Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco Tomorrow!

Max Lee — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 18:08:59 +0000

Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco is tomorrow! I will be there to take some free promotional T-shirts from various companies and see if there’s any new companies launching a cool product. Look for the guy with “Zedomax.com” T-shirt, that will most likely be me or the cute female strippers I hired.

Web 2.0 Summit (formerly named Web 2.0 Conference) is an exclusive annual event that connects the business leaders, big thinkers, and innovative technologists who are shaping the future of the Web.

Attendance to Web 2.0 Summit is by invitation only to maintain an intimate setting and foster dialogue among all participants. Web 2.0 Summit is moderated by John Battelle, Program Chair, and O’Reilly CEO and founder, Tim O’Reilly.

Since 2004, Web 2.0 Summit has become the gathering place for international leaders of the new Web, who gather to discuss and debate the most important issues, strategies, and disruptions driving the Internet economy.

Top 10 Worst Microsoft Names!

Max Lee — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 18:00:08 +0000

Here’s the top 10 worst Microsoft names ever made for your viewing pleasure.

If Microsoft had invented the iPod, it would have been called the Microsoft I-pod Pro 2005 Human Ear Professional Edition. The cult-hit video that makes that assertion may have been a joke, but it rings true. And when word emerged that the video was a self-parody produced within Microsoft, the point was even clearer: The world’s largest software developer just isn’t very good at naming stuff.

Skype for iPhone Official!

Max Lee — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 17:58:14 +0000

Remember the rumors about Skype for iPhone the other day? Well, it’s now official and you can expect it to arrive at the Apple App store tomorrow!

the free Skype for iPhone will finally be available to download from the iTunes App Store sometime on Tuesday. We got a chance to sit down with the application’s principal engineer before the announcement was made at CTIA 2009, to see Skype for iPhone do its thing. While most of the features aren’t too surprising–Skype does want to maintain some consistency across its mobile applications, after all–there are a few capabilities that are notably missing, and a few iPhone-only perks that are refreshing to see.

What Does The Internet Think?

Max Lee — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 14:27:13 +0000

As more and more years go by in this Web 2.0 world, we will begin to see more and more sites that have a full sentence domain name such as this WhatDoesTheInternetThink.Net, which aggregates search engine data to show negative or positive results on any given query.

Well, being the powerful entity that it is, the “internet” ought to have a mind of its own now, doesn’t it? Which is why this site called whatdoestheinternetthink tries to demystify those nagging questions which have, until now, remained unanswered. whatdoestheinternetthink analyses the search results from popular search engines (Google
, Yahoo & Bing), and categorizes the final result on the topic as being Positive, Negative, or Don’t Care. It also colorfully depicts the percentage of search results that fall under each of these three categories, along with a short summary of this topic being discussed on Twitter.

Microsoft Planning Evil Ads to Attack Apple's Mac Pricing!

Max Lee — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 18:32:40 +0000

Microsoft is planning an ad campaign that will attack Apple’s Mac pricing and I have to say this is another sorry effort by Microsoft to take down Apple when they should really be focusing on how great their products is.

Attacking another company has never been asset for Microsoft. They should really focus on their Windows 7 (which I admire them for making, Vista still SUCKS).

One participant named Lauren was told to buy a 17″ notebook for less than $1000. She was then filmed entering an Apple Store where she couldn’t find one. Lauren then heads to Best Buy and selects a $699 HP machine running Windows. That experience was turned into a 60 second TV spot for Microsoft after the agency told the buyer that the purpose of the excursion was really to promote Windows.

Here’s some good news that Skype will be coming to iPhone soon, this will be awesome for iPhone users who can start using Skype to talk overseas and cut down on the minutes used. Of course, Skype would have to be used via Wi-Fi, AT&T’s 3G service is still unstable and too slow to work via broadband.

A tipster — a very reliable one — tells me that Skype is almost ready to launch that iPhone version, perhaps as soon as next week. CTIA Wireless, a large mobile industry trade event, kicks off in Las Vegas next Wednesday, so perhaps the announcement will be made there. I am working on getting more details, as well as screenshots of the service.

Australian Censorship Board www.classification.gov.au HACKED!

