Choosing a Domain Name
Times wasting so lets get started…
****************************************
In the physical world, you can distinguish a business because of its structure, window displays, or signs. You can tell that a bank is a bank, or a clothing store is indeed a clothing store.
In the Internet, however, it is an entirely different story altogether. Your domain name is the only clue to your online business. You do not have visual clues: no location, no look, and no store design. Instead, users have to type in a word or a set of words to reach your site. Your prospective visitor has no way of knowing what your site is all about until he/she finds it and reads its contents. Who can ever tell that Amazon.com sells books? Or that Excite is a search engine?
Your domain name can spell your success on the Internet. A good domain name is the best asset you can ever have. It can make your business stand out in the crowd, or just float aimlessly in space.
The need to provide immediate clues to an online business led to the prevalence of generic domain names. Generic names instantly provide the user with an idea of what a business is all about, what to expect and look for in a site. For instance, Etoys.com is a toy store.
The temptation of the generic name has been so powerful; that some companies even paid ridiculously high prices to get the name they want. The domains Loans.com and Wines.com were both bought for $3 million each. Telephone.com was acquired for $1.75 million, while Bingo.com sold for $1.1 million.
However, generic names do not necessarily create the “buzz” that you’d like surrounding your website. Branding has always been about proper names: McDonald's did not name their store Hamburger. Hertz is not called Car Rental. FedEx is not Mail Carrier. Kodak is not Photographs. Microsoft is not Computer Software.
For better branding results, your domain name should be memorable and easy to remember. Remember the following tips when creating a domain name.
* The domain name should be short
* The domain name should be simple
* It should be suggestive of your business category
* It should be unique
* It should be easy to interpret and pronounce
* It should be personalized
* It should not be difficult to spell
* It should not be difficult to remember
Domain names can be registered through many different companies (known as "registrars") - a listing of these companies is available at ICANN: http://www.icann.org. You can register for 1 to 10 years - prices can vary anywhere from $10 to $20 per year. Most web hosting companies, as explained later, will handle the registration process for you, but make sure that you are properly listed as the owner of the domain when it is registered. If you have registered a domain name for a specific period, make sure you renew it in time. You can be surprised at the number of cases, where site owners have let a domain name slip by if they have not renewed in time.
****************************************
Using expired domains to skyrocket your traffic
****************************************
At some point while you’re building your website, you’re going to have to buy a domain name. This is the address that users type into their browsers to reach your site. That takes about five seconds, and depending on the name you want and whether anyone else owns it, it won’t cost you more than a few bucks.
But domain names are also a golden opportunity to make some easy money.
I’m not talking about Internet real estate, where you buy up good names and sell them on for a profit—if you haven’t got into that now, forget it. The bottom’s fallen out of the market and the best domains are long gone.
I’m talking about expiring domains.
Thousands of webmasters invest time, effort and money to promote their site and build up traffic. Many of them then lose interest and move on, leaving their site active. That means that although they still own the domain, they’re not actively promoting it. But they don’t need to. All the automatic marketing systems they’ve put in place are still bringing in traffic. The site runs itself.
Now, at some point the ownership of those domains is going to expire. If you snap up those domains once they come back onto the market, you’ve got a pre-built stream of customers. You can either rebuild the site, or redirect the traffic to your domain. You could set up an affiliate program get paid for users someone else paid for.
It’s that easy.
There are tons of options, and lots of easy ways to make lots of money with very little effort. Opportunities like these are everywhere.
Websites such as http://www.expiredtraffic.com or http://www.deleteddomains.com actually do all the legwork and let you reap all the rewards. Expired Traffic even has an affiliate program and http://www.snapnames.com allows you to back-order a specific domain name.
Do be careful when using other sites though. There are some swindlers out there that will sell you subscriptions, provide you with outdated lists, take your money and keep the good domains for themselves. It happens, and there’s little point in taking a risk when http://www.deleteddomains.com does such a great job.

The Best Web Site Hosting Company Will Give You Confidence in Your Business
The first thing you should do when determining what is the best web site hosting is to make a list of everything you need. It is easy to get excited during a search because you have found a great deal that you want to jump on. By having a list of your needs in front of you while you search, you will ensure that you don't miss anything during the decision making process.
Another thing to consider is what rights you have with the web hosting site. The best web site hosting companies will offer a satisfaction guarantee that allows you to move to another web host if you aren't happy. Be cautious of sites that require you to sign a contract or own your domain name in return for a low monthly price. If you aren't happy and you want to make a move, you want to ensure that you can take your domain name with you. In fact, purchasing your domain name before you choose a web hosting site will ensure that you avoid this underhanded procedure.
Choosing the best web site hosting company is very important for your online business. Web hosting companies are responsible for how fast your site runs, how much memory and space you have available to you and even your email management. When you chose a web site hosting company, you should take the same considerations that you would take if you were going to rent or purchase an actual storefront. If you take this approach before making your decision, you will be able to make the right choices at the right price.

