Social Media Code of Ethics

Thu, 20 Oct 2011 04:09:56 -0700

Social Media Code of Ethics defines the rules of communication in social media, with which compliance is voluntary, but for successful business communication is assumed to be binding.

In the real world, we understand the need for good manners and social networks have perhaps even more sensitive users. Therefore, we have to determine minimum rules of communication before seriously intentioned promotion.

Social Media Code of Ethics of communication

Write reasonably often according to the type of communication (company, news, community), Non-spam.
Write in natural language, namely, no unnecessary marketing sentences.
No censorship.
No lie.
Don't fight with your fans, customers and competitors. Just don't. Even if you win the battle, you will always loose the war.
Respond to questions with patience and understanding.
Be able to admit error, apologize, and to correct.

Crisis of communication

The crisis may occur in social media not only like violation of these rules as well as non-communication, if such company does not respond to the cause, which to us attacks every day from newspapers, then it will respond others, and it probably will not be very positive.

If you don't do it for you, others do it on your behalf.

No basically depends in which media crisis started, the company can hit a bad begin and a big scandal will be spreading across the Internet.

3D video transmission

Tue, 04 Oct 2011 04:10:26 -0700

First 3D video transmission live from space

ESA-developed camera produced live-streaming 3D images for the first time in the history of space travel. On 6 August, NASA astronaut Ron Garan operated the Erasmus Recording Binocular (ERB-2) camera in Europe's Columbus laboratory, showing the International Space Station as never before in high-definition quality. While talking about the work on board the Station, he enhances the sense of depth and presence by playing with an inflatable Earth globe.

Wireless data from light bulb

Tue, 13 Sep 2011 07:14:00 -0700

What if light bulb could also transmit data? At TEDGlobal, Harald Haas demonstrates, for the first time, a device that could do exactly that. By flickering the light from a single LED, a change too quick to for the human eye to detect, he can transmit far more data than a cellular tower, and do it in a way that’s more efficient, secure and widespread. (Recorded at TEDGlobal 2011, July 2011, in Edinburgh, Scotland. Duration: 12:52.)

Cool URI don't change

Sun, 26 Jun 2011 23:50:00 -0700

URIs don't change: people change them.

There are no reasons at all in theory for people to change URIs, but millions of reasons in practice.

Very nice and snappy article about the reasons for the changes is available on cool URI:

http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI

Explanation (source http://nb.vse.cz/~gala/4it383/pomucky/uri.htm):

URI - Uniform Resource Identifier. The generic set of all names/addresses that refer to any source.

URL - Uniform Resource Locator. The unofficial term (no longer used in technical specifications), which is associated with popular URI schemes such as http:, ftp:, mailto:, etc.

URN - Uniform Resource Name. It has two meanings:

it is a URI, which is institutionally defined duration, availability, etc.
is one of the URI scheme

For more information see URIs, URLs, and URNs: Clarifications and Recommendations (http://www.w3.org/TR/uri-clarification/).

Dual Boot Windows 7 with XP

Mon, 30 Aug 2010 15:27:27 -0700

Initial conditions:

C:\ drive to install Windows 7,
drive for example F:\ ready to install Windows XP.

Problem: If you install Windows XP operating system on a Windows 7-based computer, Windows 7 no longer starts. In this case, only the Windows XP operating system starts. Solution for dual boot Windows 7 with XP:

Start Windows 7 System Recovery Discs and repair existing Windows 7 instalation (if you don't have any, you can download Windows 7 System Recovery Discs).
As administrator copy file F:\ntldr and F:\boot.ini into root C: (because to run a version of Windows operating systems based on Microsoft Windows NT, these files are necessary).

Edit file C:\boot.ini

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS="Windows XP" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn

Note: You can change bold written text, partition number depends on the partitioning:

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS

Restart the computer.

Post-installation verification:

Click Start, click Accessories, right-click the command-prompt shortcut, and then click Run as Administrator. Use Bcdedit.exe for verification entry in the BCD Boot.ini file for the earlier version of the Windows operating system, more http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B919529&x=18&y=10

Stop search engines indexing your web

Wed, 17 Feb 2010 20:26:44 -0800

1 Theoretical possibility

1.1 /robots.txt - robots exclusion file

Create file /robots.txt:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

Search Engine Support: Google, Yahoo, Bing, ...

1.2 Use page meta tags robots

<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow" />

2 The only sure method

2.1 Password protected web - web server solution

Example for Apache server: httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/htpasswd.html Create a file called .htpasswd:

user1:nbGwQ3aJkq3qE (e.g. user1:encrypt password1)

KxS Password Encrypter: www.kxs.net/support/htaccess_pw.html Create a file .htaccess:

AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /mysite/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user

Upload .htpasswd (best) to the root or a non publically accessible directory on your server. Upload .htaccess to the directory you wish to protect.

2.2 Password protected web - cms solution

Protected area for registered users dependent on a specific CMS.

2.3 Computers and Humans apart

Video mapping the trend of visual art

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 15:02:13 -0800

Video mapping the trend of visual art that uses the projection of free space on any objects, such as facades or interiors of buildings. To realize the need for a strong projectors, the corresponding software and darkness, or at least dim. To prepare high-quality screening is required prior knowledge of the scene, are often created 3D models of space within the building or facade, to obtain a perfect fusion of light opera with a scene. The result then recalls the film sequence in which the real background blended with a virtual plot, such as the facade of the emerging individual bricks, in the windows are people and objects fly out, of the roof flowing waterfall, etc. Generally, the main purpose of mapping the video projections which cooperate with the selected object and seek to dismantle the perception of the viewer's perspective.
