Reunion Invitation

2010-10-27T11:50:00.000-07:00

Fellow Classmates,

Time has certainly flown by. It seems that it was only a 4-5 years ago when first around on the campus of MGITER. During our first days on the Campus we were able to develop life-long relationships and begin the transition to adulthood. Our experiences molded us and prepared us for the lives we now currently enjoy. It is not very difficult to remember bunks in last two lectures, puff and cold drink in magan kaka's canteen and 5:30 p.m. day-ending bell. These mutual experiences developed a special bond between classmates and all students of the MGITER Family. We know have an opportunity to celebrate this unique experience that is our 1st Reunion.

Please consider this page an invitation to participate in the planning and organization of our reunion. Homecoming is November 14, 2010 We would like to schedule bunch of activities. The final decision will be based on feedback received from class members. We would also ask that class members provide their preferred e-mail addresses. This will lessen the correspondence cost.
It is our goal to ensure that we do not let another significant anniversary pass without celebration. We hope that many others will join in the planning and participation. Please forward notification of your interest or suggestion to one of the following contacts:

Himani Bhatt ----green_turtles_9@yahoo.co.in
Maulik Vora ----- me@maulikvora.com
Vasav dave -----astrovasav@gmail.com

Please take time to review and critique the proposed schedule of activities. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Simple SEO optimization tips, article marketing

2010-06-04T10:12:00.001-07:00

The best thing about starting your own home based business is the cost. They are cheap, easy to maintain and it doesn't take your whole life savings to start. A lot of entrepreneurs kick the can when they start, don't know what to do, don't bother to learn and in return, fail in 90 days. Or you can be like the other half who put nothing but money into their opportunity and see no results, say this isn't working, and quit. With Google's ever changing system it is tough to keep on top of the search engines, until today. What happens if i have no experience?

I couldn't even think of what SEO meant until i researched and learned. Three easy SEO steps that will give you the free traffic, generate leads that you can monetize on, no one needs experience.

1) Articles - Why do industry leaders always make the top dollar month after month? They have branded themselves to show themselves as leaders, they have released articles, videos, everything pertaining to their opportunity and how you can find success within it. Brand yourself as a top professional and release articles weekly, daily if you can. Article's give you free placing on search engines and it will create the back-links you need to start increasing your page rank with Google, Yahoo and Bing. Free article releasing is the #1 way to get free traffic to your site and brand yourself as a professional.

2) Keyword Rich Content - No one wants to know how you think you are better than everyone else. Write a relevant article pertaining to your niche market. Use those keywords that you have researched that will generate you the specific traffic you are looking for. Use your title in your content, if you are writing about weight loss, use weight loss in your content and title, its that's easy. It will bring the potential sponsor to your article and then in turn to your website. If they are looking for weight loss, they want a catchy title that involves weight loss. Remember, you only have the first 3-4 words of your title to bring the reader in.

3) Keep it interesting - You don't need to write a 5 page article on why you think the sky is blue. Keep the readers intrigued with your content, keep it short and get to the point you need. No one will want to read your essay, everyone will want to read your short article on a quick and easy method to do something in their market.

Have your plan and set it into action. Release 4 articles a week if you can, more back-links you are able to get, higher of a page rank you will receive. Never buy leads and traffic again. Never submit your site to a page-rank damaging directory. SEO is easy, everyone can learn how to do it. No need to spend any more money on useless PPC.

Software Developers Tackle Child Grooming on the Net

2010-06-04T09:57:00.000-07:00

Four out of five children can't tell when they are talking to an adult posing as a child on the internet, according to researchers working on software to track pedophiles online.

Computer Scientists at Lancaster University have been working on a tool which can work out a person's age and gender using language analysis techniques. They hope it will eventually be used to help police and law enforcement agencies spot when an adult in a chat room is masquerading as a child as part of the victim "grooming" process.

For several months, groups of children and teenagers from the Queen Elizabeth School, Kirkby Lonsdale, Cumbria, have been taking part in experiments designed to provide the researchers with exactly the kind of informal web chat they need to help improve the accuracy of their software.

