Happy Friendship Day
“A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.” – Walter WinchellThis is a new one to me! Apparently, Friendship Day is the first Sunday of August and was declared as a holiday in US in honor of friends by a Proclamation made by US Congress in 1935. Since then, World Friendship Day is being celebrated every year on the first Sunday in the month of August.
This beautiful idea of celebrating Friendship Day was joyfully accepted by several other countries across the world. And today, many countries including India, celebrate the first Sunday of August as Friendship Day every year. Celebrating Friendship Day in a traditional manner, people meet their friends and exchange cards and flowers to honor their friends. Lot many social and cultural organization too celebrate the occasion and mark Friendship Day by hosting programs and get together.

USA tops the spam charts relaying 1 in 6 spam e-mails
Sophos has revealed its latest global spam figures for the second quarter of 2009 and the U.S. continues to top the charts relaying 1 in 6 of all spam messages sent. What that means is one in every six spam messages sent is done through a compromised machine located in the U.S.
With these figures Sophos has suggested that the U.S. needs to look in its own backyard before looking overseas for cybercriminals. Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at Sophos said:
Barack Obama’s recent speech on cybersecurity emphasised the threat posed by overseas criminals and enemy states, but these figures prove that there is a significant problem in his own back yard. If America could clean up its compromised PCs it would be a considerable benefit to everyone around the world who uses the net … All web users need to properly defend their computers from attack, and pledge to never act upon spam messages.
Compared to last year Russia has seen a significant drop in the amount of spam relayed through the country. Now it only relays 3.2% in 9th position where as last year it was second with 7.5%. Columbia has now left this so-called Dirty Dozen and Poland has seen an increase in spam taking it from tenth to sixth this year.

How to Make Free Or Cheap International Calls Using VoIP
Most of us have some friends and family living, studying or travelling in different parts of the world. In the past, expensive international call charges meant that people often went for weeks or months without actually hearing their loved ones’ voices. These days, though, all that has changed. Thanks to Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology, it’s now possible to call anyone, anywhere, at any time, for as long as you want - and it’s cheap, if not free.
Airmail letters, telegrams, long-distance echoes … it’s time to relegate all these to history. These days, thanks to email, it’s easy to communicate with people all over the world. Email and messaging services allow you to read, almost instantly, what someone has written to you. And now VoIP technology means you can make international phone calls using broadband, too.
These calls can be free, as long as you’re prepared to accept some limitations. For more flexibility, you can sign up with a VoIP provider that offer low-cost monthly call plans.
Free international calls
Typically ‘PC to PC’ enables you to make free international calls. To enjoy free international calls, you, and the person you’re calling, both need the following.
1. a computer or laptop
2. a broadband connection
3. a headset/ microphone/ speaker (these may be integral to your computer)
4. an account with a VoIP provider that allows this type of calls, such as Skype or MSN.
This system suits many people. But it does have its drawbacks:
• you are tied to your computer, as is the person you’re calling;
• you need to make sure that you’ve both signed up to compatible providers that will allow you to talk to each other (usually, this has to be the same provider, though is starting to change);
• it is totally independent of your traditional landline service, so you can’t just pick up the phone and dial any number you need/want to, it has to be PC-to-PC;
• you can use this to make a calls to other landlines or mobiles, but if you do, you will be charged for the calls by the minute;
• you often find it’s best to agree in advance a time to call the other person, by email, so with a PC-to-PC so that you ensure you catch each other at each others PC;
• the call quality isn’t as good as that of a regular landline or mobile phone.
Many people are happy to put up with these limitations, because the calls are free. So if this set-up suits you, then that’s great.
Cheap international calls
You may, though, decide that you want the flexibility of making calls using a traditional home telephone instead of through your PC with headsets. If so, you could consider signing up with a VoIP provider that allows this.
With this method, you sign up to a paid call plan with a VoIP provider. The VoIP provider will send you an adaptor that allows you to plug the base of your normal handset into your computer or router. This uses VoIP technology to make ‘phone-to-phone’ calls. The only difference is that the calls go through your existing broadband connection - and not through a landline.
It means that you can simply pick up the phone and dial a number, as before. The person you’re calling doesn’t need to have a computer, or broadband. The call quality is so good that the person you’re calling won’t know you’re using VoIP.
How much you pay depends on the call plan you choose. You can choose one that includes just a few European countries, for example, or the US and Canada, or one that covers many more countries around the world. Whatever you go for, the monthly cost will be capped. As long as you call only the countries listed in your call plan, you’ll pay exactly the same subscription, each and every month, for unlimited, anytime calls. No unpleasant bills!
So, if you’re looking to make cheap international calls, it’s simply a matter of working out which suits you best. Then free or cheap calls are yours to enjoy.
Costas Kariolis - Online Marketing Manager of Vonage UK. Vonage are leading low rate VoIP providers for home & small business users. Offering cheap phone calls and free international calls to landlines via an internet phone service for a set monthly fee.

