HTML 5 : We don’t need no XHTML
2007-07-20 17:55:00
Rules are meant to be broken they say, and when it comes to web standards looks like the same holds true. XML was set to be everywhere, even influencing one of the web’s pilars — HTML — in favor of XHTML….fast forward to summer 2007, and being retro is in : HTML has been revived as HTML 5. What does this mean ? What does it offer ? I’ll try and recap the web’s markup evolution and proposed future in this entry. At the time XHTML’s spec was announced by the W3C, moving from HTML’s v.4.01 over to the XML based XHTML seemed like a natural step, heck I even wrote on article on performing such a task HTML 4.01 to XHTML 1.1 , but in hindsight, the appearance of HTML 5 is a resounding “we don’t want no XHTML” or a more polite “we’d rather stick to what we know” from browser vendors and developers, with the almost guaranteed side effect : end users suffering at the expense of standards. Recapping the histor...

Holes in Firefox password manager
2007-07-20 17:51:00
The Mozilla developers have fixed a known hole in the password manager of Firefox & Co, but a door remains open for exploitation. If the user gives permission, the inbuilt password manager of the open-source browser saves passwords and enters data into the respective form fields on the user’s next visit automatically. This happens not only on the page where the password was saved, but also on all other pages on this server that contain a similar form. If users are allowed to create their own web pages on a server, as is the case on many community sites, an attacker may emulate the login form to have the access data, which are entered automatically, sent to his own server. In the past, a login form could even be set up to send the data directly to the attacker’s server as soon as the submit button was clicked. Firefox entered the data automatically regardless of the target of the specified action. However, the developers have now implemented changes to check the desti...

Multi-gigabit wireless “within three years”
2007-07-20 03:09:00
Multi-gigabit wireless technology using of extremely high radio frequencies (RF) to achieve broad bandwidth and high data transmission rates over short distances will be ready within three years making wired computers and peripherals obsolete, a team of Georgia Tech scientists announced today. Scientists at the institute’s Georgia Electronic Design Center (GEDC) expressed confidence that this approach could result in a range of personal area network (PAN) applications, including next generation home multimedia and wireless data connections able to transfer an entire DVD in seconds. The research focuses on RF frequencies around the currently unlicenced free-for-all 60 gigahertz (GHz) range. GEDC team have already achieved wireless data-transfer rates of 15 gigabits per second (Gbps) at a distance of 1 meter, 10 Gbps at 2 meters and 5 Gbps at 5 meters. “The goal here is to maximize data throughput to make possible a host of new wireless applications for home and office connect...

Search Engine Optimization - It’s All in the Writing
2007-07-20 03:09:00
We now propose to go right out on a limb and say that design has very little to do with search engine optimization. This is a sweeping generalization, I admit, and one to which my designer friends will take ínstant umbrage. But it is true to all intents and purposes. Design can certainly assist in achieving good optimization. By that I mean it will assist if it doesn’t hinder the process with acres of code that the robots need to wade through in order to find the potatoes and gravy. Or if the navigation throughout the site is logical and easy to achieve. Or if the pages are designed to load quickly. Other than that, optimization is all in the writing. Now, I am a copywriter with around 40 years’ experience in the advertising business; and there can be few people in the world who know less about design than I do. But my entire working life seems to have been spent arguing with designers about the length of copy in relation to the size of the pic in any given piece of wor...

On the Reports tab, you’ll see “Today’s Earnings.� This is the approximate amount you have earned today in your Google Adsense account.

As you can see, Adsense for Content, which refers to the targeted ads appearing on the pages in which you have written content, is listed first.

The Pay per Click Business Model and How It’s Changing
2007-07-20 03:02:00
There are currently many discussions in the webmaster forums on contextual advertising programs and the changes they are going through. Which program currently has the most ‘publisher friendly’ terms of service? Which company values it’s publisher’s more? Which will pay me more? Which will be better in the long term… And the most common, simple question: “Which one is best”? Is there a solid answer to this question? Here are some of my thoughts on the subject. The internet is an evolving creature by nature. It is not the same creature that it was ten years ago, or even ten days ago. It’s ALWAYS changing. Every single day, hour, minute, and second, something new is added to it. Someone is uploading their own personal creation at this very moment, helping to forge the web’s overall shape. So if it’s always changing, then to survive in it’s environment we must be VERY flexible and evolve with it. Why is this pertinent to PP...

Google Adsense: Rules Surrounding Invalid Clicks and Being in Control
2007-07-20 03:01:00
More than anything, an invalid click is a big no-no and it will get your account terminated faster than anything else. Having said that, an invalid click is when a publisher clicks on their own ads to add to their earning potential . It’s also when a publisher asks others to click on their ads just to raise their revenue. It also raises the advertiser’s costs and Google won’t tolerate this. Google Adsense has state of the art technology and they know what’s going on. Invalid clicks also happen when someone uses robots to click on ads or automated software. It is any deceptive practice used to click on ads. Invalid clicks are also unnecessary as there are plenty of money-making opportunities with valid clicks. With an optimized website, useful content, and attractive ads, there’s no reason for anybody to even entertain the idea of using invalid clicks. Having Control Over Your Adsense Account You the publisher, have complete control over the advertisement that runs on your ...
