What are rss: and feed: links ?

Addresses like feed: http://example.org/rss.xml   are typical feed protocol URI . They are used (at the moment of this writing) by feed readers/aggregators and other utilities related to feed processing. When you see them at a website, they look simmilar to the old XML icons, like in the following example:
These two protocols ( feed and rss ) allow syndication of feeds (like RSS or Atom) into your feed reader/aggregator software (like WinRSS , Vox Lite , FeedReader , ...).


Why not continue using HTTP ?


Two reasons (explained below):



  • http: cannot define actions.

  • http: cannot launch aggregator software from your browser software to perform subscription to a feed.


The main difference with http: URL is that feed: URI are to be processed by feed reader/aggregator software, while http: URL are usually processed by web browser software.


Like the mailto: protocol, which allows to define parameters (like Subject) feed: URI can express commands and parameters. Notice that http: cannot define commands, the only one is browse contents. When you enter an http URL in your browser, it always displays it.


Typical feed: commands are subscription to a particular feed (this is the default one), preview of the feed content, un-subscription from a particular feed, visit associated website or weblog, etcetera.


When you are browsing the web, and click a mailto: link, your e-mail software self-executes. Now, when you click a feed: link, your feed aggregator software self-executes.


Syntax


The new feed:// protocol is syntax compatible with the old rss:// protocol, it's only a matter of compatibility with previous software. rss:// is deprecated.



Feed:[//]<extensions> <feedurl>

<feedurl> http://example.org/rss.xml

Feed address


<feedurl>


The <feedurl> part of the URL is the address of any valid feed, for instance, an http file. As with current web browsers, http: is the default protocol:


feed :// example.org/rss.xml


Other protocols can be used, like network shared resources or local filesystem files. Use their corresponding syntax to form a valid feed: URI:


feed : file:// /c|/my%20documents/news.xml   (this is a Windows file)


feed :// ftp:// user:password@ftp.host.com/path/index.xml  (FTP file transfer protocol)


feed :// file:// \\server\share\index.xml   (a Windows networked file)


feed : file:// /server/share/index.xml  (another valid network format)



Simple link to a feed


By default, it is used to subscribe to that feed into your software:


feed :// http://example.org/rss.xml


feed : http://example.org/rss.xml


feed : example.org/rss.xml


Using this format, your feed reader software should ask whether you want to subscribe to that feed or perform any other action (display information, visit website...). Please notice that your software does not need to be an aggregator, it could be a validator or any other future idea.


This link format is currently supported by Vox Lite and WinRSS. You should include the "http" part in the string, as "ftp", "file" and other protocols are also valid.






 

Feed aggregators with feed: support


The following feed readers already have support for the feed: protocol:


WinRSS feed reader


Vox Lite


FeedDemon


Tricks to make other feed readers feed: compatible:


Trick for SharpReader


Compatibility with the old rss: protocol (since April 2003) is only required if you want compatibility with WinRSS or Vox Lite old links.


Webmasters: changing icons from XML to FEED


In order to ease the transition to the feed: protocol, you should change your current XML, RSS or RDF links. Please follow these steps:



  • Change the "http:" part of the feed URL to " feed: "

    Example:

    http://example.org/rss.xml

    becomes:

    feed://example.org/rss.xml

  • Change the associated icon, to express the new feed format.

    Get a copy (do not link directly) of   feed.gif   or create your own icon, for instance, an animated icon showing XML and FEED alternatively.

  • Do not use the new FEED icon with old links to http feeds, as that would confuse users (the RSS feed source code would be presented, and that's what the feed: protocol tries to avoid). Hint: Instead of replacing your old XML picture file, create a new one for the FEED.

One More Thing: Safari for Windows

"One more thing," the most anticipated words in a keynote speech given by Apple CEO Steve Jobs. The final major announcement of a Jobs keynote, one more thing is usually Apple's biggest and most secret product or project, previously having introduced items such as the MacBook Pro, various iPods, and AirPort 802.11 products. So whenever Jobs says those three words, the technology community tends to be all ears.


Not one to break tradition, at this year's Apple Worldwide Developer's Conference(WWDC), Jobs closed as always with one more thing, and as usual the audience got the unexpected. This year's conference and one more thing will likely be at the top of any top 10 lists for some time to come however, for the one more thing wasn't a new Apple product at all, it was Safari for Windows.


