Waiting for the celebration of 500 million users of Facebook

The world's largest social networks, Facebook preparing to celebrate the number of its members to break the half billion or five hundred million people.

According to tech site TechCrunch, as part of the celebrations, Facebook asks its employees to upload the photos they were celebrating the achievement of that and give thanks to all Facebook users.

According to TechCrunch, Facebook employees is rising all the photos on a site account collaboration and file sharing services Drop.io. Some of them are shown by TechCrunch.

AllFacebook.com also got a glimpse of the source, that Facebook is preparing a massive party to welcome an increasing number of users who are so big.

Since some time ago, several parties are predicting that Facebook has surpassed 500 million figure. In fact, the film The Social Network director David Fincher plots that tell the early establishment of Facebook also choose the tag "You Do not Get to 500 Million A Few Friends Without Making Enemies."

This movie trailer was recently quoted in YahooMovie site. It's just that Facebook is usually done in conjunction with the celebration of events and other important announcements Facebook.

Increasing the number of Facebook users reaching 500 million people, also spelled out very quickly. Previously, Facebook has just announced the number of users as much as 400 million, five months ago. And Facebook also just take five months to reach users increased from 300 million to 400 million people.

In the meantime, Indonesia is the third largest country that uses these social networks under the United States and England. It is estimated that Indonesia would soon occupy the second rank after the United States.

Chrome,IE 8,Opera and Firefox,which is the best?

The most widely used Internet Explorer, but Firefox is still the most popular. Opera is more famous used in mobile devices / smartphones. Meanwhile, Chrome and Safari is only used a "handful" fanatic user. To test the ability which is often done, Firefox is almost always ranked at the top and IE definitely youngest numbers.

Performance: faster browsing

Since the last test, IE8 and Safari do not offer so many versions leaps almost no new features. Meanwhile, Opera 10:50 Beta version looks different from previously tested with the final version of its Opera. Like Firefox and Chrome, Opera technical look and a lot of progress, especially in terms of performance.

When Chrome and Safari winner with a fast-Engine WebKit, Opera is now able to pursue both. Completion of the Rendering-Engine-Engine Presto and JavaScript talking about producing a turbo speed. With Benchmark-Test, Peacekeeper, Safari and even behind

This benchmark test various JavaScript functions that are often used by complex websites. These advantages were also seen while browsing. Opera can display pages faster.

Thanks to Java-Script-Engine V8 better, Chrome is still the fastest. In addition, Google's browser is more efficient to consume resources that give the best overall performance. In this test, Firefox 3.6 did show better results than ever before. However, their performance was no longer stands out compared to other browsers. The slowest browser retained by IE8. However, at least Microsoft's browser uses RAM.

Display: Smoking is not a problem

The browser should not only display web content fast, but also without error. Testing with CSS2.1-Suite from the Web Standards Consortium, W3C, indicate that the browser is not so problematic with the old web standards. From about 7000 tests conducted separately, not many display an error and the difference is not too meaningful.

Conditions are different with the new standard of HTML5 and CSS3. Here, IE8 has a major problem, while other browsers provide excellent support for this specification. Similarly, the Acid3-Test, a test to show the elements of CSS and JavaScript. This new test will be supported by IE at the upcoming Version 9.

However, IE8 quite well with functions, such as the Address Bar that offers more suggestions sorted URLs or Tabs can be grouped into the group. Indeed, features like Quick Info and Web slices have not offered by other browsers. Meanwhile, Firefox 3.6 is not much to offer new features, except the Tab Bar a more optimal and an Integrated Plug-ins-Check, which will report the version of Flash or Java that have not been updated. Renewal likely offered in four versions later.

However, with add-ons are available, you can already feel the Firefox version is coming.

Google itself has taken a big development in Chrome. Currently, the Chrome version 4 already supports about 3,000 add-on that can complete with features such as Chrome AdBlocker or Password Manager.

