Source favicon21:02 Spice up your schedule with the Google Calendar gallery » Official Google Blog


Don't you think that calendars should be more than lists of appointments and meetings? Well, we think an online calendar should be filled with what interests you most, which is why we just unveiled the Google Calendar gallery. Those of you with Google accounts and your friends (who might not have one) can create, share and save your favorite upcoming events directly in Google Calendar. Now you can find all sorts of interesting schedules to add to yours, like these:
Atlantic Records - See your favorite musical artist's concert schedules.
Cordless Records - Find out where the latest independent artists are playing.
TLC - Keep up to date on new shows on the TLC Channel.
Disney - Plan your family vacation around special events at Disneyland.
Eventful - Track fun events in your local area.
Jambase - Know which live music acts are coming to your area.
NBA - Follow your favorite basketball team, and never miss a game.
Netflix - Find out when your favorite new movies are available on DVD.
Orbitz Deals - See special travel deals next to your personal calendar.
Wcities - Learn about cool happenings in cities across North America.
Zvents - Gather ideas for things to do this weekend.



The new Google Calendar gallery makes it easy to fill your days with events that you care about and don't want to forget. So take a look around and see if there's something that interests you. Maybe you can even find a perfect excuse to duck out of the office a bit early on Friday. We won't tell!
Source favicon19:56 站点被黑,Dreamhost 还需要提高安全 » DBA notes

刚才发现站点被"黑"了,问题倒似乎不大,默认页面被做了手脚。

最近 Dreamhost 据说有 3500 多用户被黑(英文报道)。

出现这么大范围的安全问题,再推托责任可就说不过去了。最然我 Dreamhost 账户上还有 $120,也不打算用了,准备换个虚拟主机提供商。

看来是新的漏洞,页面直接被冲掉,首页内迁了一点内容转向一个垃圾站: hxxp://m-gallery.org/images/111/index.php 我对URL做了处理,访问的时候要小心!!!

Updated : Dreamhost 的官方通告

Updated2 : 基本思路,遍历各目录下 index.* 文件,传入恶意代码。权限应该是通过破解抓取 FTP 账户得到。Dreamhost 有些时候对用户的密码是明文发送的,必须刚修改密码后,就是明文显示在页面上。电子邮件也是明文发送密码,初步判断被人获取了相关 Log ,抓到了大量用户的密码。

Source favicon06:35 Feeds on a plane! » Official Google Blog


With last week's launch of Google Gears, we're happy to let you know that Google Reader is the first Google web application made for online and offline viewing. If you're not familiar with Google Reader, it's a feed reader for getting updates from your favorite blogs and news sites.

Now, you can read these updates whether you're on or offline. It's easy to read today's financial news from the New York Times on the train, or catch up on your favorite blog while on a plane 35,000 ft. above the Atlantic.

Once you've installed Google Gears, you can download your latest 2,000 items so they're available even when you don't have an Internet connection.



To get started, simply click the "Offline" link in the top right of Google Reader.

Please note, though, that the current version of Google Gears is a developer release, which means you may notice a few kinks here and there. We'll be working hard to iron those out over the coming months, and as always, we welcome your feedback and suggestions as we look to make Google Reader better every day.
Source favicon04:50 What U.S. immigration policies mean to Google » Official Google Blog


Our experience with American immigration policy dates back to one of our founders: when he was six, Sergey Brin's parents fled the Soviet Union in 1979 and settled in the United States. Today, there are literally hundreds of examples of immigrants and non-immigrant foreign workers playing a vital role in our company.

In particular, employees who are holders of H-1B visas -- which allow foreign-born workers with specialized skills to work in the U.S. on a temporary basis -- have helped lead the development of Google News and orkut. Immigrants from countries like Canada, Iran, and Switzerland now lead our business operations, global marketing, global business development, and data infrastructure operations. Without these talented employees and many others, Google would not be where it is today.

As Congress grapples with various immigration reform proposals, Laszlo Bock, our Vice President of People Operations, testified today before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration about the practical impact that the U.S. immigration system has on Google. (Laszlo's mother Susan, who fled Communist Romania when Laszlo was a child, was there too. She was welcomed by Rep. Zoe Lofgren, the chair of the committee, and she received an ovation from everyone present at the hearing.)

In his testimony, Laszlo said that, due to limits on the number of H-1B visas, Google is regularly unable to pursue highly qualified candidates. This year, an estimated 133,000 visa applications were filed by H-1B candidates in the first two days of the filing period for only 65,000 available spots. Over the last year alone, the artificially low cap on H-1B visas has prevented more than 70 Google candidates from receiving H-1B visas. Therefore, Laszlo said, "We would encourage Congress to significantly increase the annual cap of 65,000 H-1B visas, to a figure more reflective of the growth rate of our technology-driven economy." He also urged Congress to address the backlog of employment-based green cards for highly skilled workers.

