I am so sure that you guys have heard about the New Orkut which has been released a couple of days back.The new orkut is packed up with lots of exciting new features.Many of my friends including me didn't like the new interface very much, it really looks like a Xerox Copy of Facebook :-P.Even then the new version is really fast and it has many updates too

2009-01-16T14:00:00.000-08:00

What is Plagiarism..? (From Wikipedia)

Plagiarism is the use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.Plagiarism is not copyright infringement. While both terms may apply to a particular act, they are different transgressions. Copyright infringement is a violation of the rights of a copyright holder, when material protected by copyright is used without consent.

First of all what your need to do first is to get a free copyright from Creative Commons. Then put the Creative Commons Badge in your blog / site.If anyone copies your content you can even go to court for Copyright infringement (or copyright violation) with your creative commons copyright license..

Click Here to get Free Creative Commons License

Then what you need to do next is to find the ones who is copying your ideas and thoughts. For that go to Copyscape (it is an online Search engine to locate duplicated materials on the Internet) and type your website/blog URL and search to find your site's copies. You can also put a Copyscape badge to protect web Plagiarism .I recommend you to check your blog's copies using Copyscape once in a week

How To Convert Your Name Into Cool Avatar

2009-01-09T17:16:00.000-08:00

Have you ever wanted to make a avatar which no one else has seen or used...? If you have, try TurnYourNameIntoAFace. TurnYourNameIntoAFace, automatically converts your name (or anyone else’s) into an avatar.

Each name input produces exactly one avatar from over 100,000 possibilities, but not every avatar maps back to exactly one name.

This could be pretty useful if you’re looking for automatically generated avatars for your blog. There are other alternatives like Identicons, Wavatar or MonsterID which do the same thing.
