Facts about cloud ...Cloud firing like AK47

Is Cloud Computing Changing the Balance of Power?

Sophisticated computing isn’t just for large enterprises anymore. “All of a sudden computing is for rent,” said Weitz. “Before you had to buy and run it by yourself. Now you can just pay for what you use.” Cloud computing is part of a “mega-trend” in which business, political, and social power is moving from large institutions to smaller, more agile organizations. This means that garage start-ups can try out their technologies on a shorter innovation cycle without heavy infrastructure investments. “The cloud is like the AK-47 – a cheap, effective weapon that is widely available to any small group, which allows them to compete against the world’s most sophisticated organizations on an equal or better footing. Computing is now available at low costs at a mass scale,” he said. “With its ability to improve agility and reduce the need for capital expenditures, it’s becoming a competitive differentiator against the ‘old guard’ tech companies.”
What are the challenges the ‘Old Guard’ Face in Cloud Adoption?

New companies frequently start with a cloud computing model and never look back. For established tech companies, services providers, and enterprises, however, switching to cloud computing is a big change, and challenge. “ It becomes a business risk calculation for older companies,” said Weitz. “They have to think through what level of risk they are willing to take to change their business model.” Transitioning established services to achieving new efficiencies and flexibility with cloud is complex in itself. Key risk areas also include new issues with data privacy, security, and resiliency, with different risk exposures and tolerances in each industry. There is also trust issues when it comes to the public versus private cloud. “You must trust that the vendor‘s security is better than your own.”
Where Does the Cloud Offer the Biggest Potential for Disruption?

“The computing pie is being chopped up by cloud vendors,” Weitz said. He mentioned that servers, storage and networking are all at an inflexion point, especially as more and more data transfer happens over mobile devices. “We are gravitating away from corporate data centers to smart phones.”

Is OpenStack All That?

“OpenStack has potential but it’s still early, like Linux was five to ten years ago.” Weitz explained that it might be some time before it achieves “enterprise class” and has the stability that many large enterprises require. “If you are a large financial firm you cannot take the risk of a server failing for a day,” he said. However Weitz does think that OpenStack can create major opportunities especially in how it affects hardware. “Companies won’t have to be locked into a specific hardware player and thus can pick from multiple (sometimes cheaper) vendors,” he said. “The market has been over served. Not everyone needs the fancy gold plated options, but rather one that is good enough.” Thus CIOs are being incented to move away from high-cost best of breed component products, and toward cloud services whose “parts” are unknown and undifferentiated.

How to add a meta-tag to a individual blog-post

Description meta-tags are a special case, and I'll be publishing a separate article about them very shortly.

But for all other types of meta-tag, Blogger's Post-editor doesn't allow any other sort of meta-tags: even if you go into HTML mode and type them in, they will be automatically removed when you publish the post or look at in again in Compose mode.

So to add other tags to specific posts, you need to

1) Edit your template - don't expand the widgets.

2) Find this text:
<head>
You may need to look for <head SOME-OTHER-STUFF>, depending on what template you are using. Usually I search for "<head", ie without the closing bracket, and make sure that I do what is needed after the closing bracket >.

3) Add this line of code after the <head> tag:
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == "PUT-THE-POST-URL-HERE"'>
< THE META-TAG YOU WANT TO ADD>
</b:if>
replacing:
<THE META-TAG YOU WANT TO ADD> - with the actual meta-tag details, and
PUT-THE-POST-URL-HERE with the full address of the post.

This means you cannot add the meta-tags until you know the post's URL, ie after the post has been published for the first time. This is a little tedious, but not impossible. You just need to publish the post, get the URL, and then edit your template and add the meta-tag info for the post

Alternatively, you could just apply the tag to your so-called home page by adding the tag with a "home page only" conditional, eg
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:blog.homepageUrl'>
THE CODE FOR YOUR META-TAG(s) GOES IN HERE
</b:if>

Adding meta-tags to your whole blog:

This is most appropriate for tags that genuinely should apply to every single page on your blog: what these are depends on how your blog is organised, and what you expect the meta-tags to be used for.