Max Lee — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 18:21:33 +0000

It seems that Australian government has been planning too much internet censorship and the hackers have HACKED the Australian Censorship Board site.

Of course, there’s something wrong in this matter and that is the government.

As much as ANY government tries to censor the internet, the more hackers and the more people will fight back.

A lesson to be learned, do not angry your people, they will haunt your website by hacking it.

Australia’s official online censorship board’s web page was offline Thursday, hours after hackers hijacked it to protest revelations the government was going to require ISPs to block public access to thousands of websites, many of which aren’t obscene.

thomas anders how deep is your love mp3

Anonymous hackers defaced the Censorship Board’s homepage — classification.gov.au — and restated the board’s public message in a chilling and humorous tone.

“We are part of an elaborate deception from China to control and sheepify the nation, to protect the children,” one part of the five-sentence message read, according to a screenshot. “All opposers must hate children, and therefore must be killed with a (sic) large melons….”

How to Save AOL!

Max Lee — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 18:12:35 +0000

Before the days of free internet, there were dial-up services like Prodigy, CompuServe, and AOL. Of course, CompuServe used to be real big and Prodigy too, until AOL took over during the days of internet infrastructure.

Anyways, why has AOL failed as of lately?

They simply are not a necessary component of the web anymore. All the information that used to be provided from AOL was useful until millions of competition on the internet showed up.

For even deeper analysis, check out this cool post on how to save AOL:
(I don’t think they try to be Yahoo, they simply disintegrated due to fierce competition of the web.)

Simultaneously, AOL should have continued to “develop multiple web brands, with or without AOL logo,” under Netscape, ICQ, Winamp or AIM branding.
Steve Case should have never let Time Warner execs under the covers.
It’s not too late. AOL should go back to selling “A Premium Service, just like AOL used to market it. A choice between free Web Interface and AOL Classic experience for a modest fee. The content will be the same, it is the way that it renders that will make the difference.”

Don't Turn your PC ON at April 1st, Conficker Worm Coming!

Max Lee — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 10:40:31 +0000

Well, the whole internet world is flopping at the idea that this Conficker Worm could be activated this April 1st, also April’s Fools Day. We don’t think it will be THAT serious but just in case, we advise you to use a Linux or Mac computer on April 1st and leave your PC to OFF position.

Now, I am wondering if the Virus experts have tried turning their clock to April 1st to see the effects, maybe I should try it…

The scariest thing about the Conficker worm is that literally millions of infected Windows PCs could be linked together to do its bidding. The second scariest thing is that no one really knows what its creator is going to do with this virtual army on April 1, when it’s scheduled to contact a server for instructions. It’s so bad, Microsoft has a running $250,000 bounty for the author, dead or alive. (Well, they probably want him alive, but they hate his guts.)

Pixazza Turning Celebrity Photos into Bling Bling Dollars?

Max Lee — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 09:35:59 +0000

Pixazza rising force.mp3 is a working on new Web 2.0ish image tagging that basically targets to tag photos with products, sorta like Adsense Images gone Wildfly Web 2.0. We think it’s a good idea and highly suggest you to check it out too. On the side note, Google might also become one of its major investors. We see a good future ahead for Pixazza and they offer publisher programs for bloggers and alike.

The startup, staffed by Netscape veterans with a $5.75 million Series A venture capital round, on Wednesday is unveiling a service that lets Web publishers apply tags to photos on their sites—they literally look like tiny yellow-and-blue price tags. Hover your cursor over one of them, and a box appears that lists the product, such as a coat or a pair of shoes, that looks like (or actually is the same) coat or shoes in the photo. You can see the price and the retailers offering the products and click over to a retailer’s product listing.

Google Voice Search Coming to BlackBerry!

Max Lee — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 09:01:05 +0000

GoogleMaps were working on Voice Search not too long ago, now Google will be releasing Google Voice Search for Blackberry, a plus for Crackberry user like me. I think they are a little behind Microsoft as they launched TellMe voice search service last year but heck, as I always say, “Right Time at the Right Place” is more important than anything and I think Google has actually released their product at the right time, which is today, not last year.

Good job Googlers, I will have to try this when I am driving on the highway next time, hungry for KFC or Taco Bell.

