web-page you created with new videos and images from the event. Hopefully you will have some attendees also getting involved!
Write a blog post about the event and then promote. It’s always a good idea to write a Blog post in addition to updating your web-page so that you have another outlet for people to share on their social accounts. Promote this using all of the tactics listed above and you have yet another opportunity for natural link building and visibility.
Don’t forget about your next event. Just as a side note, it’s a good idea to pay close attention to who responds and comments about your event after it’s over. Keep these people in mind and be sure to send them a personalized social message to let them know you’d love to see them at your next event.
The Takeaway
In the end, social media and event marketing should go hand-in-hand. If you stop at simply making mention of your event on social media, you’re missing out on opportunities not only for more social sharing, but also natural links and other forms of visibility for your company.
Remember, event marketing does more than just help promote an event — it helps promote your business as a while. For more ideas and information, I highly recommend visiting this article from Social Media Today.

Social Media is Impacting A Best Web Design
Social media has been everywhere these days. And it is affecting almost every walk of life.
It is often noticed that social media has its impact on the off-line
world as well. So, it is quite obvious that the world of the Internet would be impacted the most by social media platforms.
For businesses to be successful these days, creating a social media strategy is a must. And for almost everything they do, they need to follow a process that integrates social media in it. Web design is no different when it comes to this. It has experienced a sea of change since the advent of social media on the Internet.
Social Media Impacting Web Design
Social media has been able to exert its impact on Web design to a great extent.
Almost all the companies these days have their presence on social media. And what can be a better platform to let people know about this than the home page of the business website? This is why almost all the websites have the icons of different social media websites. And a click on any of those would lead the website visitor to the company’s social media page. This is becoming imperative for any website these days.
Attractive Design for Social Media Pages and Profiles
The advent of social media has made the Internet more of a live and interactive marketplace than ever before. It’s no more the same drab thing. In addition to creating an attractive website, it is also extremely important to have a prominent social presence. And for that, you need to design how you want to present yourself in front of your potential customers through the social media platforms.
For example, if you want your business to be present on Face-book through a page, it is important to design the Face-book fan page of your business properly. The same holds true for Twitter and other platforms as well. The profiles that you have on these social media websites need to be designed in such a way that they can grab the attention of the viewers with immediate effect.
Perfect Design Necessary for Ads on Social Media
With social media becoming more and more popular with every passing day, increasing numbers of people are joining these websites. For example, Face-book alone has its number of active users in 2015 at a whopping 1.41 billion. This is driving the companies to use these platforms to reach out to their target audiences. So, they are preparing ads for the social media websites. And the focus is more on design.
The ads are being specially designed for different platforms. The objective is to increase their effectiveness and garner more clicks. The designs of the ads will also play an important role in ensuring that the company is able to gather leads, which should be converted to earn revenues. Moreover, the designers are also required to create different other stuff, such as banner ads, mimes, and so on.
Interactive Designs
Social media has helped to create a penchant among people for content that is more interactive and interesting. This is where Web design is expected to play an increasingly important role. Web designers need to shape the websites as well as the social media pages of the companies in such a way that they attract more interaction from the potential as well as the existing customers. This will help them understand what their customers are looking for and where they are going wrong.
Using Images for Social Media Communication
Social media has been able to change the way businesses are run. They are the perfect field to interact with the customers, know what they want from you, and help you decide how you should plan your offerings.
The designs should be planned in such a way that they drive the interaction of hundreds of customers on a regular basis. A picture speaks a thousand words and hence, they are among the best components for communication. So, most of the social media platforms need images. This is where a Web designer becomes relevant. Attractive images need to be created. Moreover, the images should also be resized to meet the requirement of different social media platforms.
Increasing Importance of Web Design on Social Media
Is the importance of Web designing going to diminish with the passage of time?
This is a question that’s haunting the on-line world after the advent of social media. But that is not expected at all. In fact, the importance of Web designing is likely to increase further soon. This is because the companies will need attractive Web design to keep the audience captivated on their social profiles.