Plug-ins are more practical than that offered by Opera or IE8. In Opera, the plug-in that it is not necessary because the Opera 10:50 version offers nearly everything needed by the surfer.

New interface is quite impressive. When you are accustomed to, the display may facilitate a user in the surf. In addition, Opera also supports the features of Windows 7 Aero Peek (a previews of all open Tabs on the taskbar) and Jumplist to access websites which are often visited. Previously, only IE8 can do it.

Data Privacy: "hide" while browsing

Opera also make improvements for browser security and integrating the most recent in a Privacy Mode. With this feature, users can surf without saving Opera Cookies or History of websites you have visited. Additionally, Opera offers the most effective option to handle active elements, such as JavaScript or remove the traces of the browser. If Firefox and IE8 offers more options, Safari and Chrome lacking in privacy and security aspects. Reportedly, Google will remove Browser-ID in the upcoming version 4.1. With that ID, the user can be uniquely identified.

The big difference is indicated by the Integrated test-Phishing Filter to block malicious websites. When Firefox, Chrome, and Safari is only able to detect half of phishing websites that are tested, Opera is able to detect approximately 75 percent. The worst results given by the IE8 filter. Than half of the listed websites, the browser is passed instead of four websites that are blocked by other browsers. Two of the website is very dangerous because it threatens even a PC with a virus. Sure troublesome when this happens.

Facebook is the most favorite places to infected files.

According to reports AppRiver, more than ten percent of spam messages that circulated during the last six months, containing malware. In the same period, nearly 45 percent of junk emails that come from Europe.

AppRiver, vendor email and web security home Florida, United States states, the malware via email back to bloom after the last few years to dim. "During the 30 days terakhor, quarantine AppRiver has more than 45 million messages containing the virus," the report AppRiver, as quoted from Softpedia, July 3, 2010.

In total, AppRiver mention, since early 2010, counted 11.2 percent of email spam containing malware and trojans. The most prevalent trojan is the versions of Kryptik or Bredolab. Malware hiding in the PDF file is also included in the list.

From the source side, AppRiver noted that Europe produces 44.7 percent from 26 billion messages to their quarantine in the last six months. "This is not surprising, because according to statistics, half of the 10 largest spam producing countries are the countries of Europe," referred to in its report AppRiver.

Europe itself, followed by Asia with 26.3 percent and South America with 12.4 percent. North America and Australia-Oceania only supply spam as much as 13.9 and 2.3 per cent.

The security researchers also noted that Facebook is the most favorite places to hook the victim perpetrator to open infected files. "During the last six months, we saw a number of trends in which attackers take advantage of Facebook as a sham," said AppRiver.

"Sometimes it is difficult to report any incidents because there are huge numbers and have a high level of similarity that are difficult to distinguish," said AppRiver

In Firefox version 3.6.4, Mozilla is adding features 'out-of-process plug-ins' (OOPP). OOPP is a feature designed to protect the browser to continue running when the crash occurred on a plugin.

If Flash Player plugin types, Quick Time or Silverlight experience crashes or does not respond for more than 10 seconds, then the Firefox 3.6.4 will display a message informing that the browser has turned off the plugin. But apparently this OOPP features cause problems in some users.

"After the release of Firefox 3.6.4, we heard from some users, especially those using older computers, they expect a longer time when the plugin does not provide a response, especially when they're playing games," wrote the director of Firefox, Mike Beltzner, the blog Mozilla official.

"They felt the default time limit of 10 seconds was too short," he added.

"Fifefox 3.6.4 has been released and we see more and more reports that some users can not play because of Farmville Farmville cause the browser hangs for a long time and trigger us off," said Mozilla developer, Justin Dolske.

Then what is the solution? Users are welcome to update Firefox to version 3.6.6 which has a longer time limit, namely 45 seconds. Simply download the new edition or by selecting 'Check for Updates' from the menu 'Help' in the browser.

Another solution, as quoted from Computer World, Wednesday (06/30/2010), is to disable OOPP. This step will turn off crash protection features which are owned by Firefox.