Suppose you’re vacationing in London, and you have a craving for fish and chips. With the My Location feature enabled, you can just enter “fish n chips” into Google Mobile App, and it will return the fish and chips restaurants closest to you. No need to type in “fish and chips near SW1W”. And since Google Mobile App displays search suggestions as you type, you may only need to type part of the query before “Best Fish n Chips in London” pops up as a suggestion. We’re a fan of anything that saves keystrokes on the way to deep-fried British goodness.

Apple iPhone App Returns can be Costly, Apple Being "Evil"!

Max Lee — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 08:35:48 +0000

TechCrunch reports that Apple could be stymying iPhone App developers by allowing 90-day returns for consumers while Apple keeps their 30% commissions.

If 100% people return iPhone Apps, that means Apple keeps 30% while the iPhone App developers have to basically gulp out that commission to Apple.

Sorta reminiscent of Apple’s logo doesn’t it? (Take a bite out of the Apple)

For now, it seems clear though that Apple is being “evil” and basically cashing in something that should belong to the App developers.

Clause in the contract:

download rock away your teardrops

In the event that Apple receives any notice or claim from any end-user that: (i) the end-user wishes to cancel its license to any of the Licensed Applications within ninety (90) days of the date of download of that Licensed Application by that end-user; or (ii) a Licensed Application fails to conform to Your specifications or Your product warranty or the requirements of any applicable law, Apple may refund to the end-user the full amount of the price paid by the end-user for that Licensed Application. In the event that Apple refunds any such price to an end-user, You shall reimburse, or grant Apple a credit for, an amount equal to the price for that Licensed Application. Apple will have the right to retain its commission on the sale of that Licensed Application, notwithstanding the refund of the price to the end.

Boo Apple, can we have a little democracy here, not democrazy or any of that Hitler shite?

We will let you be the judge but our fairness tells us that this simply is “evil”, not that we doubt Apple isn’t.

Steve Jobs Payout for 2008 - One Dollar!

Max Lee — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 21:30:04 +0000

While Apple is raking in billions, Steve Jobs has been getting a dollar from his company.

Like they say, you need to re-invest 99% of your money back in your business in order to succeed, not a bad idea. After all, I am sure whatever Steve Jobs “could” get paid would be very much helpful to Apple indeed rather than putting it in his pocket now.

Steve Jobs took his customary $1 salary in Apple’s 2008 fiscal year, which ended Sept. 27. During the fiscal year he received no new performance-based grants of stock or option awards. (Jobs holds about 5.5 million shares of Apple’s stock and has never sold a share since rejoining Apple in 1997. His “level of stock ownership significantly aligns his interests with those of the Company’s shareholders,” Apple noted in its most recent proxy statement.) The company, meanwhile, grew its revenue and profits by 35% and 38%, respectively, in fiscal ‘08. Revenue came in at $32.5 billion, up from $24 billion in 2007. Net income hit $4.8 billion, up from $3.5 billion in 2007.

Cisco acquiring Flip Mino Camcorder Company Pure Digital for $590 Million!

Cisco, the company who claims to have lots of cash in times of recession, is proving themselves by announcing that they will be acquiring Pure Digital, the company who makes Flip Mino Camcorders.

“The acquisition of Pure Digital is key to Cisco’s strategy to expand our momentum in the media-enabled home and to capture the consumer market transition to visual networking,” said Ned Hooper, senior vice president of Cisco’s Corporate Development and Consumer Groups. “Pure Digital has revolutionized the way people capture and share video with Flip Video. This acquisition will take Cisco’s consumer business to the next level as the company develops new video capabilities and drives the next generation of entertainment and communication experiences.”

When budgets, bills, and finances are all simply in a giant pile of clutter, taking a simple, digital approach to reorganization can not only work wonders on your finances, it can automate a lot of the tasks you tried to do on spreadsheets or with pen and paper. This ensures that every dollar is tracked and financial goals are actually met. Reorganizing personal finances should occur in four phases: Assessment, learning, reorganization, and tracking.

Twitterfall - Real-Time AJAX Application for Twitter!

Max Lee — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 15:48:46 +0000

I have to admit that one of the hardest things about twitting is actually following a conversation. Even if you have a Twitter desktop application installed, I find that it’s hard to follow things in real-time.