Opera Mini Software
Opera is a Web browser that provides some advantages over other browsers from Mozilla or Microsoft. Much smaller in size, Opera is known for being fast and stable. Opera is available for a number of operating systems, including BeOS, Symbian OS, Linux, Mac OS, OS/2, Solaris, and Windows. It offers the same capabilities of the more popular browsers including integrated searches and instant messaging, support for JavaScript, cascading style sheets and e-mail. Because Opera is so compact, it has been promoted for use in hand-held Internet devices, including smartphones that use the Windows Mobile operating system.
The feature you notice first after installing Opera is a menu or "hotlist" that serves as both a directory to the Web and a bookmark file. The hotlist can be easily removed and you can use the full viewing space to look at multiple Web sites at the same time, either tiling or cascading the windows. You can choose to have the sites you were last looking at restored the next time you open the Opera browser. Opera offers keyboard as well as mouse control of its features. Plug-ins such as RealAudio, RealVideo, and Shockwave can be added. Opera does not support Active-X or Visual Basic.
Opera began in 1994 as a research project for the national phone company in Norway, Telenor. It is now on its 9th version. Opera is free for download to all supported platforms. Opera is the browser for Nintendo's Wii gaming console.
Other Web browsers include Firefox, Internet Explorer, Apple Computer's Safari and Mosaic, developed in 1993 and the original code base for Netscape's browser, Lynx.
Secure Your Facebook Account
Following Three Security Options makes your Facebook Account Secure and Hack Proof.
1) You can enable Login Notification so that whenever any body (or a hacker) tries to login with your User ID and Password, you will receive a Notification on your cell phone and you will come to know that it's time to change your password right now because the hacker has got your password and is trying to log in to your Facebook Account.
To Enable Login Notification
Go to Home -> Account Settings -> Security -> Login Notification. Put a Check Mark on your proffered
option and
click Save Changes button.
Always check your Active Sessions. If you notice any unfamiliar location or device, it means your Facebook Account is at risk. Just click on End Activity and don't forget to change your password after that.
To Check Active Sessions
Go to Home -> Account Settings -> Security -> Active Sessions.
3) Enable Secure Browsing to make your account more secure.
Go to Home-> Account Settings -> Security -> Secure Browsing
Keep Your Computer Dust-Free
Dust bunnies are real — and they seem to reproduce as fast as their namesakes. But you can banish that dust from your PC and get back to work or play. Here are the computer-dusting procedures:
1.Open and dust your PC at least once a year.
Consider it a birthday present for your computer. Unscrew or unlatch your PC’s case and use a can of compressed air to blow any accumulated dust from the motherboard, adapter cards, and cables (as shown in this figure). If allowed to accumulate, that dust can act as a heat-retaining blanket over your PC’s circuitry, and overheated components have a significantly shorter lifespan.
Enlarge
2.Remove dust that’s settled on the fan blades.
Speaking of fans, use your compressed air to get rid of any additional dust on fan blades and within air intake holes (see this figure). To properly ventilate and cool your PC, these openings need to be free of dust bunnies.
Enlarge
3.
Wipe down your PC’s case and your monitor with a clean, dry cloth every few months.
You should never use any household solvents to clean your PC’s case, but antistatic cleaning solutions and cloths are made just for cleaning computer hardware, like the ones shown in this figure.
File Sharing Window XP
One of the handy features of Windows XP (and Windows 2000, for that matter) compared to earlier Windows versions like 95/98/Me is its support for user-level security, which gives you fine control over who can access what information on a system. In this article, we'll show you how to set up your Windows XP Professional computer so you can share files and folders with other Windows computers on a network, while making sure that only desired users have access.
In Windows 95/98/Me, you share data by assigning a password to a shared folder, and anyone that knows the password can gain access to the data. That may be adequate in a small home network where, for example, Mom and Dad know the password to the family's financial data, but Junior doesn't. But it isn't practical in a networks with lots of potential users, since it's hard to keep a password secret amongst a large group of people.