Again, description meta-tags are a special case, and will be covered separately.

You can add non-description meta-tags by editing your template and putting the meta-tag statement somewhere in the header, ie
after <head SOME-OTHER STUFF>
before </head>

Make sure that you put the meta-tag statement in-between the other HTML statements in the header, ie after a closing > and before an opening one>

What your readers see

People who visit your blog won't see anything different provided you've installed the meta-tags properly.

But search-engine-spiders and other computer-based visitors will read the contents of the meta-tags. This may cause them to display things about your blog differently at their end (eg a description within Facebook), but won't make any difference when a human visitor is looking at your blog.

Is it worth it?

Only you can decide if it's worth the trouble of adding meta-tags to your blog.

If you're doing it so your site ownership can be verified, then it's almost certainly worthwhile.

And obviously Blogger thinks that description tags are worthwile - because they've given us a way to edit them inside the post-editor.

But if you're doing it for SEO, so that your blog ranks higher in search results, or looks more attractive / clickable on the result-pages, then the only answer is "it depends". There area a lot of unknowns about SEO: there are experts who are adamanent that certain meta-tags are essential for your blog to do well in search. They may be right. They may have been correct - for a few weeks or even months or years, but some people believe they are not correct now. Others say that meta-tags still matter, because tags, especially description tags, influence what body-text is shown in seach-engine-result-pages (SERPS). But really, only the search-engine makes know the real answer. And even then, their answer may change tomorrow if a new search-algorithm change is applied.

How to add meta tags to a blog

This article describes meta-tags: why and how to add them to your blog.

It applies to any type of meta-tag except the description-tag: Blogger introduced special editing tools for them in late March 2012, so they are covered separately.

What is a meta-tag, and why would you use one

A meta-tag is a piece of HTML code that is found inside a webpage, and contains information about the page.

When HTML was invented, meta-tags were used for data about who made each page, what it's about, and what keywords apply to it. Originally search-engines used these tags to build indexes (ie databases) about where to find things. However this doesn't often happen now: spammers used meta-tags to lie to the search-engines, so the search-engines got smarter and ignored meta-tags.

Today, however, meta-tags are still used to give "information" about websites to electronic visitors, for many purposes.

For example, a search-engine or directory may ask you to prove that you do own a website which you claim to own, by adding a meta-tags of their choice to it. PInterest lets website-owners opt out of having their sites shared / pinned by adding a specific meta-tag that effectively says "Nope, you're not allowed to pin this one". And Facebook uses (still? maybe it's used now) open-graph meta tags to let us set the picture and text that are shown when a page is shared.

There are a wide variety of meta-tags still in use on the web today. And they are a clever idea: no one needs to set the "rules" about what meta-tags are allowed - they just need to be available to whatever electronic-visitors see them on a website.

What does a meta-tag look like:

These are some example meta-tags:
<meta name="description" content="Adding pictures to your blog without using gadgets" />
<meta name="keywords" content="HTML,images, filestore, picture" />
<meta name="author" content="Mary Smith" />

Each one has two parts (in technical terms, this arrangement is called a "name/value pair"):
some text that says what the meta-tag is about (eg description, author)
some text that contains the value for this case (eg "Mary Smith")

This idea has been used in other ways too - instead of "name" some meta-tags use other values, like
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />

If you look at your blog's template, you may find that there are already meta-tags there, which Blogger added to every post and page. For example in Blogger-HAT's template I can see:
<meta content='some-verification-codes-from-Google' name='google-site-verification'/>
<meta content='IE=EmulateIE7' http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible'/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.isMobile'>
<meta content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0' name='viewport'/>
<b:else/>
The first is a verification tag from webmaster central that I added a long time ago, while the others are meta-tags that Blogger developers decided would be good to have.

What does each meta-tag apply to

Before adding a meta-tag you need to decide whether it applies to every screen (ref: Blogger, blogs and bloggers, Posts, Pages and screens) that your blog shows, or whether it only applies to an individual post.

As a general rule, think about what the content of the meta-tag means: unless you can see how it specifically relates to material in a post, then you are probably best adding it to your whole blog.

