*Sigh*
Posted by Nico Yan in Uncategorized Wednesday, 27 September 2006 19:30 1 Comment
woah! I haven’t really blogged in ages.
First : I’m not happy with my current work because my job description doesn’t really involved computer hardware/software, its all about clerical work. But because of my experience and knowledge I was given “extra” task that I really love to do, like hardware/software troubleshooting. Even though I do things I love within the division/department its still for a moment. I want to put my knowledge full time not when I was ask to do so or theres some problem that occur. I love doing web designing and graphics manipulation but instead I rectify and digitized satellite images or topographic maps. I think my knowledge for things I love to do is slowly fading away. And the salary sucks! (well kinda, this doesnt include the incentives), they base your position from your educational attainment not of your experience and knowledge!. IM THE BEST AND WILL BE THE BEST!! (but I need to catch up)
Second : Im asking Benjo to help land a job in the company he is working on. I want to be there because the position Im applying for is one of my forte, and the salary is good. Benj if your reading, PLS HELP ME!! hehehehehe
Third : Family life isnt that difficult if you just don’t count the financial aspect of it. I love my family more than life itself and Im doing what I know best, without any 3rd party interference, to run my family. I would love to have my family experience things that I have enjoyed when I was kid, but I may not have the luxury of experiencing those things again with my family for there are conflicts in one way or the other.
Fourth : Where did I go wrong? I may not look like it but Im a serious guy. The organization Im into doesnt have the will power to help. Im testing them all and 3 people stand out that is willing to help out with me saying do this and do that. Guys! Im not superman you know I cant do everything..

Marketing Strategies
Posted by Nico Yan in Uncategorized Tuesday, 26 September 2006 21:31 No Comments
1) You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and say, “I am very rich. Marry me!”
* That’s Direct Marketing.
2) You’re at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl.
One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says,
“He’s very rich. Marry him.”
* That’s Advertising.
3) You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and get her telephone number.
The next day you call and say, “Hi, I’m very rich. Marry me.”
* That’s Telemarketing.
4) You’re at a party and see a gorgeous girl.
You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink. You open the door for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her a ride, and then say, “By the way, I’m very rich. Will you marry me?”
* That’s Public Relations.
5) You’re at a party and see a gorgeous girl.
She walks up to you and says, “You are very rich..”
*That’s Brand Recognition.
6) You see a gorgeous girl at a party.
You go up to her and say, “I’m rich. Marry me”
She gives you a nice hard slap on your face.
* That’s Customer Feedback !!!!!

New Browser Offers Stealth Mode Surfing
Posted by Nico Yan in Uncategorized Monday, 25 September 2006 20:44 1 Comment
A free, portable web browsing tool designed to boost privacy for internet users has been unleashed
this week by human rights group, Hacktivismo. The TorPark download is a modified version of the
portable Firefox browser and can be loaded onto a memory stick, for use at home or on any public
computer, said the group, which describes itself as a collection of computer security experts committed
to “developing technologies in support of the highest standards of human rights”.
The Torpark private browsing technology covers users’ tracks by linking their computer to a distributed
network of servers called the Tor Network via an encrypted tunnel which allows them to surf the internet
anonymously.
The creators of the software said it was built to defend against common practises such as tracking
IP addresses used by numerous websites and ISPs for traffic analysis, which can also be monitored
to pinpoint a user’s identity.
“Torpark causes the IP address seen by the website to change every few minutes to frustrate
eavesdropping and mask the requesting source. For example, a user could be surfing the internet
from a home computer in Ghana, and it might appear to websites that the user was coming from
a university computer in Germany or any other country with servers in the TOR network,” the group said.
Hacktivismo was formed out of the hacking group The Cult of The Dead Cow, which operates under
a remit to fight “anyone or any government that aspires to limit free speech”.
“We live in a time where acquisition technologies are cherry picking and collating every aspect of our
online lives,” said Hacktivismo founder, Oxblood Ruffin.
Although Torpark anonymises a user’s internet connection, Hacktivismo loved it could not shield any
data being transmitted between locations, which meant that users should abstain from using any
username or password on websites that do not provide a secure login and session.