Windows XP Professional replaces password-based security with two alternatives:
Simple File Sharing is enabled by default on Windows XP Professional systems that are members of a workgroup (typically used in small networks) rather than a domain (typically used in large corporate networks). For full details, see our article on Simple File Sharing. There are no passwords or access restrictions and, with one exception described in the article, everything that's shared is accessible by everyone on the network. Simple File Sharing is the only type of sharing available in Windows XP Home Edition.
By disabling Simple File Sharing, you can specify an Access Control List (ACL) for each shared disk or folder. Using an ACL gives you much greater control over shared data, since it lets you determine the specific users that will have access as well as the level of access they will receive.
We'll show you how to configure Windows XP Professional to:
Disable Simple File Sharing for increased security and control;
Create user accounts and user groups;
Share a disk or folder;
Set up Access Control Lists;
Allow network access by users without passwords.
To illustrate the concepts, we'll:
Create user accounts for four people: Alistair, Fraser,
Iona, and Catriona;
Create shared folders called Girls tuff, Boystuff, and Kid stuff, which will allow different levels of access to different people. Boy stuff will be accessible to Alasdair and Fraser, Girl stuff will be accessible to Iona and Catriona, and Kid stuff will accessible to them all;
See how the users access the shared folders.
Finally, we'll show you how to access Windows XP Professional's shared disks and folders from another client computer on the network, adding some information about file permissions in the NTFS file system, and giving solutions for some common network access problems.
Secure Your Wireless Network
1. Login to your wireless router
a) If you've never logged into your wireless router, look up the make and model of the router, and find
the default IP Address, username, and password, then login.
b) For example, if your wireless router has a default IP Address of 192.168.1.1, default username of
admin, and default password of blank. Login by doing the following:
1. Open Internet Explorer and type in the address http://192.168.1.1
2. When prompted, the username would be admin, and the password would be blank.
c) If the router's password is still set to the default password, it is important to change this password to
something else to keep an intruder from effectively kicking you off of your own network.
2. Enable MAC Filtering
This is probably the easiest way to keep intruders off of your wireless network although the least secure.
You can enable a White-list of MAC Addresses and then only the MAC Addresses that you specifically
put into this list will be able to use your Wireless. You'll have to remember this if a friend comes over
and tries to use your wireless network.
3. Enable Encryption
It's important to use encryption on your wireless network. Not only does it keep intruders off of the
network, it also keeps eavesdroppers from listening in on your network traffic. The two major types of
wireless encryption are listed below. Please also note that any encryption enabled on the wireless
router must also be enabled on each Wireless Device that needs to connect to the internet.
a) WEP – This is still the most common type of encryption enabled on most wireless routers. Please
note that this can be broken by serious hackers in about 2 minutes, but will keep out most neighbors
and passerby's.
b) WPA2 – This is becoming the most common type of encryption and is enabled on most new wireless
routers. WPA2 is much more secure than
WEP and has not been compromised yet, but is not
available on some older types of Wireless Devices.
Deciding between WPA2, WEP, or MAC Filtering
WPA2 Encryption is the most secure method for keeping intruders off your network.
If you have older devices that will not support WPA2, WEP is encouraged.
If you are unsure how to setup encryption, MAC filtering is least secure, but easiest to setup.
Page 1
4. Disable SSID Broadcasting
This option decides whether people can or can not see your wireless signal. This is not necessarily
recommended because although this will keep your network invisible to the common nosy neighbor, it
will not protect your network from any serious hackers. It can also make setting up your own devices on
your wireless network more difficult. So, it's good to know how this works, but always use encryption
and don't rely on just disabling SSID broadcasts to keep your network secure.
5. Install Who's On My WiFi
Download and Install Who Is On My WiFi Software onto a desktop computer that is always on at your
home or office. Who's On My WiFi acts as a detection engine by scanning your network every few
minutes to see if anyone has gotten onto your network. People could get in by breaking WEP
encryption, faking through a MAC Filter, somehow breaking WPA2, or by good old fashioned hard line
plugging into your router directly instead of connecting through the wireless. Monitoring for intruders is
the final step in securing a Wireless Network.