How to improve audience to blog

The blogosphere is a big and busy world with over 100 million blogs and growing. How do you attract visitors to your blog? Follow these simple tips to drive traffic to your blog.
1. Write Well and Write Often
Frequently updating your blog with useful content is the first step to building your blog's audience. The content you write is what will keep readers coming back for more. Make sure you have something meaningful to say to them and say it often to maintain their interest and keep them loyal.

Furthermore, post frequently to increase the number of chances you have for your blog's content to be noticed by search engines such as Google or Technorati.

2. Use and Update Your Blogroll
By adding links to sites you like in your blogroll, the owners of those blogs will find your blog and will be likely to add a reciprocal link in their blogrolls. It's an easy way to get the link to your blog in front of many readers on other blogs. The hope is that some of those readers will click on the link to your blog on the other blogs' blogrolls and find your content interesting and enjoyable turning them into loyal readers.

3. Submit Your Blog to Search Engines
Get on the radar screen for the popular search engines such as Google and Yahoo! by submitting your blog's URL to them. Most search engines provide a 'Submit' link (or something similar) to notify the search engine of your new blog, so those search engines will crawl it and include your pages in their results.

It's important to understand that simply submitting your blog to search engines doesn't mean your pages will appear at the top of a Google search results screen, but at least your blog will be included and will have the chance of being picked up by a search engine.

4. Syndicate Your Blog's Content with an RSS Feed
Setting up an RSS feed button on your blog makes it easy for your loyal readers to not just read your blog but also know when you publish new content.

5. Harness the Power of Comments
Commenting is a simple and essential tool to increase your blog's traffic. First, respond to comments left on your blog to show your readers that you value their opinions and draw them into a two-way conversation. This will increase reader loyalty.

Second, leave comments on other blogs to drive new traffic. Make sure you leave your blog's URL in your comment, so you create a link back to your own blog. Many people will read the comments left on a blog post. If they read a particularly interesting comment, they are highly likely to click on the link to visit the commentor's website. It's important to make sure you leave meaningful comments that are likely to invite people to click on your link to read more.

6. Use Links and Trackbacks
Links are one of the most powerful parts of your blog. Not only are links noticed by search engines, but they also act as a tap on the shoulder to other bloggers who can easily identify who is linking to their sites. Linking helps to get you noticed by other bloggers who are likely to investigate the sites that are linking to them. This may lead them to become new readers of your blog or to add links to your blog from theirs.

You can take links to other blogs a step further by leaving a trackback on the other blog to let them know you've linked to them. Blogs that allow trackbacks will include a link back to your blog in the comments section of the post that you originally linked to. People do click on trackback links!

7. Tag Your Posts
It takes a few extra seconds to add tags to each of your blog posts, but it's worth the time in terms of the additional traffic tags can drive to your blog. Tags (like links) are easily noticed by search engines. They're also key to helping readers find your blog when they perform searches on popular blog search engines such as Technorati.

8. Submit Your Posts to Social Bookmarking Sites
Taking the time to submit your best posts to social bookmarking sites such as Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit and more can be a simple way to quickly boost traffic to your blog.

9. Remember Search Engine Optimization
When you write your blog posts and pages, remember to optimize your pages for search engines to find them. Include relevant keywords and links but don't overload your posts with too many relevant keywords or completely irrelevant keywords. Doing so can be considered spamming and could have negative results such as your blog being removed from Google's search entirely.

10. Don't Forget Images
Images don't just make your blog look pretty, they also help people find you in search engine listings. People often use the image search options offered by Google, Yahoo! and other search engines, and naming your images with search engine optimization in mind can easily boost your traffic.

11. Consider Guest Blogging
Guest blogging can be done when you write a guest post on another blogger's blog or when another blogger writes a guest post on your blog. Both methods are likely to increase traffic as your blog will be exposed to the other blogger's audience. Many of the other blogger's readers will visit your blog to see what you have to say.

12. Join Forums, Web Rings or Online Groups
Find online forums, web rings, groups or social networking sites such as Facebook and LinkedIn where you can share ideas and ask questions of like-minded individuals. Add a link to your blog in your signature line or profile, so each time you post on a forum or participate in another online network, you're indirectly promoting your blog. Chances are many people will click on that link to learn more about you.