Twitterfall, a real-time AJAX application for Twitter, solves this problem by allowing tweets to “fall” from the top as they are twitted live.

I see a great potential in this type of application, especially it’s also based on AJAX. I am not sure how successful this new site will be but it sure is very impressive, made by a 19 year old.

And so it is with the founders of Twitterfall, Tom Brearley and David Somers, two 19-year-old computer science students at the University of York who have made one of the best Twitter tools on the market

I am starting to find that Twitter is becoming increasingly useful for people to stay in touch with its readers or even promote a new e-book. I won’t go into details about how to do that here, but David over at TeleRead.org has an extensive DIY guide on how to do exactly that.

Kat has pumped out some 5,000 Twitter updates. She subscribes to messages from more than 1,000 fellow users and has attracted more than 1,500 “followers.” I also track Tim O’Reilly, founder of O’Reilly Media, now up to 54,807 followers, still a fraction of Barack Obama’s 379,716 before the First Keyboarder apparently abandoned Twitter for more conventional media. Unlike Obama, Kat can’t hold White House news conferences.

, that will keep you twittering along even while you check your e-mail. Of course, I wish there were multiple account option and I could maximize the screen as this guy tells us, (mine doesn’t have the double arrows for some reason) but this could come in handy for those of you who don’t want to cluter your desktop with Adobe Air apps such as TwitterDeck or Twhirl.

TwitterGadget is a clean, robust, web 2.0 style client for Twitter.com, designed to submit status updates to Twitter via your iGoogle homepage or Gmail Account.

TwitterGadget is completely AJAX based, meaning, at the user-specified refresh interval, only the status update content is refreshed in-line, on the gadget page. This means reduced bandwidth utilization between you and Twitter.com, while providing for a more user-friendly experience.

Find the Sale rapist Facebook group!

It looks like some people are trying to catch a rapist using Facebook. The only problem I see is that the CCTV screenshot doesn’t really show clearly enough of the rapist other than he seems like a black man, 200 pounds maybe? I think we will run into more serious issues like catching the wrong guy. Just don’t grab another black man, around 200 pounds and expect to find a rapist, that would be BAD, more like racial-profiling, not catching the bad guy.

Well, you never know though so if you want to help, sign up for Facebook group Find the Sale Rapist here.

The group, titled “Find the Sale rapist”, contains CCTV images of the suspect and details of the attack in Manchester last August.

Anyone recognising the man, who is described as white and in his 40s or 50s, is urged to contact police on a number provided.

10 Reasons why Skype Maybe the Biggest Web 2.0 Winner!

Max Lee — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 18:06:52 +0000

ReadWriteWeb has an excellent list of reasons why Skype maybe the biggest Web 2.0 winner. I have to agree, the real winners are hard to tell until the end, speaking of which, is there going to be an end to Web 2.0?