20 Hack Registry untuk Tingkatkan Kinerja PC (bagian 3)
14. Percepat Back-Up
Fitur NTCBACKUP milik Windows XP meningkatkan kinerjanya dengan mempertahankan daftar file sistem yang ia tahu kalau Anda tidak akan mungkin ingin membuat back-upnya. Tambahkan file dan folder yang Anda inginkan sendiri dan dapatkan hasil yang lebih baik lagi.Lihat daftarnya pada "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FileNotToBackup".
15. Ubah Folder Instalasi Default
Kebanyakan instalasi default adalah folder Program Files, tapi jika Anda ingin menggantinya, masuk ke "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", ubah "ProgramFilesDir" menjadi folder pilihan Anda dan reboot16. Mengubah Nama Drive
Menambahkan sebuah pembaca kartu memori dan Explorer akan sering kali menghentikan folder komputer yang memiliki nama drive yang mirip. ("Removable Drive D: ", "Removable Drive E: ", dan seterusnya), membuatnya menjadi susah untuk membedakannya.Anda bisa mengatasinya dengan "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer". Buatlah tombol dengan huruf dari drive (sebagai contoh "G"), dan di dalamnya buatlah lagi tombol baru yang bernama "DefaultLabel". Klik-ganda pada tempat memasukkan nilainya, berilah nama "CompactFlash" (atau apapun sesuka Anda), dan klik "OK". Restart Explorer atau tekan [F5] dan lihat perubahannya. Drive G: akan terbaca sebagai "CompactFlash (G:)".
17. Wipe the Page File
Windows menyimpan memori halaman-halaman pada file paging selama Anda bekerja. Semuanya terdengar baik, sampai seseorang berhasil mengakses sistem Anda, menemukan file-file tersebut, dan menambahkan atau justru mengurangi sesuatu yang tidak Anda inginkan.Untuk mengatasinya, masuk ke "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\MemoryManagement", atur nilai "ClearPageFileAtShutdown" menjadi 1 dan reboot. Windows akan menghapus semua file halaman ketika ia dimatikan. Memang memperpanjang durasi dan proses, tapi meningkatkan keamanan.
18. Crash on Cue
Layar biru crash biasanya membawa kabar buruk, tetapi kadang Anda mungkin ingin memunculkannya untuk menguji laporan eror Windows misalnya. Ternyata trik Registry bisa membantu Anda bahkan untuk hal yang satu ini.Masuk ke "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042prt\Parameters", buat DWORD bernama "CrashOnCtrlScroll" dan atur nilainya menjadi 1. Reboot komputer Anda, dan untuk meng-crash cukup tahan [Ctrl] kanan dan tekan [Scroll Lock] dua kali. Setelah selesai, pastikan Anda segera menghapus perintah tersebut.
19. Save CPU Time
Sebuah PC standar biasanya memiliki beberapa program yang ingin menggunakan kapasitas prosesor pada saat yang bersamaan, dan Windows akan mengalokasi setiap periode dari CPU time sebuah "quantum" sebuah berpindah ke program yang berikutnya. Secara default, biasanya ini sangat pendek, sehingga PC akan menjadi responsif, tapi terkadang hal ini berarti Windows akan membuat waktu untuk berpindah di antara proses-proses tersebut.Solusinya? Anda bisa mencoba apa yang Windows Server lakukan. Atur sistem untuk menggunakan quantem yang lebih lama. Atur "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\PriorityControl\Win32PrioritySepartion" menjadi 16 (hex).
Quantum yang lebih lama berarti pergantian yang lebih sedikit di antara program jadi lebih sedikit waktu yang terbuang. Anda bisa memperhatikan kalau lag pada game atau pemutaran video akan menjadi lebih halus. Tapi, jika Anda menemukan masalah lainnya, cukup kembalikan nilai Win32PrioritySeparation menjadi nilai orisinilnya yaitu 26.
20. Non-aktifkan AutoRun
Fitur AutoRun milik Windows merupakan salah satu risiko keamanan yang berpotensi karena ia menjalankan kode secara otomatis ketika Anda menyambungkan alat yang bersifat removable ke dalam PC. Jika memang, hal tersebut bisa diatur secara manual saja, maka akan lebih aman untuk mematikan fitur tersebut.Pada beberapa sistem, hal tersebut hanya bisa dilakukan melalui Registry. Masuklah ke "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\IniFileMapping" dan buat tombol yang bernama "Autorun.inf".
Kemudian, klik-ganda pada nilai defaultnya dan masukkan "@SYS:DoesNotExist". Kemudian hapus "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2". Sekarang, Windows tidak lagi menjalankan kode apapun pada CD, DVD, atau portable drive secara otomatis. Anda harus menjalankannya secara manual.

20 Hack Registry untuk Tingkatkan Kinerja PC (bagian 2)
7. Enkripsi dengan Mudah
Beberapa versi Windows memungkinkan Anda untuk mengenkripsi file, walaupun prosesnya agak aneh. Anda harus mengklik-kanan pada file, pilih “properties“, tekan tombol “Advanced, cek “Encrypt contents to secure data“, dan tekan “OK” sebanyak 2x.
