Random thoughts

juat a quick update before i hit the sack, i hav to sleep early tonite, gotta go to campus at 7 am.my random browsing today lead me to a surprising news, well not that surprising,..anyway, remember my late post bout the Twitter phising attack. Guess who got phished?  Jason Mraz… (@jason_mraz)

yesterday jason mraz twitter got hacked, Mraz account curretly sending a tweet followed by  a link that will cost you a phone bill if you follow through with the request, i suppose thre a social engineer going on here, think about it, it doesnt make sense if someone like  json mraz makes such a fool action like giving away his twitter password to a person or to a some unknown site (read my post about phishing attack) . A few moment after he knew his Twitter bein hacked he confirmed it on his Facebook account,said, ““**IMPORTANT** someone has hacked into Jason’s twitter account. Don’t believe anything that is tweeted until we have access back into the account!” He seem to be freakin out. ;D

another news i got is about HTML5 VS Flash. a famous social media news held a survey about which one  do you prefer to choose to watch a youtube video,and this is the result :

HTML5 handily knocked out Adobe Flash. With 3,891 votes, HTML5 garnered 61% of the polls. Adobe Flash was able to muster 1,779 votes (28%), while 660 said it was a tie (10%).

it havent even release yet (the one that used by youtube is a Beta version), but it already feat flash, maybe Steve Jobs statement, said that adobe lazy ,buggy and the world about moving to HTML5 does make an effect on this survey, who knows,… but one thing for sure, every Apple action always set the new standart of all device,  but it just my opinian.

anyway, i put many tag word on this post, sorry if you think those word doest even related, but i think it does related.

nite folks!

*i got a paragraph to translate, trying to help lyla on her way to get master degree*

another earthquake today, this time happened on chile, its a massive one, about 8,8 magnitude, from the rumour i heard, its 1000x more powerfull than haiti`s, by the time i write this post, about 120 people found dead and im pretty sure the victim would raise up, they just havent found yet, from what i heard this eartquake would effect a huge tsunami in some place in the world, japan , hawaii and australia has put  an alert warning to everyone  on the coast side, even waikiki beach (the most famous beach in hawaii) has already been clear up, seems like  everyone so over panic with this, well they shud be, they  better be over reacted than do nothing, i just hoping there wouldnt be another eartquake and more victims found  because of this. i hope the earth stop making unecesarry movement.

nite folks.

*its almost 4 am and i havent sleepy yet, somekind of insomnia i guess, or maybe my biologic time  has turn upside down, i hope i can fix it, i had enough problem because of this*

todays news (actually 5 days ago, but i just noticed today) is all about bloom box, this not just an ordinary  box this box could powers your whole house, sounds like a big battery for me, but dont get it wrong this stuff is not as big as you imagine,  you can even hold it, it fits in your hand, this box as small as a rubic cube,this box developed by one of  Silicon valley company (i though silicon valley only produce computer stuff), evethou this box havent release for the public usage yet, but this breakthrough electricity techology has been used by severals silicon valley company, such as  Google, this box provide a green energy, no emissions produce,  But who cares, i dont think this ‘box’ gonna get to indonesia soon.

anyway i hear a rumour said that the upcoming iPhone OS (that will also use on iPad) indicated that the new iPhone and iPad will support video call (see the pic above), thats mean they gonna have a front camera,but theres no official statement from Apple bout it. But again, ‘who cares’ im not an iPhone nor iPad user,  i just adore the technology inside that stuff

hey, im making a polling, if there any of you somewhere out there coincidently read this post, feel free to poll ;p

nite folks!