Check out the full text of Laszlo's testimony or watch the video of his opening remarks to the committee below.

Source favicon01:05 IT 记者也不能胡说 » DBA notes
看到刊载在某杂志的雄文一篇:谁陷害了微软们?,其中有这样一段话:
但Google所考虑的问题是:搜索引擎的竞争最终将集中在哪里?在绝大多数公司将搜索引擎视为算法问题时,Google找到了另一个答案:这是一个硬件问题。也就是说,存储整个互联网的成本和能力,决定着搜索引擎公司的长期竞争力。只有能够自己生产、架设服务器矩阵的能力,及大规模存储、发布的技术,其搜索能力才会得到效用的最大化。于是,从其早年起,Google就大量招募硬件人才,并成为了全球每年服务器产量最大的公司。这让它有能力以更低成本存储比微软、雅虎们更多的网络页面,并更快地将它们变成搜索结果。

我不知道黑色部分是作者怎么得出来的结论。

Google 原来是生产服务器的,我还是第一次听说

00:15 全球15个顶级技术类博客月光博客 » Che, Dong's shared items in Google Reader

  中文翻译:IT168网

  英文原文:Top 15 geek blog sites

  在互联网世界当中,博客网站的种类是多种多样的。它们中的一些旨在教导、帮助人们交流协作、激发灵感,并拓展我们的思维空间。而另一些博客则侧重于激发我们的情感,让我们感到愤怒,或是让我们开怀大笑。《电脑世界(Computerworld)》网站的编辑们这些优秀博客网站搜集整理在了一起,为我们提供了一份最受他们所钟爱的博客网站的列表。最后,我们根据这些博客自身的信息广度、新闻价值、网站设计、更新频率以及娱乐价值,将这份50多位候选人的大名单做了进一步的缩减,最终得到了这份15个世界最顶级的技术类博客网站排行榜。

  不错,这份排名的确包含了很大的主观成分,但是我们认为它是有史以来发表过的此类博客网站的最棒的排行榜之一。这份名单所涵盖的范围非常广泛:从严肃的技术性新闻,到对电脑游戏测评和评论,再到新潮消费者电子产品介绍。我们同时也在本份名单的最后增加了一些“荣誉提名”,因为这次排名的竞争是如此的激烈,让我们感到很难取舍。

  当然了,肯定不会是每一个人都赞同我们的观点。如果你认为有某个博客网站非常的优秀,而又没有出现在我们的“前15名排行榜“中的话,请在本文后面的评论当中留言与我们分享。

  IT工具箱博客(IT Toolbox Blogs)有着一大群“战斗在第一线”的IT专家们讨论有关于技术和IT管理的话题。它拥有一系列专业性的博客在处理跟IT安全、数据库、项目管理和其它等等相关的问题。这是一个包罗万象的网站。

  3) 硅谷闲话(Valleywag)

  http://valleywag.com

  “众口铄金,积毁销骨”。硅谷闲话(Valleywag)是专门为那些相信“在技术行业中的生死在很大程度上都取决于硅谷周围所传播的闲话”的人准备的。对于那些热衷于制造、听闻和传播硅谷谣言的那些人来说,这个网站凭借着其卓越的“专业素养”而让人大为惊叹。

  4) Kotaku

  http://kotaku.com

  Kotaku是电脑游戏爱好者的“加油站”。它拥有跟电脑游戏有关的一切,从对游戏的测评,到相关的讨论和扯淡,再到作弊技巧。这里有你所需要的一切,比如某款游戏到哪里去购买,以及怎样进行玩耍。

  5) 威胁空间(Danger Room)

  http://blog.wired.com/defense

  6) 小发明(Gizmodo)

  http://gizmodo.com

  小发明(Gizmodo)网站专门为读者挖掘全世界最新、最酷、或是最稀奇古怪的技术发明——从高清晰电视、到咖啡机、到弹力腰带,再到USB驱动器。是的,他们同样也发布那些严肃的技术性新闻。

  7) O'Reilly 雷达(O'Reilly Radar)

  http://radar.oreilly.com

  这是你能够阅读到Tim O'Reilly(著名的O'Reilly出版公司的创始人)和其它人讨论有关于网络、编程、开放源代码运动、知识产权、政策、Web 2.0和其它前沿科技的地方。

  8) 技术丑闻(Techdirt)

  http://www.techdirt.com

  技术丑闻(Techdirt)是一个话题中心,以在当前的互联网和电脑领域的热门事件上引发激烈争论而闻名。流言蜚语是它的所爱!简洁是它的特点!