Learn How To Create A Website
Thanks for a new free website just launched, business owners and entrepreneurs can follow a simple step by step tutorial to build their own professional looking websites.
Sarasota, FL, USA - October 28th, 2013 /Marketers Media/ -- In this day and age a website is an essential tool for most small businesses and entrepreneurs. It acts as a business card, a promotional advertisement and a sales tool all working together. But in the past small businesses have had to outlay thousands of dollars to get a basic website online.
A new website:SimpleWebTutorial.com hopes to change all that. Setup by long time web developer Brock Hamilton, as a way for anyone to build and maintain their own professional looking website at a fraction of the cost it would usually require.
"Even people with absolutely no experience in web design or programming, can have a basic website up and running in under 30 mins." Says Hamilton
The website consists of a range of step by step tutorials that take first time web builders through the process of registering a domain name, setting up web hosting and then building the actual website.
"Everything they need to know to get setup is in our main tutorials, and then there are a series of 42 additional videos that show users every aspect of managing and maintaining their websites". Hamilton says.
"The idea for the website came after dozens of friends and friends of friends had asked me to help them setup a basic website for their small local business, or for a business idea they had and wanted to test out without spending thousands on web development."
"I started off helping them get a website setup on a one by one basis, but to be honest, I got sick of explaining the same "very basic" things over and over again, so I decided to setup a website that took them step by step through the process, so they could do it themselves." Hamilton explains.
The website is completely free to use, and remuneration is made by way of affiliate commissions for various recommendations. But remuneration is not required to use the site's tutorials.
About Brock Hamilton:
Brock Hamilton is a web developer with over 10 years experience building websites for small to medium sized businesses as well as selected bespoke personal sites. He has also published an eBook
(released exclusively on Amazon Kindle) where he attempts to lead small business owners and would be web developers down the path of building and running their websites for a fraction of the normal costs associated with the practice.
How To Purchase A Nice Domain
If you have a web site, you should seriously consider registering your own domain name. A domain name is a name like "the site wizard.com" or "the free country.com", which you can use to refer to your website. Note that you do not have to be a company or organisation ("organization" in US English) to register a domain name. Any individual can do it too.
Importance of a Domain Name
There are a number of good reasons for having a domain name:
If you ever change your web host, your domain name goes with you. Your regular visitors or customers who knew your site name as www.thesitewizard.com (for example) would not have to be informed about a change of web address (also known as "URL"). They would simply type your domain name and they'd be brought to your new site.
If you are a business, a domain name gives you credibility. Few people will be willing to do business with a company that does not have its own domain name.
If you get a domain name that describes your company's business or name, people can remember the name easily and can return to your site without having to consult their documents. In fact, if you get a good name that describes your product or service, you might even get people who were trying their luck by typing "www.yourproductname.com" in their browser.
If you want good sponsors (advertisers) for your website, a domain name is usually helpful. It tends to give your website an aura of perfectibility.
Registration Overview
Getting a domain name involves registering the name you want with an organisation called ICANN through a domain name registrar. For example, if you choose a name like "example.com", you will have to go to a registrar, pay a registration fee that costs around US$10 to US$35 for that name. That will give you the right to the name for a year, and you will have to renew it annually for (usually) the same amount per annum.
Some web hosts will register it and pay for the name for free (usually only the commercial web hosts), while others will do it for you but you'll have to foot the registrar fees.
My personal preference is to register the name directly with a domain name registrar rather than through my web host. I've heard stories, in the past, of less-than-reputable web hosts that registered the domain under their own name, making them the owner of the domain rather than you (although I don't know if such web hosts still exist today). Registering with a domain name registrar allows me to make sure that I am registered as the owner, the administrative and technical contacts. Being the owner is vital — if someone else places himself as the owner (such as your web host), he can always decide to charge you some exorbitant fee for the use of the name later, and there is little you can do. The various other contacts are less vital, but may still play important roles, depending on your registrar. For example, for some registrars, the administrative contact's approval is required before a domain name is transferred out of a web host (or at least, it used to be). If he/she cannot be contacted, the technical contact is used.