13. Promote Outside Your Blog
Promoting your blog shouldn't stop when you step outside the blogosphere. Add your blog's URL to your email signature and business cards. Talk about it in offline conversations. It's important to get your name and your blog's URL noticed offline, too.

14. Nominate Yourself and Other Blogs for Blog Awards
There are a number of blog awards given out throughout the year. Nominating yourself and other blogs and bloggers can draw attention to your blog and drive traffic to it.

15. Don't Be Shy
The most important part of the blogosphere is its community and much of your success as a blogger will be tied to your willingness to network with that community. Don't be afraid to ask questions, join conversations or just say hi and introduce yourself. Don't sit back and hope the online world will find you. Speak out and get yourself noticed. Let the blogosphere know you've arrived and have something to say!

New technology will allow you to charge gadgets with your shoes

praposed by :Anthony Mutua

Kenyan developer Anthony Mutua has produced a micro-chip that can produce electrical charge to your phone just by simply walking.

Call it an extremely modernized way to walk and talk at the same time, without losing significant phone battery charge.

A young developer from Kenya is introducing a new technology that will make your shoes capable of charging your mobile devices simultaneously as you walk.

Anthony Mutua, 24, concocted an ultra-thin chip of crystals that can generate power when pressure is applied to the chip. This means that when inserted into the soles of shoes, each step helps to harvest electricity from the chip in your shoes and into your mobile device through an extension cord. You don’t have to keep walking to generate energy, however. The shoes can also continue to charge phones after walks by storing electric energy even after the shoes remain static.

At the moment, Mutua is aiming to mass produce the technology with the hopes that the added convenience can help people charge several devices at the same time, all while users go about their every day activities. The chips are also transferrable, and can be switched out to a different pair of shoes should the first pair wears out. Best of all, the technology will be relatively low in cost, at just 3,800 Kenyan shillings (or approximately $45 USD) per shoe and comes with a two year warranty (that doesn’t cover stolen or lost item, unfortunately).

Mutua’s project has officially been patented and received a funding of 500,000 KSH, or $6024 USD, by Kenya’s National Council of Science and Technology to help commercialize the product. “This and the possibility of a bigger market could eventually bring down the purchase price,” Mutua told Kenya’s Daily Nation newspaper.

There are no set dates for when the chips will enter mass production, or if the chips will withstand all-weather conditions and extreme pressure. If the latter is possible, this will be great news for joggers who also use their phones as music players during the run. Despite our questions, the technology is a seamless and efficient way to harvest energy and encourage people to get some exercise in while charging their gadgets without even realizing it, so we hope the chips eventually arrive to the United States in the near future.

mutual approval to detect fake id's in facebook

praposed by :Mohan (my self)
Facebook
is a social networking service launched in February 2004, owned and operated by Facebook, Inc. As of September 2012, Facebook has over one billion active users, more than half of them using Facebook on a mobile device. Users must register before using the site, after which they may create a personal profile, add other users as friends, and exchange messages.

But today , major problem facing by Facebook is fake id's.
So to overcome this problem we can use mutual approving method.
At first glance it may look funny because we our self add friends but how can be possible of fake id's. Some times it looks so silly too.
But when experience a strange thing like some one is posted on your wall or other thing then you will understand the situation.
i think up to now what ever the algorithms developed by Facebook are not efficient to to overcome the problem.

Today i'am going to introduce new method i.e. mutual approval.
It is simple to understand and as well as for implementation .

It must be carried continuously for every year or for 6 months duration .
In this for one existing account to be validated it need to be approved by at least of 50 friends accounts or if it has less than 100 friends then it need to approved by 50% of his friends list.
One can send at most of 100 friends to validate his account.
If one dismiss for approving then they will no longer be friends.
If a validated account make a mischievous thing then who validated his account can(friends) can be take action against them or they can be prosecuted.
One can dismiss request for approving but from then they will no longer be friends.
Then now accounts which fails to achieve can be automatically deleted .