Review: Gateway P-7808u FX gaming notebook
The relatively new Gateway 7808u FX Edition is the first model in the company’s P series of gaming notebooks to have a quad-core processor. This series gets a new model number each generation so the 7808u may seem like an all-new laptop, but it’s incredibly similar to two systems that we previously covered here on Geek.com, the P-7811 and P-171, as well as two newer models, the P-7809u FX and P-7805u FX.
The chassis, exterior, interior, keyboard, trackpad, display, and sound are all just about the same as previous models, so for the bulk of your reading check back to the previous two articles. If you want the short version here goes: everything is solid. Don’t expect the best-in-class for a system at this price, but Gateway doesn’t skimp. The keyboard and trackpad are acceptable, the display can be finicky if you are playing a game with a lot of dark tones (like Fallout 3) but it’s quite workable, and the build quality, despite featuring a lot of plastic, is fine. The system does generate quite a bit of heat but it is all sent out through a vent on the left side, so it doesn’t heat up the computer itself much. It’s not built for traveling, but in my time with the 7808u and the previous models in the series I haven’t had any serious mechanical problems.
There are two things that potential buyers should keep in mind about the build. The first is that the design is quickly becoming outdated (if it already isn’t). It’s been around for a few generations and it’s about time for a refresh (Gateway, come on, check out the Alienware M17x! Sure it’s more expensive, but let’s move things along…). There is nothing particularly wrong with it and Gateway is using the same design in the next generation (P-7809u FX, P-7807u FX, and P-7805u FX) but it’s about due for a refresh. Secondly, the 17-inch display runs at 1440×900 which isn’t terrible, but it would be nice to see it at 1920×1200. There is no Blu-ray option, but as soon as there is one you can bet there will be a 1920×1200 display.
The big change with the 7808u is that this is the first system in the lineup to go with a quad-core processor. This is the first significant change to the FX series in some time, as previous updates have generally just seen small changes to the processor or graphics. Combine that Core 2 Duo Q9000 with 4GB of RAM, GeForce 9800M GTS graphics (with 1GB of memory), and a 500GB 5400RPM disk and the system is more than powerful enough for today’s games, but on the same note it doesn’t reflect as stellar a deal as previous models. The price is up to $1799 (thanks to that quad-core processor) but don’t worry, deal hunters still have the option of the Gateway P-7809u FX at $1249 (and the same graphics).