Domain names disappear extremely fast. Many people claim that all the good domain names are gone. I doubt that — but it is probably true that most good domain names that are descriptive of products and services have been taken. If you want a domain name for your site, I suggest you act now, or face the anguish of having lost that name later. After all, US$10 (more or less) for a year's ownership of the name is pretty cheap when you realize that you're securing a good name for your website.
Step By Step Instructions
If you want to register a domain name, here's what you need to do. Please read it all before acting.
Think of a few good domain names that you'd like to use. It won't do to think of only one — it might already be taken (it probably is!). You can find some tips on choosing a good domain name from my article, Tips on Choosing a Domain Name, at http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/domainname.shtml
There's more to it than meets the eye.
You will need either a credit card or a PayPal account to pay for the domain. This is a requirement of most if not all registrars. It will allow you to claim and get the domain name immediately on application. This is not an option (unfortunately).
If you already have a web host, obtain from them the names of their primary and secondary nameservers. Don't worry if you don't understand what these things mean. Just save the information somewhere. The information can usually be obtained from their FAQs or other documentation on their site, usually under a category like "domain name" or "DNS" or "domain name transfer" and the like. If you can't find it, email them. You'll need the information to point your domain name to your website after you buy your domain. Having said that, if you don't have a web host yet, don't worry. Just read on.
If you do not have a web host, you can always allow the registrar to park your domain name at a temporary website specially set up for you. This way you can quickly secure your domain name before it's too late and still take your time to set up the other aspects of your site. As far as I can tell, most registrars (or probably all) automatically park your domain by default whether you ask them to or not, so if this is your situation, you probably don't have to do anything special to get it done. Some of those registrars also provide you with a free email address at your own domain name while it is parked at their site, like sales@example.com (where "example.com" is your domain).
List of Domain Name Registrars
There are numerous domain name registrars. Listed below are just a few, along with my comments, if I know anything about them. Note that the domain name industry is highly competitive, with prices wildly fluctuating throughout the year, every year, so it's impossible to really mention accurate prices below unless I spend all my time updating this page. Please check their sites for the latest rates. (Note: all prices below are in US dollars.)
World's Largest Registrar - GoDaddy.com — This extremely popular registrar (probably the biggest today) offers .com domain names for $9.99 (plus 20 cents) per year (or $6.99 plus 20 cents if you transfer from another registrar). They have a web interface to manage your domains, free web redirection (where people who visit your domain will get transferred to another web address of your choice), free starter web page, free parked page or free "for sale" page, and an optional private domain registration where your domain is registered in the name of a proxy company. They offer .com, .us, .biz, .info, .net, .org, .ws, .name, .tv, .co.uk, .me.uk and .org.uk, etc. Note that (as with all registrars) the exact price varies depending on which domain you are registering (for example some domain suffixes are more expensive than others). Both credit card and PayPal payments are accepted.
Name cheap — This company provides .com domains for $10.69 (plus 18 cents) per year ($9.69 if you transfer from other registrars). Along with your domain, you get free email forwarding, free web redirection (where anyone going to your domain is automatically directed to another address of your choice), free domain name parking, etc. For the first year (or at least, at the time I checked their prices), you can also have their Who's Guard (where your particulars are masked from public view) for free. They have a wide variety of domain name extensions available, including .net, .org, .biz, .info, .us, .co.uk, .co, .de, etc. You can use either a credit card or PayPal for your purchases.
1&1 Internet — This is primarily a large web host that is also a domain name registrar. You are charged $6.99 for .com, .org, .net, .us domains. They also offer .info domains for $0.99 (first year only) and .biz at $8.99. The fee includes private domain registration, which means that your particulars are hidden from public view (done by registering the domain in the name of a proxy company). You also get a free email account, DNS management, domain forwarding and masking, and a starter website with each domain. Both credit card and PayPal payments are accepted by this registrar.