Untuk cara yang lebih sederhana, masuk ke “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Current\Version\Explorer\Advanced” buat DWORD yang bernama “EncryptionContextMenu” dan atur nilainya menjadi “1″. Sekarang Anda cukup hanya mengklik-kanan pada file dan pilih “Encrypt
“.
8. Akses Folder dengan Cepat
Akses folder dengan cepat dengan memunculkannya pada Start Menu, Ketik “REGEDIT” pada “Run”, masuk ke “HKCR\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers“, klik-kanan “ContextMenuHandlers” dan klik “New | Key”.
Ketik ” dan tekan [Enter]. Sekarang, tahan [Shift], klik-kanan pada sebuah folder, dan pilih “Pin to Start Menu“.
9. Percepat Waktu Peng-Kopian
Vista memberikan prioritas yang tinggi untuk soundcard Anda, jadi Anda butuh untuk mendapatkan audio yang bebas dari masalah tanpa peduli apa yang PC Anda sedang proses. Karena hal tersebut bisa memperlambat proses pengkopian pada jaringan.
Untuk memperbaikinya, masuk ke “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile“. Coba atur “NetworkThrottlingIndex” menjadi lebih 10 – 50 atau 60 sudah cukup efektif, kemudian reboot dan uji kecepatan jaringan Anda. Untuk informasi lebih, klik di sini.
10. Perbaiki Listing Drive
Jika Explorer tidak lagi menampilkan DVD drive Anda, masuk ke “HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\” dan hapus pengaturan “UpperFilters” atau “LowerFilters”. Tips ini biasanya bekerja, tapi kadang bisa gagal jika memang aplikasi bersangkutan sudah bermasalah dari awalnya. Jika program berhenti bekerja, coba lihat apakah terdapat update, kemudian reinstall
.
11. Akses Pengaturan Tampilan dengan Cepat
Klik-kanan saja pada desktop Windows Vista tidak cukup untuk membawa Anda langsung kepada menu pengaturan tampilan. Windows 7 sudah dipersiapkan untuk memperbaiki hal ini. Tapi, untuk sementara Anda bisa melakukannya dengan masuk ke “HKCR\Directory\Background\Shell“, klik-kanan “Shell”, pilih “New | Key” dan namakan “Display Settings”.
Klik-ganda “(Default)” oada bagian kanan panel dan masukkan “Display Settings” pada kotak Value Data. Sekarang, klik-kanan “Display Settings” pada bagian kiri panel, pilih “New | Key” kembali, dan namakan fungsi ini sebagai “command“.
Klik-ganda pada nilai Default fungsi-fungsi baru tersebut dan masukkan teks berikut ini: “rundll32 shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL DESK.CPL,@0,3“. Klik “OK” dan klik-kanan pada desktop untuk melihat opsi pengaturan tampilan yang baru.
12. Multiple Live Messenger Log-In
Biasanya, Windows Live Messenger (WLM) hanya memungkinkan Anda untuk masuk ke dalam satu akun saja pada satu waktu tertentu. Untuk membuatnya menjadi lebih dari satu, masuk ke “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsLive\Messenger“, buat nilai DWORD yang bernama “Multiple Instances” dan atur nilainya menjadi “1″. Untuk mengembalikan ke kondisi semula, cukup hapus nilai tersebut.
13. Bersihkan Menu-Menu
Anda telah meng-unsinstall sebuah aplikasi, tapi ia malah meninggalkan Anda sebuah cinderamata berupa ikon-ikon yang tidak berguna. Untuk memperbaiki ini, masuk ke “HKCR\*” dan “HKCR\Directory“. Perlebar panelnya, kemudian pilih “shellex\ContextMenuHandlers” dan lihat berbagai tombol di bawahnya yang berhubungan dengan perintah yang tidak Anda inginkan.
Pada PC, fungsi “HKCR\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\7-Zip” berhubungangan dengan menu konteks 7-Zip, sebagai contohnya, untuk menghapusnya, klik “Delete” pada bagian kiri panel. Tapi hati-hati, sebaiknya Anda hanya menghapus jika sudah 100% yakin pada menu yang tepat.
20 Hack Registry untuk Tingkatkan Kinerja PC (bagian 1)
Percepat Windows, Lebih Aman, dan Lebih Produktif…
Fungsi klik-kanan merupakan cara yang sangat baik untuk mempelajari beberapa fungsi Windows yang tersembunyi. Ingin lebih? Cobalah Anda mulai menjelajahi aplikasi Control Panel dan temukan beberapa teknik yang bermanfaat. Dan masih ada lagi aplikasi Command Line pada folder Windows’ System32. Tapi, tidak ada satupun yang bisa menandingi Registry.