*umm today… not pretty good day for me, im  having a lil problem with her, make me  kinda awkward, screwed,mess up, you name it…hope ill make it up soon like it used to be*

my iPod Touch flip screen feature fixed! , but the bluetooth screwed up, it seems taht i had to buy for the license to get it works again,  i think i can solve it, theres always the cracked version for every apps, i just had to wait, but patience ain’t a virtue I possess, i hope it`ll come up soon.

anyway, today i  read nothing from the internet, so i guess i had nothing worth  to write

stop

end

its a quiet nice day, everything goin on like it suppose to be, lyla got the signature she needs, its good to see her smile again, been a few days she always get sad evrytime we got home from campus, hopefully she can get everything done soon.

so..do i got something crap to write today?ummm, i think i got one, another hot news this week is about phishing attack on Twitter, i dont know exactly what does phising attack really is, but in my opinian that would be somekind of hacker attack, the aim of this thing is to steal your password, in this case, your Twitter password.  so who would be so evil doin this crap shit?idk, thres no article said bout it,, the modus of this attack is, you`ll get a message with a text  “this you???’  followed by a link that will send you to a  web that would ask you to enter and confirm your Twitter password, do not fall with the trick, coz you dont acctually login to your twitter account, instead it`ll send your password to the hacker. Been thinkin, i wonder why he doin it? why would he need  someone twitter account? what he`s up to do with someone twitter account? why dont he just hack bank database and steals credits card info? why dont he just hack AppleStore database and ask Apple to send him an iMac? Umm .. maybe hes a Twitter addicted hacker ;D

heres a video i got from youtube about the attack demonstration

another news from twitter today, is that they`ve make partnership relation with Yahoo, now you can update your Twitter status from Yahoo…(so what)

Nite folks

*been a couple of time lyla ask me to write something about my ipod touch bluetooth feature, she think thats awesome, but i havent write any, i`ll write it soon *

something wrong with facebook today, i found it difficult to open my account, it said that facebook under maintenance, such a crap, its getting boring and boring everyday, soon everyone gonna feel the same… and (maybe) turn to twitter. Twitter its whole lot cooler than facebook, simple yet addicting, at least that what i feel, at the first time im using it,  for about 2-3 month all im doin on twitter was just updating my status (something that i almost never did on facebook), thou is nothing fun with that, dont need to wait longer to get myself bored with that,  then im starting to read  whats goin on  on the trending topics, and i guess it makes me excited with twitter, i suppose all of you already know what does trending topic means, trending topics is a top ten list bout something  most people talking about at the recent time, sometime the trending topics is talking about artist,news, or just talking  something crap such as “what are you playing  right now?” / ( #nowplaying), or sometime its about funny joke (this is something i really excited with), and now as the time goes by (blah), i found myself rarely updating my twitter status, more of my college friends join twitter, and now for me twitter became more than something to put what-happning-to-you status, its became a chat room!. Another thing i noticed to be interesting from twitter is you can get the most updated news from around the world/ certain place (depends whom are you following to ). Anyway todays news is about how twitter growing rapidly, this january Twitter hits 50 million tweets per day, it said that

- In 2007, around 5,000 tweets were sent per day.

- By 2008, the number grew to 300,000 tweets per day.

- By 2009, around 2.5 million tweets were sent through Twitter every single day.

- Tweet growth shot up by 1,400% in 2009, reaching 35 million tweets per day by the end of the year.

- As of now, Twitter sees 50 million tweets created per day.

this number definetly noteworthy and provide evidence for statement that said  Twitter is not growing,..umm actualy i dont care at all what people said about  twitter whethr is not growing or whatsoever, i just enjoy this social  network service. ;p

nite folks!

Evrything`s ok today, except that im loosing my iPod Touch rotation feature, dont know what wrong with that, im trying to find out how to solve it on the internet but i cant find any solution, every threat about ” iPhone/ iPod touch rotation feature disfuntion” always said that you got to fix it on Apple store, theres no certain hack to  solve it, if the problem occur on the software i can assure i can solve it, but  its a hardware problem,. definitely something im not good at… i lost one of iPhone OS best feature,my bad -_-