Bing would remove Google from iphone 4G/HD?

Microsoft reportedly was busy lobbying for Apple. It is said that this effort to get rid of the default system Google search on mobile phones iPhone 4G/HD future.

These rumors continue to grow in various sites and blogs before the event takes place yearly Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2010) that this year Apple held in San Moscone West, San Francisco, 7-11 June.

Many were speculating, Google's coup reasons, either because they developed the Android business the company began a big business and undermine Apple applications.

But on the other hand, not so easy to remove Google from Apple products. Many existing core iPhone applications under Google's control, such as search, maps, and of course: YouTube.
So far Google can maintain its search engine - search and advertising - and become the default in the iPhone, none other than Apple for daring to pay U.S. $ 100 million for the contract year.

With that much money, of course, Apple will still stick with Google. Unless, Microsoft dare pay more, or at least equal in number.

The rumors were probably not entirely correct. For according to Kara Swisher, The Wall Street Journal journalist from San Francisco bureau, writes that the approach taken so that none other than Microsoft's search engine can be a third option in the iPhone - not a replacement for Google.

As is known, other than Google, so there is also Yahoo's search engine second option in the iPhone. Bing wants Microsoft to be one of the options. In addition, the company is now led by Steve Ballmer wants to map existing in the Bing could be more integrated with the iPhone.

But who knows, it could be rumor or gossip just facts pending. Reportedly, all the facts will be revealed at Apple WWDC 2010 held next month.

Safari 5

In between the launch of Apple iPhone 4, at a meeting Apple's biggest developers, the 2010 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in California, Apple also introduced new versions of Web browsers, Safari 5.

Apple's Safari 5 claimed Apple had 30 percent faster performance than Safari 4. In fact, the electronics company that Steve Jobs was raised from 34 years ago that dared to claim the speed of Safari can be two-five times faster than Mozilla Firefox 3.6 and three per cent faster than Google Chrome 5.0.

According to Cnet page, the speed can be achieved because of Apple's Safari 5 adopts DNS prefetching, which is explained technique addresses or domains in the tabulation of Web addresses, much like looking in search engines.

Reportedly, not only supported by Google, for this technology, Apple also took Microsoft Bing DNS prefetching to speed up the process. In addition, in the course, speed is aided by an increase or improvised Safari's JavaScript engine, that is Nitro.

In addition to relying on speed, there are a number of new features embedded in the company's Macintosh creator of the brand new browser.

Facebook is still number one

Though under heavy criticism lately associated system user privacy, Facebook was even more formidable in the virtual domain.

According to data released by Google's web traffic, Friday, May 28, 2010, the world's largest social networking is now visited by 540 million people per month, or more than 35 percent of the population of Internet users.

According to Google Ad Planner global data provided by Double Click, about 570 billion pages on Facebook.com visited by people.

The number was eight times higher than Yahoo.com, now in second position. According to Google, Yahoo.com just received 490 million visitors per month.

As quoted from the website of The Street, data from Double Click (company data provider for Internet advertisers who recently diakusisis by Facebook) announced the 1000 most visited sites on the Internet.

However, perhaps to maintain objectivity, the Google-owned company, does not include the Google ranking as well as two other Google products: YouTube and Gmail, into the list.

After Facebook and Yahoo, Live.com from Microsoft came in third place with 370 million unique visitors and 39 billion page views. Then, followed by Wikipedia, MSN.com, Microsoft.com, Blogspot.com, Baidu.com, GG.com, and Mozilla.com.

From the figures obtained, showing that Facebook is the king of social networking sites. While closest rivals, Twitter, April and pocketed 96 million unique visitors and 5.4 billion page views.

These data support the statement that claims that Facebook Facebook has not been abandoned by its members although a number of politicians, consumer groups, and advocates want a more rigorous system of protection for personal information is included in the Facebook account.

Until Friday, only 23 515 people who register on the site 'We're Quitting Facebook' as one form of campaign "throw" social networking service with protests scheduled to be conducted on 31 May.