Registry dilengkapi dengan berbagai pengaturan yang bermanfaat untuk meningkatkan kinerja, memperbaiki lubang keamanan, dan bahkan mengubah basis fundamental Windows untuk bekerja lebih baik. Walaupun terlihat sangat canggih, Anda tetap perlu untuk berhati-hati dalam menggunakannya karena bukan hanya fitur yang membantu tetapi juga banyak perangkap.
Jika tidak berhati-hati, Anda justru malah menambahkan masalah dari pada memecahkannya. Untuk itu, di bawah ini terdapat 20 hack yang bisa Anda coba untuk membuat PC Anda menjadi lebih baik. Selamat mencoba!!
1. Tingkatkan Keamanan
Seseorang yang tidak diinginkan bisa dengan mudah mengambil data Anda dengan USB apabila ia berhasil mengakses PC Anda secara fisik. Jika Anda menggunakan Windows XP2 atau versi sesudahnya, ada sebuah cara sederhana untuk mencegahnya.
Masuk ke “HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies“, buatlah sebuah nilai DWORD yang disebut “WriteProtect” dan atur pada nilai “1“. Anda akan bisa membaca drive USB, tetapi tidak bisa memindahkan data ke dalamnya lagi.
2. Kendalikan UAC
Kendali Akun Pengguna milik Vista sangat sering memunculkan peringatan-peringatan yang akhirnya dimatikan oleh para pengguna. Tapi, kadang justru membuat mereka kelewatan fitur-fitur yang bermanfaat seperti mode perlindungan untuk IE. Anda bisa mengendalikannya dengan cara menonaktifkan peringatan bagi administrator, jadi Anda tidak perlu terganggu, namun UAC tetap bekerja pada latar belakang dan Anda masih bisa mendapatkan fitur-fiturnya.
Untuk melakukan ini, masuk ke “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin“, dan atur nilainya menjadi “0″. Untuk mengembalikannya ke kondisi normal, atur nilainya menjadi “2″.
3. Ubah Pemilik
Instalasikan Windows pada PC dan Anda pasti akan diminta untuk memasukan nama, yang kemudian akan disimpan sebagai pemilik yang terdaftar (jalankan WinVer untuk melihat ini pada sistem Anda). Jika Anda membeli sebuah komputer bekas, mungkin Anda ingin mengganti nama pemiliknya dengan nama sendiri. Hmm..tak ada cara lain selain dengan Registry.
br>Masuk ke dalam “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion” dan akan melihat dua kalimat “RegisteredOwner” dan “RegisteredOrganization“. Klik ganda pada keduanya untuk mengganti.
4. Mengurutkan File dengan Benar
Mengurutkan nama file pada Explorer bisa menjadi suatu masalah. Pengaturan awal, ia akan menempatkan “File_v2.txt” sebelum “File_v15.txt”, dan itu bukanlah urutan ASCII, tetapi terlihat lebih masuk akal. Tetapi, bagaimana jika “v” merujuk kepada nomor versi, dan seharusnya “File_v15.txt” di urutan terdahulu? Pada saat ini, sistem awal Explorer tidak bisa bekerja sama sekali.
Untuk mengembalikan pengurutan berdasarkan ASCII yang biasa, masuk ke “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer“, buatlah nilai DWORD yang disebut “NoStrCmpLogical” dan atur nilainya menjadi “1“. Hapus kode tersebut jika ingin kembali ke kondisi awal Explorer yang standar.
5. Troubleshoot Startup
Jika Windows membutuhkan waktu yang terlalu lama untuk start up maupun shut down, kemungkinan ia sedang memiliki maslah. Untuk mengetahui apa yang sedang terjadi kembali masuk “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System“, buatlah sebuah nilai DWORD yang disebut “verbosestatus” dan atur nilainya menjadi “1“. Restart PC Anda dan Windows akan memberitahu Anda apa yang sedang terjadi.
6. Mengatur Tipe-Tipe Folder
Explorer milik Vista akan secara cerdas memilih tipe folder Anda berdasarkan isinya. Tetapi, hal ini berarti folder download Anda akan berubah menjadi folder musik jika Anda mengunduh beberapa MP3. Untuk memperbaiki ini, masuk ke dalam “HCU\Software\Classes\LocalSettings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shelf“, hapus subkey “Bags” dan buat yang baru pada lokasi yang sama.
Buatlah kunci bernama “AllFolders” di bawah Bags, dan kunci lain bernama “Shell” di bawahnya lagi. Kemudian klik padanya untuk membuka “HCU\Software\Classes\LocalSettings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\AllFolders\Shell“. Klik kanan pada bagian kanan panel, pilih “New | String Value” dan namakan ini “FolderType“. Kemudian, klik ganda pada FolderType dan atur nilainya menjadi “NotSpecified“. Anda masih bisa mengubah tipe folder, tapi Vista tidak akan mengubahnya secara otomatis. (Jika Anda membutuhkan bantuan, silakan klik di sini)

Types of CMS
CMSs are frequently used for storing, controlling, versioning, and publishing industry-specific documentation such as news articles, operators' manuals, technical manuals, sales guides, and marketing brochures.