Safari, Apple's custom web browser for Mac OS X, has since its inception played a fairly minor role on the world wide web due to being limited to modern Macintosh computers, and hence a role and market share limited to the size of the Mac OS X install base. This has been scheduled to change for some time now as with the impending release of Apple's iPhone smartphone, Safari will be the shipping browser there too, with all indications of the iPhone quickly selling out. However nowhere in these public plans was a version of Safari for Windows, which may very quickly eclipse the market share effects of the aforementioned iPhone.


Given this unexpected release, it has taken very little time for Apple to drum up a lot of interest in Safari - having already passed 1 million downloads - nor has it taken long for a multitude of theories of sprout on and off of the WWDC show floor. It's not every day that someone releases a new web browser after all.


We have covered Safari in the past with our Mac OS X 10.4 review and A Month With A Mac series, with very little changing between Safari 2.0 and 3.0 other than Windows support. So rather than rehash those articles for anyone unfamiliar with Safari, we recommend reading those reviews first before continuing. Since the release of Safari 2.0 when Apple managed to take care of many of the performance issues with Safari, Apple has been trying to build a reputation for Safari as a faster browser, something they have only been marginally successful at so far. Having finally corrected a number of their performance issues in Safari, this is the key point Apple is trying to push with Safari 3, and we're eager to put it to the test. However it takes more than speed to crack the browser market, including memory usage and a slew of generally subjective issues within a browser such as flow. Although Apple is neither a newcomer to the web browser market or the Windows market, both markets can be surprisingly fickle and treacherous at times.


Does Safari have what it takes to challenge the dynamic duo of Firefox and Internet Explorer on Windows, or does Apple need to go back to the drawing board? Let's find out.

Cracking Password in Computer application or Internet Programs

Existence of cracking passwords programs (password cracker) very dangerous because poison is used for destroying, but also educate so that each and everyone always accurate and attention to his/her possession. Principal of this program is do trying and try. Cracker Programs are very easy to download from internet, like: Hades, Claymore, Cain, PWLFind, LopthCrack, ScanNT, NTCrack Password, NT, Brutus, Crack, Crackerjack, Viper, John The, Ripper, Hellfire, Guess, and more around out there and continuously increase and more sophisticated. After getting number or name user id, then tried to get ' the couple’ with a few method, among others:


Dictionary Attack
Take exchequer word from dictionary. Resolving of password is done through sentence or word testing which collected from various sources. Hence, would hardly risky if you chose password from common words, inclusion also popular term, name, town, or location. Like: new york, Brisbane, australy, etc. Check off password with contents of dictionary from A-Z is not difficult things. If Iucky! Faster ability of computer, would progressively find conformity.


Hybrid Attack
This technique rely on some algorithms heuristic, like adding number or word rear or in front of it, read from back (inversed), and way of other on unique. The cracker collects all information concerning the victim candidates. Then made by combination material, often met usage of password, like name of the user is then only added by year born or year present, example: Bob59 or casablanca42


Brute Force Attack
This last way is preety good, the weakness is take too much time. More than anything else, if pin password guessed was long enough and combination from many characters. By wearing this technique, every character in keyboard, like: letter from a-z, A-Z, and 0-9, and also ASCII character will be combined one by one until getting the answer.

What is affiliate program?

Affiliate program is a marketing cooperation, where somebody has the product (called producer) wish to sell his stuff and attract anybody that willing to sell his product (called seller).
Seller will sell producer's product and receive some commission that have been agreed previous between producer and seller. the amount is vary, producer-seller 70-30 or 60-40 or 50-50.
for the digital product such as e-book or sofware, producer will give more commission, higher than his like 30-70 because the producer doesn't need to print the product (e-book) or have big physical product (software), costumer can directly download the product from member area.
this situation is win-win business, nobody get lose here.
More buyers that brought by the seller more commission he/she gets

E-learning: A perspective of education through internet

Going to school is an activity that almost people in the world doing. Wake up in the morning, have breakfast, wait for the bus and arrive at school. School is exiting, we find many friends to play, share with, duscuss, gossiping etc until we graduate and go to higher education level and get the job.
I recent years, internet is bringing something new about "school". Called as virtual school made internet simple and nice alternative for school. there are always to sides of coin. cons and pros. in internet we can't do anything that we used to do at school like activity above, meet face to face (even now we have teleconference), touching each other and (ehm...) fall in love.

Well, but internet made education (also called e-learning) as easy as in front of you even your campus is in United State and you are in Indonesia. you don't have to go to US, stay there and follow lessons in real classroom. Just sit on your computer, turn on, connect to net, login and study. simple, easy and....cheap. Many education institutions has applied this such of model around the world. locally or internationally