YouTube dressing

YouTube dressing. To make it more appealing, a video sharing site owned by Google is releasing substantial design changes, which aims to create a cozy view of the user.

YouTube engineers say they modify the site by studying the habits of people in accessing YouTube. Some features changed much more simple. The new design was tested since January on 10 percent of YouTube users, but only officially launched today to all users.

One feature that is removed is fun user ranking on a previous video that uses the sign of 5 stars. This time, there are only two thumb marks 'like' and 'dislike' below video.

Also there is a change when I saw the video. Users now can only choose the size of the video only and video quality is automatically determined by YouTube. Whereas the recommended video list on the right screen, longer than the previous.

Currently, each user on average saw a video over 15 minutes per day on YouTube. YouTube Party apparently wants to extend the duration so as to make new designs to make accessed more at home.

According to Shiva Rajaraman, Senior Product Manager for Google, that goal can be attained with the YouTube web pages simpler.

"We're trying to gather information in one place and hide the things that are less important

Finally, Google can focus to make the Buzz a threat to Twitter and Facebook.

In an effort to address mounting criticism about privacy issues in Google's Buzz, the search engine giant will ask the user to confirm Buzz or change their privacy settings tomorrow.

In a statement which will be announced soon, Google will recognize that they are not doing things properly. As a result, a number of improvements privacy issues arise since Buzz was launched.

However, many users are not affected by this change because they do not activate Google Buzz privacy issues before the update was presented.

To fix the above problem, tomorrow Google will ask the user to confirm Buzz or alter Google's Buzz. Improvements will be presented in stages starting tomorrow, but all users will eventually be redirected to a confirmation page when they went into the Buzz.

Although Buzz settings page is not a new page, but by asking the user to change the privacy settings, Google has made the right step. Users will know that they can actually make the changes.

In addition, although the steps that Google do not improve the image of Buzz is already damaged in the eyes of some users, at least this will reduce the criticism that appears. After that, Google can focus on the larger problem, namely making Buzz a threat to Twitter and Facebook.

Page Rank

Understanding the
Basics of Page Rank

By Paul Marshall (c) 2010 Strategic Web Marketing Net

Featured Video: Web Page Copy Writing - Content Optimization

You've just built your website and you want to show up on the search
engines. You start reading about SEO and one of the first things that
jumps out at you is something called "Google PageRank." You know about
the big dog of the search engines, but what is PageRank and why is it
important in what you're trying to do?

Any good marketing coach can explain that easily. If your site is
placing high in free (organic) search results, you're getting free
advertising. Notice the word "free." That's always a good thing.
Building a strong PageRank (PR) by getting good quality links coming
in to your site takes time, but it isn't going to eat a hole in your
pocketbook.

You want to work on raising your site's PR to get "authority" with the
search engines. A site with "authority" gets better visibility in
search results. Really understanding the algorithm behind your site's
PR will likely have you reaching for a bottle of aspirin. In the
beginning, just concentrate on understanding the basics and how they
relate to your efforts to promote your site.

How Is PR Defined?

Google says PR is all about the "uniquely democratic nature of the
web" and "using its vast link structure as an indicator of an
individual page's value." Basically, a link from one page to another
is a vote for that page. However, not all votes in this democracy are
equal. Some votes come from higher-quality pages and are weighed more
heavily. (Other factors in determining PR include the relevance of
search phrases on a page and actual traffic to the page.)

How Is PageRank Expressed?

PR values are expressed on a scale of 0 to 10. Sites from 0 to 2 are
probably pretty new to the Web and have few incoming links. Sites that
have made it to PR3 to PR5 are fairly well established; PR6 and above
are really popular and have a lot of high-quality links. There are
very few sites that make it to the PR7 to PR10 range.

The ones that are ranked that high are usually owned by big
corporations or major media outlets like the Wall Street Journal
(PR8). Improving your site's PR by getting relevant, high-quality,
incoming links is one of the most affordable SEO methods at your
disposal. Rather than trying to get to a specific number, just
concentrate on improving your number.