It has revenue, about $500 million in 2008. Ahem, only in the strange world of Web 2.0 is that considered remarkable. I love using Twitter, but without sustainable revenue their future has to be in question.
It is profitable. We’re talking “high-teen margins,” according to eBay’s CEO at the Accel Symposium. That does put it in a different league. It means they can survive the harshest of economic climates. If Facebook is having to raise money in these markets their model must be fundamentally flawed, which means their time as an independent company maybe limited. To control your own destiny, you need to be profitable.
Skype’s growth is accelerating in a tough market. Skype is publicly talking about growth rates of 30% to 40%. That’s not bad in an economy where flat is the new 30%. Skype has the perfect recession pitch: cut costs now! This shows in its most recent numbers. In the last quarter, Donahoe told us that Skype-to-Skype grew 73% and Skype Out grew 63%.
Disruptive technology. Disruptive technology is an over-hyped term, but in this case it really fits. Skype’s peer to peer technology enables them to dramatically under-price the competition and still make money. New users don’t cost much money - compare that with Facebook and YouTube. Even better, each new user that comes on improves the service for others - the core P2P proposition.
Viral marketing. Skype is the perfect viral business. I have lost count of the number of people I have told about Skype, for the simple reason that I want to communicate better/cheaper with them. Many of them are doing the same.
Massive market with vulnerable incumbents.$2 trillion is a lot of money. That is the size of the global telecom market. As to vulnerable, how many people feel so loyal to their telephone company that they won’t switch to get lower prices? Yes, when Skype dominates the market it won’t be worth $2 trillion any more. Even if it is worth 25% of that, say $500 billion, that is OK for the dominant player. Faced with the Skype threat, incumbents have a horrible innovator’s dilemma. To really match Skype will destroy their current business even faster.
Just wait until it bites into those cell phone bills.Skype on mobile phones - really native Skype you can use for free wherever there is WiFi - has been possible technically for some time. This has been held back by the mobile operator’s head lock on the device manufacturers. At some point the damn will break. Consumers pent up anger over nickle and diming cell phone bills will ensure that a real alternative will be welcomed.
Skype is totally mainstream. This is not about being hip or early adopter. Just show the video conversation to anybody with loved ones in distant places. You will see the surprise and amazement that makes it seem like magic.
It is a sticky service. Google still gets my business because they are better than the alternatives. But switching to an alternative will be totally simple. When somebody suggests using something other than Skype, I resist. I have my contacts in there, know exactly how it works and have integrated some external tools. Skype can continually add new features to make the experience better as our hunger for communication is pretty well limitless.
Skype can do an IPO. For anyone younger than 30, we should probably spell that out: Initial Public Offering. We keep being told that the IPO market is moribund because of Sarbanes-Oxley. Baloney! The IPO market is moribund because we have lacked profitable high-growth companies that move into huge markets.

10 Reasons why Skype Maybe the Biggest Web 2.0 Winner!

NVidia Counter Sues Intel!

Max Lee — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 18:17:18 +0000

It’s interesting to note that the 2 giant chip makers Intel and Nvidia have gone into legal battles over license conflicts.

I don’t care who’s right here, it just seems pointless that these 2 giants cannot come to agreement outside the court tables.

Today, NVIDIA has bucked back by filing a countersuit in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware against Intel Corporation for breach of contract. Furthermore, the action also seeks to terminate Intel’s license to NVIDIA’s valuable patent portfolio, which no doubt is reverberating with some level of intensity in the halls of Intel. According to NVIDIA, the countersuit was “brought in response to a filing by Intel last month in the Delaware court,” which is no doubt the little skirmish we referenced earlier.

Austin Police Faker Twitter Account Suspended!

Max Lee — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 18:15:07 +0000

Here’s an interesting news that someone had been impersonating the Austin Police on Twitter.

Although not much of a news to me, this could be pivotal for the police officers who must deal with bs on Twitter. Well, if they use Twitter that is.

I don’t think Twitter is that popular yet but this could be start of many, many impersonations on Twitter and they can’t stop ALL of them…

After complaints from the City of Austin and the Texas attorney general’s office, the social networking site Twitter has shut down a fake account that pretended to issue Austin Police Department bulletins with official-sounding messages that included “warming up my radar gun for SXSWi.”

The “AustinPD” page had about 450 followers. It was created in 2008 and used the official City of Austin seal. The page now states that the account “has been suspended due to strange activity.”

CraigLook Debuts as Web 2.0 Search Engine For Craigslist, Will Craig Newmark be Happy?

Max Lee — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 08:50:26 +0000

You have to look beyond every successful internet company and find out that they are all TEXT-based sites in the beginning. Well, some sites like Craigslist is still TEXT-only.

Others include Google search engine, mostly text and some new enhanced search features added but the core remains text.

Now, to make this text-thing a thing of the past, CraigLook debuts as the Web 2.0-ish search engine for Craiglist with image screenshots and thumbs. We think it has a quite a potential but it’s still beta so you be the judge.

It’s quite faster than we thought it would be and it’s packed with AJAX coding to make it run in real-time.

I still like the old text-only craigslist though, it works well on most phones without having a full-browser like the iPhone.

WiMAX Speed Tests!

Max Lee — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 19:46:53 +0000

Here’s some interesting data that folks at Gizmodo did, speed testing of WiMAX versus 3G EVDO on various different locations in Portland.

I think it’s clear that WiMAX can be 10 times faster than 3G EVDO but we still will need to see more antennas and better coverage to be near where Korea and Japan are.