There are three main categories of CMS, with their respective domain of use:
1. Enterprise CMS
Enterprise content management (ECM) is the strategies, methods and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents related to organizational processes. ECM tools and strategies allow the management of an
Organization’s unstructured information, wherever that information exists.
2 Web CMS
A web content management system (WCMS or Web CMS) is content management system (CMS) software, usually implemented as a Web application, for creating and managing HTML content. It is used to manage and control a large, dynamic collection of Web material (HTML documents and their associated images). A WCMS facilitates content creation, content control, editing, and many essential Web maintenance functions.
Usually the software provides authoring (and other) tools designed to allow users with little or no knowledge of programming languages or markup languages to create and manage content with relative ease of use.
Most systems use a database to store content, metadata, and/or artifacts that might be needed by the system. Content is frequently, but not universally, stored as XML, to facilitate reuse and enable flexible presentation options.
A presentation layer displays the content to regular Web-site visitors based on a set of templates. The templates are sometimes XSL files.
Administration is typically done through browser-based interfaces, but some systems require the use of a fat client.
Unlike Web-site builders like Microsoft FrontPage or Adobe Dreamweaver, a WCMS allows non-technical users to make changes to an existing website with little or no training. A WCMS typically requires an experienced coder to set up and add features, but is primarily a Web-site maintenance tool for non-technical administrators.
2. Component CMS
Component Content Management Systems (CCMS) manage content at a granular level (component) rather than at the document level. Each component represents a single topic, concept or asset (e.g., image, table, product description). Components are assembled into multiple content assemblies (content types) and can be viewed as components or as traditional documents. Each component has its own lifecycle (owner, version, approval, use) and can be tracked individually or as part of an assembly. CCM is typically used for multi-channel customer-facing content (marketing, usage, learning, support). CCM can be a separate system or be a functionality of another content management system type (e.g., ECM or Web Content Management).
Benefits of managing contents at components level:
1. Greater consistency and accuracy.
2. Reduced maintenance costs.
3. Reduced delivery costs.
4. Reduced translation costs.

Evaluating The Types Of Blog Platforms
Deciding what your priorities are in terms of ease of use versus how easy it is to customize. Forms of blogging such as moveable types, are a little difficult to use than automated platforms, such as wordpress. If you are a blogging and computer novice, it may be a good idea to trade using custom backgrounds and fonts for a more user-friendly program. A seasoned internet developer who is experienced with html and javascript will probably be unsatisfied with the lack of design flexibility offered by a user-friendly program.
Every blogger has particular needs so there is no 'one' blogging program for everyone. The upward trend in blogging is about individual expression - it is obvious then why there are a wide range of platforms available. They are all designed to satisfy the needs of many sorts of people with different project requirements. Because of this variety you will most likely discover a program suited to your technical knowledge.
Yet, bloggers typically need different things from a blog which will make your decision about choosing a program difficult. Maintain your priorities and don't forget to take into account the point of view of the reviewer when evaluating critiques of assorted platforms. Beginners bloggers have tendencies to write in limited platforms. There is invariably room for improvement, meaning there is no such thing as the "perfect" program, so it's better to just discover one that suites your needs.

Baterai Ada ‘Virusnya’?
Peneliti dari Massachusetts Institute of Technology telah melatih sebuah virus kecil untuk melakukan perintah para peneliti, Kamis (02/4) kemarin, yang diyakini bahwa virus tersebut dapat membuat baterai lithium lebih powerful dan efisien. Virus tersebut diubah menjadi dua gen oleh peneliti, yang diberi nama virus MI3, dan apat melakukan dua hal yakni membangun kerangka yang dibuat dari besi fosfat, dan kemudian memasukkan ke sebuah karbon nanotube untuk membuat elektroda kecil dan powerful.
Menurut Angela Belcher, pemimpin peneliti dari institute yang sama, elektroda memang dapat membuat memory sebuah device lebih powerful, seperti yang ada dalam MP3 player atau handphone, dan lebih ramah lingkungan daripada teknologi baterai biasanya. “User dapat menggunakan iPod sekitar 3 jam lebih lama dibandingkan baterai iPod biasa. Kami juga membuat skala besar untuk mobil. Semua itu karena dalam baterai terdapat virus yang mempu menambah power performance baterai, lebih baik daripada baterai biasa.” kata Belcher.
Teknologi baterai tersebut termasuk ramah lingkungan karena memiliki virus di dalamnya. “Kami telah membangun organisme, mengatur temperature, dan air dimana organisme dapat hidup. Ini adalah teknologi yang bersih.“ tambah Belcher. Material besi forfat bukanlah konduktor yang baik, namun dapat membuat material baterai lebih berguna ketika dipolakan dalam skala nano, yakni molekul skala mikroskopik.

Prepare Android HP Netbook Price 2 Millions
"We want to access the ability to Android in the computer and communications industries. However, we do not know if HP plans to sell Android devices to the system, or not. "Chahil said.