Is My Site's Homepage The Only Page With PR?

No, each page in your site will be assigned a PR, something that is
emphasized in marketing coaching as a valuable tool. You can use
relevant interlinking to distribute PR throughout all your pages.

Huh? Well, just hang on to that thought for a minute. For right now,
just understand the concept that some pages in your site may earn a
higher PR than others, and that you can use that to your advantage.

PageRank Passes From One Page To Another

Here's how it works. A page with a high PR passes some of its value to
a low PR page over a link. You can use this to promote your site in a
couple of ways. When your site's pages are interlinked in a relevant
way, PR gets distributed more evenly throughout the site. Also, you
can "court" relevant sites that belong to other people through your
link-building campaign. This is really how your site starts to gain
"authority."

Start By Building Your Index Page's PR

Generally, marketing coaches will tell you to begin by working on your
home page's PR. This can be time-consuming, and not just because
you'll be building relationships with other site owners. You have to
do your time in what's popularly called the Google "sandbox." This
just means that new sites like yours probably won't get any PR at all
for the first few months you're on the Web.

How Do I Check My PR?

There are a number of free, online tools for checking PR including
PRChecker and SearchStatus. At PRChecker you type in a page's URL to
see its PR. SearchStatus is a FireFox extension that shows a site's PR
at the bottom of your browser. (It also shows your site's Alexa
rating, another method to measure online "importance.") You can also
install the Google Toolbar for Firefox or Internet Explorer and enable
the PageRank function.

Is Building My PR All I Need To Do?

A marketing coach will tell you that having a strong PR is only one
part of your SEO campaign. For instance, say you're looking around for
a site to link to yours. You find one with a high PR, but it's a site
that sells links. Move on. Their high PR number doesn't do you any
good because a link from that site to yours will have a lower quality
and will pass less authority to you.

Understanding the basics of PageRank is essential in putting together
a high-quality link-building campaign for your site, but don't get
fixated on the PR number and ignore other important facts. Just gain a
basic understanding of what PR is and how it functions and use that to
your advantage in building a reputation of authority for your site.

Irrelevant ads or public service ads (PSAs) ,copas!

Here tips from Google Adsense that copied from mail.Hope its usefull.
Last week, we took a closer look at implementing your ad code, and
today, we'll address some of the common issues related to ad targeting.

If you're seeing irrelevant ads or public service ads (PSAs) on your
pages after you've pasted the ad code into your HTML source code and
waited the recommended 48 hrs, here are a things to check:

- Have you placed the AdSense ad code in frames separate from the main
content of your website? If so, you may experience ad targeting issues.
In order for our crawlers to match the ads to the content of your
website, it is important to place the ad code in the same frame as the
main content of your webste. If you're familiar with HTML, and your
website is talking about several different topics you could also
consider implementing section targeting on your site to highlight
relevant content.
- Do you have mostly dynamic content on your site? Our crawlers
currently can't derive meaning from these types of files:
- audio and video files (.wma, .mpeg, .mov)
- mp3 files (.mp3)
- images (.jpeg, .bmp)
- Macromedia Flash movies
- Java Applets

To receive more relevant ads, we recommend including plenty of
text-based content on your site, including complete sentences and
paragraphs.
- Do your pages use session IDs? A session ID is a piece of data serves
as a unique identifier for a session. If your pages use session IDs,
you may not receive targeted ads on those pages. Since this session ID
- and therefore the URL - changes every time a different user views a
page, the URL will not be indexed and will need to be crawled from
scratch. Once the URL is crawled, however, the session will most likely
have expired. This means that pages seen by the users are rarely in the
index. You'll need to remove the session IDs in order to show more
targeted ads to your users.We hope these tips help you resolve any
targeting issues you experience with your ads. Next week, we'll take a
look at some other reasons why you may see irrelevant ads or PSAs on
your site, and how you can best resolve them.