Free Firefox plugin allows torrents hidden inside PNG image files
A website called Hid.im posted a Firefox plugin that makes sending torrents to people a simple matter of accessing an image, right-clicking and choosing “Save Torrent As…”. The Hidim Firefox plugin uses the open-source portable network graphics (PNG) file format to encode it data through an image which appears like this:
This JPG image displays graphically what three separate PNG files would look like, as they were created on Hid.im to demonstrate the image. These files are (top) sameer verma - olpc photo dvd.torrent, (middle) legaltorrents collections - web development icons superset.torrent and (bottom) politics apocalypse - oppressed by the authorities remix sources.torrent. They will not work with the Firefox plugin. Visit the Hid.im site to right-click on the original PNG images there on the front page to test the application.
Internally within the 2 pixel tall PNG file the data is arranged in reverse vertical columns, proceeding from left to right as in the following layout:
The torrent data is stored in place of what would otherwise be valid 24-bit red,green,blue (RGB) pixel values, which is what the internal PNG file format uses to determine each pixel’s color value. By having a value from 0-255 each for red, green and blue, a single pixel’s color within an image can be determined. In the Hid.im implementation, the RGB color data is replaced with bytes from the torrent data, thereby making the image appear like static or snow on the screen, while actually conveying real data underneath.
In order for the plugin to determine whether or not a particular PNG file is an actual Hid.im image, and not just one which looks like it, it looks for this embedded sequence of characters, which appears at the beginning of the file: [104, 105, 100, 105, 109, 32, 105, 115, 32, 116, 111, 114, 114, 101, 110, 116, 115, 33]. These characters correspond to the following ASCII sequence: “hidim is torrents!” (in lower-case).
If that character sequence is found, then the following data within the PNG file is used to extract a torrent, which according to the website’s example, appears in the following format, with each section separated by colons:
- Line length (bencoded integer)
- Filename (bencoded string)
- sha1 hash of the .torrent file (bencoded string)
- data (bencoded string)
The bencode (pronounced Bee-encode) structure is the encoding format used for P2P BitTorrent applications, and is native to their internal structure. Bencoding supports integers, strings, lists and dictionaries (which are a list of associative arrays). There is some sample source code on the Hid.im website showing how the Bookmarklet (the encoded torrent data file) can be converted, and saved to disk.
Right now the application is open source. It’s limited in size to a 250KB PNG file, but is governed by the extremely loose MIT License, which would allow for greater length PNG files to be created quite easily. The MIT License states:
Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the “Software”), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions:
The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM, OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE SOFTWARE.
The extremely free nature of the MIT License was chosen because the application’s creator, Michael Nutt, desires it to be made into a wide web standard. Right now there is only the Firefox/Safari plugin, but he hopes that since it is open source with such a free license structure, it won’t be long until other browsers are supported.
Windows 7 day one pre-orders in UK outpace total Vista pre-orders
US and Canadian customers were recently able to buy upgrade versions of Windows 7 via a pre-order discount. That policy has changed and pre-order customers must now pay full price. Still, that has not kept UK consumers from buying Windows 7 on pre-order at record pace.
According to BBC News, Amazon reported Windows 7 sales in the first day (eight hours of sales) surpassed the entire 17 week pre-order sales period for Windows Vista. UK residents are currently paying £50 pounds for the home version, and £100 for the professional version (both of which are full versions), which is notably less than the US buyers will pay today on Microsoft’s website at $199.99 and $299.99, respectively.
The analyst company IDC is predicting 177 million copies will be sold by the end of 2010, with 50 million of those being sold exclusively in Europe. That would translate to revenue in all areas related to Windows 7 software and services around the $320 billion mark.
The recent $1.3 billion fine and EU antitrust ruling against Microsoft means UK buyers will not be receiving a native install of Internet Explorer. It will have to be installed separately.

ABSOLUT VODKA launches iPhone application
The application also comes with a social component because once you find a recipe you like you can then recommend it. That recommendation can be based on spirit, taste, weather, time of day, bar vibe, sound volume and real-time drink trends. The application also has GPS capabilities which allows users to share status updates through Facebook and Twitter that includes not only a real-time drink choice, but the user’s location as well.
Another feature of the mobile application is that it gathers information of the international nightlife scene and makes that accessible to users. There is a world section where people can see what drinks are being ordered in real-time according to global location.Circuit Strike.One v1.1 update: Still brutal, only smoother
We enjoyed quite a lot playing this brutal Neuromancer-styled iPhone shooter spiced up with inertia-based physics and zero-gravity battlefield. The game puts you in control of a ship inside a computer network, going head-to-head against a sysadmin who sends out turrets, drones, ships, trace routes, and intelligent AI after you. As noted in my review and preview of the game, problems with the frame rate and a too steep learning curve somewhat spoiled this otherwise perfectly fine shooter. Although the 1.0 version did maintain comfortable enough frame rate most of the time, there was a noticeable lag during complex rendering, like when you destroyed the data core.
Although this might pass unnoticed in other shooters, Circuit Strike.One’s fast-paced, brutal concept means that even a brief lag breaks your concentration, quite possibly leading to the loss of life. Simply put, eye-candy pushed the iPhone over its limits, resulting in lag above our comfortable level. H.Grenade, the U.S.-based developer behind the game, has updated the graphics engine and the game code to fix these issues. Having played the 1.1 version on my iPhone 3G, I noticed that the lag is mostly gone now, resulting in more enjoyable gaming experience.
The 1.1 update fixed issues with the frame rate - no more unexpected lags in the heat of the battle.