But the 350 students have also unwittingly been taking part in an experiment to find out if they know when they are talking to adults posing as children online.

So far the results show that even pupils as old as 17 struggled to tell the difference.

* Overall only 18% of children taking part in the experiment guessed correctly
* Approximately 4 out of 5 thought they were chatting to a teenager when in fact it was an adult.
* Girls were better than the boys, 22% of the girls guessed correctly, only 16% of the boys did.

The computer software did significantly better correctly working out whether web chat was written by a child or an adult in 47 out of 50 cases -- even when the adult was pretending to be a child.

The work is part of the Economic and Social Research Council / Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council -- funded project Isis.

Recent years have seen a rapid rise in the number and use of online social networks. These social networks pose two significant risks in terms of child exploitation: pedophiles predating on children in chat rooms and distributing and sharing child abuse media through online file sharing.

Experts at Lancaster, Swansea and Middlesex Universities have joined forces with specialist UK law enforcement to develop a project to help address these risks by harnessing developments in technology and to ensure that such developments maintain ethical practices.

Eventually, researchers believe the software could be used not only to identify adults posing as children but also to pick up on the 'Stylistic foot prints' of pedophiles and trail them as they move around the internet.

Once fully developed, these techniques will be automated, potentially freeing up police time and adding to the expertise already deployed within investigations which identify and locate child sex offenders.

Lead researcher, Professor Awais Rashid of Lancaster University's Department of Computing, said: "Pedophiles often pose as children online and our research indicates that children don't find it easy to spot an adult pretending to be a child.

"In our analysis we found that 4 out of 5 children across the school got it wrong. Interestingly the strategies they use to detect who they are talking to are also the ones that lead them to make wrong decisions -- they rely on the subject matter, use of slang and even something as simple as whether the individual said he or she was an adult or a child. This really highlights the need for a safety net of some sort.

"We hope to develop an automated system which can pick up on quirks of language particular to a certain age group. These language patterns can help us to expose adults that seek to groom children online, by posing as children in chat rooms for example.

"The school has been brilliant, putting enormous effort into the project which has provided us with valuable data and also given the pupils here an important insight into internet safety."

Alison Wilkinson, Deputy Head of the Queen Elisabeth School, said: "QES is really committed to keeping its students safe beyond the school gates and beyond the school day. We are concerned about the dangers our pupils face when they're online and have welcomed the opportunity to help the project at the same time as raising pupils' awareness of the risks. It has been chilling to watch them being taken in by adults masquerading as teenagers."

How HTML 5 link prefetching can make your site load faster with one line of code.

2010-06-04T09:53:00.000-07:00

One of the lesser-known jewels of HTML 5 is link prefetching. The idea is to extend the time-honored concept of image preloading to HTML content (and without any messy AJAX code).
Here’s how it works: You add a line like this to your page:

Then the browser automatically downloads page2.html in a background process as soon as the user’s computer is idle. When the user finally clicks a link to page2.html, the browser serves it from the cache, and so it loads significantly faster.
Link prefetching is currently only supported by Firefox. But since Firefox is the second most popular web browser in the world, you can noticeably decrease load times for a significant chunk of your users just by adding one line of code to your HTML. Pretty cool, huh?
Here are some ways you could use link prefetching:
* Anytime you split content across multiple pages, as in large articles, online tutorials, image slideshows, etc.
* On your homepage to preload whatever page your users tend to click on next. (That could be the “features” page on a product site or your most recent entry on a blog.)
* On a search engine to prefetch the top result.
You can also use it for static content using the prefetch rel:

A couple other interesting points:
* Link prefetching will probably pop up in Opera, Chrome and Safari soon, and in Internet Explorer sometime around 2020.
* If this becomes popular it has the potential to skew logs and stats. Consider what happens when a bunch of prefetch requests are made to one of your pages, but the user never actually visits the page. The server (or stats package) doesn’t know the difference.
To clear this up, Firefox sends along an HTTP header, X-moz: prefetch, but you need some logic on the server side to detect it.