Been thinkin, been months i`ve downloaded many apps without paid any of it, maybe this is my price to pay,..well im not sorry thou, im not stealing, i just downloads what the internet provide for me, i think  i got a lot more cooler feature  than just a flip-screen-interface . . . eventhou w/o rotation feature, my iPod still the best gadget, esp because i had it from someone that very special for me.

im trying to write something before hit the sack. So umm,what do i got today? i got lil problem with lyla,i got myself starving till 10pm (that bcoz i got myself fasting today), and i got a lil news from google, i guess its not a big news, but i think worth to write, they always got something to tell about, everyday.. Anyway, do you know that the founder of goo gle both are a 36 years old guy? cool  isnt? they`re Larry page and Sergei brin, both are computer science, both are jews, both have a Phd degree, and i can assure you both are freakin genius and both came from a high educated family, Larry page father is a computer science professors and Sergei brin  father is a mathematics professor, and his mother is a research scientist at NASA, well this explain where the genius brain come from, all this time i thought we dont need to be a genius to create something  huge,  i guess i was wrong, well not interely wrong but  sometime huge thing  can only be done by a genius,

Ok, back to the news, todays news from google is that google expanding their empire with another branch, so what is it? let me introduce you Google Energy, the point of this news is that google now can buy and sell energy, so does it mean google set to become energy provider? not yet, but theres the possibility. Wow, seems clearly they`re trying to make world domination in every aspect, let see if it goin to works.

nite folks!

No blackout tonite, i thought there would be another blackout for a few days, but i guess i was wrong. Anyway i just found a really cool site, this site run by a software company, maybe you never heard about it, what i mention is Oblong industries.inc, this company develop what i called as the future computing system, have you ever watched minority report or avatar? if you havent, then u have to watch it, than u`ll get what i mean, .

Here a lil explanation, the oblong industries is the developer of the g-speak spatial operating environment, so what that mean? actually i dont know, it sounds like programming language  for me, but what i do know is, this project were inspired by minority report, a movie whose characters performed forensic analysis using massive, gesturally driven computer displays (you name it), actually the similiarity is no coincidence, from what i read, one the Oblong founder were served as the science advisor and the technology he used were based on the earlier work hes trying to develop on his lab, MIT (FYI: the rumour has it, MIT is the best technology institute in the world, this is where most of the NASA employee come from) ok, back to the project, the aim of this project is making a future computing system based on gestural interface where people can interact with the computer without using any mouse or keyboard, the point is  you`ll control everything just by pointing you finger ! now  thats  what i call the future. (kinda ironic im talkin about future computing while im still using celeron processor computer).  Without further a due, watch this video, feel free to amaze

please notice,this is just the beginning, the best yet to come…

Nite folks!

one thing i notice today is malang got another blackout  which  started and ended at the same time just like the day before,i think it`ll keep goin over and over again for the next few days,,anyway,i just watch hachiko, lyla said this is an movie an extremely sad movie, but hey, i aint sad at all ;p

Another news i got from the internet today is about Google, remember the cyber attack on google  china? well the google company were make an investigation and conclude that the cyber attacks came from a chineese school !!!  according to the report, the attacks were began as early as april, a month earlier than previously thought, but according to the news there also another  educational departement suspected to be involved, the departemant they mention were Shanghai Jiaotong University, well it does make sense, ive  doin a lil reseach bout this university, and it said that it has a leading computer science department and recently won an international competition organised by IBM, another fact i found that many of this university alumnus are silicon valley employee,which mean they`re definetly good with computer programing , system hacks or whatsoever…(definetly something im not good at). The chineese goverment denied they`re involved on this system-attacks which pulled this search engine out of their comunis country (what a liar ), but i gotta say, chineese hacker are freakin awesome, they hack one of  the world best internet company, indonesian hacker shud learn from those guys. ;p

oh i forgot, the school i mention on my post is the Lanxiang Vocational School, i got no information bout this school,tell me if you got one.,.

*another news–> did you notice facebook became twice as fast with their new look? ? thats what i read, but i felt nothing different thou *