I am still complaining though, why is USA still 3+ years behind WiMAX when Korea and Japan has been enjoying perfect coverage? Lol, I will let you ponder on that, not your fault, the big, evil telecommunication company’s fault.

Like most carriers, Clearwire takes advantage the many tall cell towers that line the highway, meaning you get WiMax’s sick bandwidth pretty much unbroken as you fly down the road at 60 or 70 miles per hour. In the following video—in 90 quick seconds—you’ll see the following:
• Speakeasy speedtest showing roughly 13Mbps at 60 miles per hour
• Skype voice call (sorry we didn’t do a video conference)
• Slingbox video that’s being uploaded via WiMax at Clearwire’s office, and downloaded via WiMax in the car
• Hulu, where we load up and begin watching a full-screen episode of The Daily Show, at 70 miles per hour

Apple iPhone takes Over 66% of Mobile Internet Market!

Max Lee — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 18:33:52 +0000

Here’s a good news on the Apple iPhone and how it takes over 66% of mobile internet market. It might be a great time to re-focus your internet marketing strategy to fit the iPhone mobile market. (if you haven’t already)

I am not sure if this is accurate though, it’s hard to tell Blackberry’s use since a lot of people use Opera Mini, that won’t be recorded correctly.

Other smartphone platforms haven’t fared any better, according to the metrics. Google’s Android and Symbian were both locked in a tie for 6.15 percent. Research in Motion’s email-centric BlackBerry OS was used less often at just 2.24 percent and was even outmatched by PalmOS devices, which represented 2.37 percent of cellular web use last month.

YouTube Hack - How to Embed Multiple Videos in One Player!

Max Lee — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 18:40:23 +0000

Embedr is a new website that lets you embed multiple videos from multiple sources (including YouTube, MetaCafe, and more), and let’s you create 1 embed code that lets you go through your favorite videos in one player.

Above is my 3 videos from the Super Bowl weekend, done in just 5 seconds. I like the fact that the site lets you create playlists without registering.

We created Embedr because we needed it. We simply wanted a way to put all our favorite videos from all over the web in one place. Since then, Embedr has evolved to service a multitude of different applications.

Dalai Lama on Twitter!

Max Lee — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 19:14:07 +0000

Lol… Dalai Lama is now on Twitter, please follow here.

It appears the Dalai Lama is following in the footsteps of Pope Benedict XVI and moving into the world of social networking. Today he joined microblogging service Twitter.

Going under the obscure Twitter name @OHHDL, The Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama sent out a welcome tweet earlier today introducing the official Twitter page of the Dalai Lama.

Delivr - URL Shortener for Mobile Content!

Max Lee — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 19:11:17 +0000

Delivr launches, a new URL shortening site, sorta like the CozyURL I made in 5 hours, except it’s been marketed for texting on mobile phones.

Looks promising but I don’t see a reason why you need to use it over a URL shorterner like CozyURL.

Delivr, currently in private beta (we’ve got invites - see below), literally mobilizes your web content. Whether it’s a web address, Flickr photo, YouTube video, or street address, Delivr will enhance the content for mobile viewing and generate a unique URL that you can then send to friends via social sites or SMS message.

Watch out for the Online Stimulus Package Scam!

Max Lee — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 19:56:01 +0000

I guess the new stimulus package is causing scammers to make new online scams to take your money and run.

Just watch out for any bs out there, here’s something from the IRS:

IRS E-mail and Web Policy

This new scam is typical of tax time behavior by the bad guys and the stimulus package only offers scammers the chance to get more creative. As such, it might be useful to re-examine what the IRS will and will not do on the Web.

The IRS does not initiate taxpayer communications through e-mail.

The IRS does not request detailed personal information through e-mail

The IRS does not send e-mail requesting your PIN numbers, passwords or similar access information for credit cards, banks or other financial accounts

If you receive an e-mail from someone claiming to be the IRS or directing you to an IRS site:

Do not reply

Do not open any attachments. Attachments may contain malicious code that will infect your computer

Do not click on any links. If you clicked on links in a suspicious e-mail or phishing Web site and entered confidential information, visit the IRS Identity Theft page