  9) Groklaw

  http://www.groklaw.net

  Groklaw网站的原本存在目的是支持SCO公司对IBM和Novell公司所发起的漫长的专利侵权诉讼,但是不知道什么时候,这里的讨论转向了其它方面,话题包括了技术、知识产权以及政府法规。

  10) 改造一整天(Hack a Day)

  http://www.hackaday.com

  想要学习怎样为一个廉价的Linux路由器添加一个USB设备吗?想要制作一个蛇形机器人吗?或是将自己的XBox 360游戏机改造成一台笔记本?“改造一整天(Hack a Day)”上提供了这些地下室项目,以及其它更多有趣的项目。这个网站是为那些真正有一定技术素养,喜欢自己动手改造技术产品的玩家所准备的。但与此同时,你也可以在这里发现很多乐趣,说不定还会从中开发出一项新的爱好。

  11)小玩意儿(Engadget)

  http://www.engadget.com

  就像可口可乐和百事可乐的关系一样,小玩意儿(Engadget)和小发明(Gizmodo)就像是一对孪生兄弟。它也是专注于技术产品相关的介绍、评论,有时候也会有充满激情的演讲和辩论。小玩意儿(Engadget)上充满了摄制精美的产品图片,而它网站的编辑们还有着广泛的内部渠道,可以在新潮的技术产品还处于先期或早期发布阶段,就可以一睹它们的芳容。同样的,小玩意儿(Engadget)上面也会刊登一些真正非常有趣的手工制作的玩意儿。但是,我们更喜欢小发明(Gizmodo)一点。

  12) Feedster

  www.feedster.com/feedpapers/Technology

  一切都是那么的水到渠成。这个网站汇集了各种各样的博客站点,包括技术类、体育类、名人八卦、美食、个人体验等等等等——只要你能想到的,它都拥有。同时,它还提高了卓越的站内搜索功能,以及一个非常酷的RSS新闻阅读软件。它在技术新闻里面加入了非常出色的幽默感。这真是一个各方面都很优秀的网站。

  13) 永远的骇客(Forever Geek)

  永远的骇客(Forever Geek)是一个非常棒的网站,它有无数的博客文章,覆盖了多种多样的话题,从技术,到大众新闻,到好莱坞电影,再到电脑游戏测评。这绝对是一个骇客的天堂。假如你想要了解即将上映的好莱坞巨片《变形金刚》的最新消息,或是阅读一篇有关于Photoshop CS3软件的测评,这就是你应该去的地方。

  作为一个为那些喜爱数码产品和电脑游戏的骇客们所专门打造的站点,这个网站同样也提供最新的有关于政治和名人的新闻。这种娱乐价值和技术新闻的战略组合,让自助餐(Smorgasbord)跻身于最优秀者的行列。

  荣誉提名:

  1) 苹果(Apple)非官方博客 (TUAW)

  www.tuaw.com

  TUAW集结了许多独立的博客——这些独立的博客虽然和苹果公司官方没有正式的关系,但是这并不意味着他们的信息不充分、意见没有影响力。这是一个了解苹果公司相关新闻的最好来源。它没有跻身前15名的唯一原因是它太过于专注于一个单一话题。

  2) Elliot Back 的博客(Elliot Back's blog)

  http://elliottback.com/wp

  作为自封的“计算机科学家”,Elliot对于每一件自己所关注的事情大放厥词,从为什么XML标准很糟,到泰坦尼克号的旅客名单,再到对好莱坞巨片《斯巴达300勇士》的影评。这个网站的内容多种多样,但是安排巧妙。此外,他还会提供一些非常棒的小贴士,比如如何增进系统的性能,以及屏蔽垃圾邮件。

  3) Ed Foster 的牢骚录(Ed Foster's Gripelog)

  www.gripe2ed.com/scoop

  时下有一类新的博客网站涌现了出来,它们专门抨击和曝光那些侵害消费者权益的公司和产品,诸如数码产品恶劣的售后服务、粗糙的产品外观或是其他诸如此类的一些问题,但是Ed Foster可谓是这一行的开山鼻祖。看看他最新所关注的一些话题:有缺陷的DRM系统、plasma品牌电视机的质保陷阱,以及糟糕的移动电话服务质量。

  4) Gadgetell

  www.gadgetell.com

  假如你想要了解最新的数码产品、电玩游戏新闻,以及其他相关的一些消息,这是一个很棒的网站。

  5) 4sysops