Android itself is a Linux operating system designed only for mobile phones, including T-Mobile G1, HTC, Samsung and Motorola. However, it is predicted that the open source Android system can be applied in other devices, including the mini laptop or netbook, known as the price of about $ 200 or approximately 2 million rupiah, in 2009 this year.
HP is currently working on Android for cheap netbook berbiaya, as an alternative to Microsoft Windows. Meanwhile, Google rejected the comments, whether HP or other netbook manufacturer plans to use Android software, but Google does not contradict Android software if only for a limited mobile phone.
"Android smartphone platform in the first mobile phone designed for style and netbook. We also see the contribution of innovation and what can be produced from Android, but we have not yet mengumumkannya at this time. "Said Google spokesman. (H_n)

Proxy Changers: a Guide
Today, proxy changer applications or plug in software is very important for users. The reason is that although there are several servers out there, a lot of them can slow down so you need to have a program that can change the settings on your system as quickly as possible.
There are a lot to choose from, each boasting of several features. The ones that you should download or buy will be dependent on what you or your network will require.
For example, even though you may install the program for the purpose of making changes to the server, you also benefit if it can be utilized with other applications and programs. A proxy changer application that can function with other Internet software, from chat, email, browsers and instant messaging means your anonymity will be ensured when you try those programs too. If the changer works for those, then there is no need to download another one.
Another vital function that you will want to look for will be how it manages the different proxies out there. At the very least the program should be capable of conducting s search for these servers. Other features you could find useful will be a tester to evaluate the server speed, the variant (high anonymous, public, SOCKS etc), and location. The latter can be very helpful because picking a server proximate to your location can speed up the connection.
A proxy changer must also have the ability to update a list, and of course, alter the server anytime you wish. Some other features include creating chains, remove any servers that are not quick enough, and of course, compatibility with several browsers. You should also get one that supports different types of connections, from dial up modems to broadband
How to Watch TV Online Free
If you’re like me, you watch a bit of television, but what if you miss a show and forgot to record it? What if you are travelling? What if you just forgot about a show you wanted to see?
Fortunately, it is possible to watch television online free.
Internet television can be an excellent option – because it can be accessed from any computer with an internet connection.
There are many many websites that supposedly offer internet TV, but I’ve found only a few actually deliver on that promise legally.
You may have seen some of these sites. They say you can pay a one time fee and then get a load of internet television channels – that would normally be free. These sites often simply link to other real, legitimate sites.
What's more, most of such sites aren't even legal. In order to display television shows and movies a site must have the written permission of the show's copyright owners. If permission is not obtained, showing the content (or even watching it) is a federal crime – punishable by a prison sentence and a hefty fine. So it can be risky if you don't know that what you are watching is legal.
However, the resources I am about to show you are 100% legal and are even promoted by television networks for people who missed a show on TV. They have the full permission of the copyright owners to display television and movie content online – so there is no risk involved.

Samsung NC10 10" Netbook - The Ultimate Ultra-Portable Laptop
The Samsung NC10 has no frills minimalist design and it comes in white or blue. It has a matte exterior and is adorned with a reflective Samsung logo. It simple design and rounded corners gives it a more professional design compared to other Asus and MSI netbooks. Weighing at just 2.8 pounds, it is also lighter than most of the other netbooks in the market (which usually weigh more than 3 pounds).
The keyboard on the Samsung NC10 is 93% of the size of regular keyboards. The positioning of the keys are very comfortable, with a full size shift key below the enter button on the right. The great layouts of the keys take little time to get used to (unlike some other netbook models).
Most of the new netbooks in the market today have a glossy display screen, which greatly reduces its visibility under bright conditions. The screen on the Samsung model is matte, maintaining good visibility even under bright sunlight. Although it has the standard 1024 x 600 pixel screen, the images are crisp and vibrant.
The powerful Samsung NC10 resembles more of a laptop than a netbook in terms of functionality. Due to the extra features found in this model, it cost a little more than the average netbook. From the raving reviews received by this netbook, I would say the price is well worth it!
7 Key Tips To Choosing The Right Data Protection Software For Your Needs
If you are an IT professional responsible for your firm's data protection - or just the most computer-savvy person in your small or mid-sized firm - you may already have a favorite procedure. You have probably found a software package (or two, or three) that you have used with some degree of success and consistency. But if you are doing this for the first time, or rethinking your company's approach because of less than stellar results, these six key tips to choosing the right data protection software for your needs is right on time.
1. Decide "where" before "what": Do you want web-based backup and recovery, local backup and recovery, or some combination of the two? This decision should be made first, since the kinds of software and procedures differ for each approach. You will need to crunch a few numbers so you know how much space you will need, wherever the backup server is located, and you will have to develop schedules and protocols (and enforce them) to make it all work.
2. Consider a subscription: There are a number of subscription-based online services that charge monthly fees ranging from $4.95 to a few hundred dollars per month, depending on your unique needs and storage requirements. The software that is provided by these services is always available for Windows environments, of course, but these days Linux and Macintosh clients are usually supported, as well. Such features as 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption and near-continuous data protection are common, but be aware that some products are intended more for the home than the business environment. Read the fine print.
