ghostzillaDo you surf internet at work? How do you hide from your boss while you surfing the internet? Or did you get caught before? :p

With Gostzilla, you can surf the internet in any applications in Windows. Either in Microsoft Words, Internet Explorer, notepad or anything. This is a web browser which you can use to surf freely without anyone will notice.

But the images and texts are in gray and white colours. So, it’s not useful if you want to visit flickr or websites which have many images on it. But at least you can surf the internet right? ;)

I am looking for what are the highest paying keywords in adsense. And what I got is differ from what I thought before. I thought the top paying keywords are something like gadgets, nano-technology, etc but the top paying keywords are:

  • online casino
  • online gambling
  • buy xanax
  • gambling casino
  • valium online

Online casino is the highest paying keyword with maximum price $6.39  :o (this may change by the time). If you want to get more from your adsense, make a website contain with this keyword. Lol… Just kidding. :d

Actually it doesn’t matter whether your site have high paying keywords or not, the most important is your site must have good quality content, have something that can attract peoples to visit your site regularly and it give benefits to your readers.

Google_worldcup06Today when I open up Google.com, I saw they have change their logo on the main site. It is all because of World Cup 2006 which start about 11.00 pm (Malaysia time) in Germany.

The first match between Germany and Costa Rica. And Germany has won the match with 4 – 2. But I think Costa Rica should not have the goals because it were offside. I can saw it when the television rewind the goals in slow mode. [tags]google, world cup, world cup 2006[/tags]

Everyday you update your blog. You write about your life and post it on your site. But no one reads them. Then you try writiting about latest technology and gadgets hoping that you will get some comments from readers on the next day but still, not many people comes to your site. But you still continue posting and updating your site everyday, every night. After some period, you realized that you need to promote and advertise your site but you don’t know how.

Here I will share with you some tips on how to promote and get more readers to your site. I’m no expert in site advertising or marketing but I have some little knowledge that I want to share with you. :d

Join bloggers forum
Join and participate in bloggers forum or portals. Introduce yourself and brief politely about your site. Tell them what your site is about. I’m sure in every bloggers forum, there is a section where you can promote or show off your blog. Post something there.

Describe your blog and invite them to visit. If the forum admin enable signature in post (usually it is enable), put your site link in your signature. That way, peoples can see your site link when you post or reply someone’s post on the forum.

Visit other blogs
You must start it first. Don’t wait people come to your site. Visit other member�s blog and drop them some comments about their blog posts. Don’t give comments say something like, “Hey, nice site!” or “I love your site. Cool!” but give comments that relate to their posts. If they read your comment, they also will visit back to your site.

Another way is, if your post same like other people post, trackback their post. I assume you know how to use trackback. :p

winvistaMicrosoft is inviting people who want to test their new beta released, Vista Beta 2. Windows Vista which will available in early 2007 is currently looking for any volunteer who want to try Vista Beta 2 and give comments to improve it’s performance.

But before you decide want to dowload Vista Beta 2, make sure your computer is able to run it. Or you have to wait 10 minutes just to boot it up. :d

System Requirements

  • A modern processor (at least 800MHz1)
  • 512 MB of system memory
  • A graphics processor that is DirectX 9 capable

I love it’s interface. Reall love it. But it use too much memory, 512Mb RAM. WindowsXP minimum requirement is only 256Mb. Maybe the next Microsoft OS will use 1.2Gb of RAM. :(

IP Spoofing is a trick which an attacker use to spoof clients to think that the packets come from trusted machine. There are many types of IP Spoofing and these are common types of the attack:

  • Blind spoofing
  • Non-blind spoofing
  • Denial-of-service attack

To prevent from IP Spoofing, Jonathan Hassell has wrote an article about The Top 5 Ways to Prevent IP Spoofing. He explain some common attacks in his article and how to prevent from these attacks.

After read his article, I agree with his point to use encryption when transfer private data to others. It is more secure by that way.

I was shocked today when I want to login to my site, ZoneAlarm Pro gave me warning, Firefox want to send password to Bloglah.com. Huh? When did I want to send password to Bloglah.com. I want to send password to CypherHackz.Net so I can login to my site. I talking to myself.

I denied the request and Firefox sent me back to Wordpress login prompt. I type in my user and password and try to login again. ZoneAlarm warned me with the same question. Hey! Not Bloglah.com but I want to login to CypherHackz.Net…

There is something wrong with my Firefox I thought. I close Firefox and try to login from Opera. Still get the same warning from ZoneAlarm. So the problem is not from Firefox. But my computer.

thumbsdbWhen I upload a folder image to my site via FTP, there is a file called Thumbs.db go along with it. What is that file? I wondered.

What is Thumbs.db?
Thumbs.db is a file generated by WindowsXP each time you view folder contents in “Thumbnail” or “Filmstrip” view. This file is a cache file which use by WindowsXP to load up faster the next time you browse that folder.

How to remove it permanently?
You can delete Thumb.db and send it into Recycle Bin but it will keep appearing because by default thumbnails cache is enable in WindowsXP.

To get rid of it, go to My Computer > Tool > Folder Options > View and check “Do not cache thumbnails”.

Be Warned
By enabling this option, it will take a long time to open folder that contains large image files or quantity because the thumbnail images not been cached in Thumbs.db before.

After few days my site been approved by Text Link Ads, I have earned dolars from it by selling one text link ad on my site. If you noticed, there is a link on my sidebar under “Text Link Ads”. The ad will be there until the end of this month.

 

What is Text Link Ads?
Text Link Ads is not a pay per click program like Google AdSense but it is a program where you sell your site space to advertisers. For each text link ads sold, you will get half revenue from it. Let say the text link ad worth about $50, you will get $25 from it. With one link you’ll get $25, how about if you can sell 3 or 4 links or maybe more? You will get more than $100 for that month. There is a webmaster have make $600 just from selling text link ads on his site. Don’t you want to be like him?

Usually we only know about Google PageRank. Like my site, pagerank 5. But do you know, Yahoo has its pagerank too? But it is not Yahoo PageRank but it is called Yahoo WebRank.

Yahoo WebRank is a rank assigned to URL by Yahoo on a scale of 0-10. You can check your website webrank here.

I check my site webrank with ‘www’ and without ‘www’, the result still same. My site’s webrank is 0. How lame… Lol… :d

Anyway, what is your site’s webrank?