3. Try "set and forget": For many businesses needing a modest amount of local backup and recovery, software vendors have created various programs that you can "set and forget." These products put a premium on ease of use, and make it simple to get status reports, general system information or specific file data. With these "smart syncing" applications, you can set your system up in one short session of perhaps five or six mouse-clicks. The programs are not as robust and multitalented as some "enterprise" solutions, but they don't cost $11,000 either.
4. To clone or not to clone: Another excellent and often overlooked option for backing up laptops and desktops locally is to simply clone their hard drives. Instead of deciding what files or applications to backup, cloning software will make a sector-by-sector "twin" of the target drive that can be saved not to another internal or external hard drive, but save as another drive. You can also create ISO or proprietary disc images of the drives and burn them to DVD (or across a lot of CDs, but why?) or park it on a small office server. This is a fast and low-cost solution, meaning that it does not have tremendous flexibility. You would have to create a completely new clone every day, although some programs will let you pick up from where you left off and add to a previous clone (incremental saves).
5. Don't just backup, roll back: You also need to protect against data corruption and deletion, and most computer users with more than two months' experience already know how easy it is to "corrupt" a single file or an entire database, or make a once- functioning system totally unusable. There are hundreds (thousands?) of "system rollback" utilities that have arrived on the scene to help out. In fact, both the new Windows Vista and Macintosh OS X Leopard have these functions built in. The rollback applications take periodic "snapshots" of the entire system - from the Operating System (OS) and its many parts, to applications, files, documents, etc. - and date them. If a problem occurs, you can "roll the system back" to a date when things were running smoothly.
6. Do you need tracking and analysis?: Many companies, of all sizes, will need to track all computer operations for a variety of reasons, from financial to security-related. The performance and condition of every component in the device chain is of critical importance. In the largest, most complex backup environments, though, exceptionally powerful tools with "analytic engines" are deployed to keep management apprised of up to the nanosecond system status. These tools allow managers to solve performance bottlenecks, determine ongoing and growing storage needs, analyze competing procedures and oversee the entire operation with scheduling, troubleshooting, reporting and repair utilities.
7. Think broad and deep: You need to cover more bases than most single applications can handle, so think in terms of a data protection solution rather than a data protection software package. Although your firm may be large enough to develop its own proprietary software for onsite use, that is quite an investment, and it may be that you are reinventing more than one wheel. Try to assemble a solution - with software, hardware and human beings all being components - that addresses your firm's unique needs and will be practical, possible and fairly painless to implement. There will be bumps in the road, of course, but your good planning ahead of time should result in a solution that works - if you work it!

Mengembalikan Partisi XP/ Vista di Windows 7
Masuk ke sistem operasi Windows 7, klik kanan pada ikon Computer > Manage > Storage > Disk Management. Setelah jendela Disk Management terbuka Anda akan melihat salah satu partisi yang tidak memiliki huruf drive. Klik kanan pada partisi tersebut dan klik Change Driver Letter and Paths.
Kemudian klik Add dan pilih Assign the following driver letter. Dari sini Anda bisa memilih huruf yang diinginkan atau membiarkan sesuai huruf yang sudah dimunculkan sebelumnya dan klik Ok kemudian tutup jendela.
Coba Anda akses Computer dan sekarang partisi XP atau Vista Anda pastinya sudah bisa terlihat, jadi Anda bisa mengakses berbagai file yang ada di sana melalui Windows 7.(JkWebTalks)
Microsoft Pamerkan Fitur Sentuh Windows 7
Sebagai contoh, taskbar Windows baru yang menjadi salah satu sorotan utama di Windows 7 memiliki beberapa tombol berukuran besar yang mudah dapat diklik maupun drag dengan jari untuk melihat cuplikan dari program yang terbuka, sangat cocok digunakan untuk alat elektronik berbasis layar sentuh. Fitur Aero Snap juga mudah diaktifkan hanya dengan melakukan drag and drop jendela aplikasi dengan jari, dan tombol Aero Peek juga berukuran cukup besar sehingga mudah ditekan dengan jari.
Dalam sebuah posting blog, tim Windows 7 menuturkan berbagai fitur sentuh baru yang dapat digunakan di sistem operasi terbaru Microsoft ini. Sebagai contoh Anda dapat melakukan double click dengan jari seperti halnya double click menggunakan tetikus, Anda juga dapat menekan salah satu ikon aplikasi dan menggunakan jari kedua untuk mensimulasikan klik kanan maupun mengakses efek zoom dengan merapatkan atau menjauhkan jarak antara kedua jari Anda di layar. (Download Squad)
Apabila Anda merupakan penggemar Apple, tentunya konsep interaksi seperti ini bukan sesuatu yang baru (iPhone dan multi-touch trackpad MacBook), tetapi apabila Anda merupakan pengguna Windows, tambahan fitur ini tampaknya akan sangat memuaskan, terutama pada Windows Mobile ataupun tablet berbasis Windows.

Internet Explorer 8, Browser Tercepat Paling Aman dari Microsoft
Peluncuran Internet Explorer 8 ini sebenarnya telah lama dinantikan publik, mengingat hingga saat ini Internet Explorer (IE) masih mendominasi market browser Internet di seluruh dunia. Dengan kata lain, browser terbaru besutan Microsoft ini tetap akan mempunyai captive market-nya sendiri yang menjamin kecepatannya dalam penerimaan konsumen. Microsoft sendiri mengklaim browser terbarunya, Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) ini sebagai browser tercepat paling aman yang pernah mereka buat.
Microsoft sendiri tidak main-main dengan pernyataan tersebut, mengingat selain menambahkan aspek kecepatan, Microsoft juga menambahkan feature ‘Domain Highlighting’ yang secara otomatis akan menyorot nama top level domain halaman situs yang kita akses. Selain itu SmartScreen Filter juga akan mendukung keamanan user dengan cara memberikan peringatan otomatis pada saat user mengakses halaman-halaman situs yang dianggap berbahaya oleh Microsoft.
Dari versi Release Candidate yang ditawarkan Microsoft dalam Internet Explorer ini, setidaknya kita bisa mengetahui ada 3 feature unggulan yang ditawarkan dalam browser ini, yaitu Webslices, Accelerator, dan Visual Search.
Webslice sebagai salah satu feature unggulan dalam Internet Explorer akan memberikan kemudahan bagi user dalam hal akses informasi website. Tidak dapat dipungkiri, dalam aktivitas browsing yang kita lakukan setiap hari, sebenarnya kita hanya membutuhkan beberapa bagian informasi saja dari setiap situs yang kita kunjungi. Kecenderungan inilah yang difasilitasi oleh Microsoft dalam Internet Explorer 8 ini. Kita dapat mengumpulkan dan mengikuti bagian dari informasi-informasi penting yang ingin kita ikuti perkembangannya dari berbagai situs yang sering kita kunjungi, hanya dengan cara click tombol ‘Webslices’. Setelah menerapkan ‘Webslices’ pada bagian tersebut, maka browser secara otomatis akan menampilkannya pada ‘Favourite Bar’. Namun feature ini mungkin belum sepenuhnya dapat kita terapkan untuk website-website dalam negeri, karena untuk dapat memakai feature ini, dari sisi teknologi web development situs yang bersangkutan harus sudah dipastikan kompatibilitasnya terlebih dahulu.
Selain webslice, dua feature penting lainnya adalah Accelerator dan Visual Search. Accelerator berguna untuk mendapatkan informasi cepat dari setiap kata yang kita pilih (highlited) pada saat kita membaca sebuah artikel tanpa kita harus berpindah halaman browser. Tentunya proses ini akan mempercepat proses pembacaan kita terhadap sebuah artikel atau berita, tanpa kita harus mencari kembali secara manual kata-kata yang ingin kita pahami artinya dalam sebuah pemberitaan, dengan cara meng-copy dan mencari artinya melalui halaman lain dari browser. Dengan Accelerator ini, user akan dapat dengan mudah menemukan berbagai opsi definisi mengenai sebuah kata. Ada beberapa opsi keterangan yang dapat kita pilih dalam Accelerator ini, antara lain ‘Blog with Windows Live’, ‘Email with Windows Live’, ‘Map with Live Search’, ‘Search with Google’ hingga ‘Translate with Live Search’.
Sedangkan Visual Search merupakan feature pencarian bergambar, yang diharapkan akan lebih memperkaya hasil pencarian yang diberikan sehingga dapat lebih memuaskan user dari sisi content maupun visual. Konsep Visual Search ini sendiri sebenarnya berangkat dari kenyataan bahwa aspek visual manusia memegang peranan penting dalam pemahamannya akan suatu hal. Dengan menampilkan tidak hanya content, namun juga gambar-gambar yang mendeskripsikannya, diharapkan akan semakin meningkatkan kepuasan user dalam mendapatkan hasil dari pencarian yang dilakukannya.(dna)

Many Bug creating Serious Error in Google Docs
In googledocs.blogspot.com, product manager of Google Docs, Jennifer Mazzon said that pihakny was to protect the user mejadi the legitimate owner of the document or collaborators with the sharing of legitimate rights, before sharing the document with the user. Mazzon claiming that the bug only override 'some user' because of the bug is actually only a small number of documents menginfeksi.
Google said that the error occurred only in the system Google Docs, Google Apps precisely, and does not spread to the spreadsheet system, although some of the presentation is also affected application error. Google will then try to fix the bugs by using the 'automated process to eliminate the collaborators and viewers of the document', which has caused this ekploitasi security. Or in other words, all the rights of document users sharing infected by the bug will be blocked, and then inform the user that they are infected need to do re-share their documents back.
"We apologize for any problem. We understand very user interest, especially that this bug has been infected. For that, we will handle this matter seriously. "Mazzon said. (H_n)
