Well, I’m almost tired off with SPAM comments. I’m using Akismat but still getting tons of SPAM under my blog. So, I’ve been looking around the best Captcha which will be integrated with my blog site and for each comments — commentator have to input the Captcha otherwise, you can not make any comments.

ReCaptcha, one of the best SPAM protecting service and they have wordpress plugins too. As well, in normal websites by following the documentation, user can integrate recaptcha with blogs, websites or anywhere else where they spammer attacking actually.

reCAPTCHA is a free, accessible CAPTCHA service that helps to digitize books while blocking spam on your blog.

reCAPTCHA asks commenters to retype two words scanned from a book to prove that they are a human. This verifies that they are not a spambot while also correcting the automatic scans of old books. So you get less spam, and the world gets accurately digitized books. Everybody wins!

To open an account requres Gmail email address, just login and give your website address and get public API and private API key. Also, I’ve checked tons of features enabled with ReCaptcha.

GrameenPhone, that companies Internet service I’m using. They providing unlimited packages through recently they included new terms. The will keep the service unlimited until 5 GB but after that they will limit the speed — not the bandwidth. So, what actually I’m looking for to measure how much bandwidth I really need and I’m using per month too. To getting a Windows supportable Internet Bandwidth Manager is available but possible you will get some free virus too.

“Knowing how many gigabytes a month you’re using can be important if you have a metered internet connection, or your ISP measures your bandwidth and charges you if you go over. I know many Universities in the US have implemented bandwidth-overage charges (which students decry as unfair and stifling) to help combat bittorrent P2P filesharing, which will sap even a wide broadband connection. So, whatever your reason, you may want to see what applications are using bandwidth on your PC. The following instructions are for Windows XP / Vista.” — Elliot resolved the problems.

NetLimiter 2 Monitor, this software can resolve your problem. They have both freeware and paid version, just choose the NetLimiter 2 Pro is the best version and combined two features Bandwidth Manager + Net Speed; it will show the graph, how much you’re using per day, weekly, monthly basis and real time updates also visible in your screen.  You will get 28 days trail but little bit tricks can make it free and enjoy the service. Also, you can track the hidden updates, download in your speed. Each the process taking need speed and you can handle every process. As well, you can stop any functions — if that’s not important for you or not required.

An experimental solar-powered plane landed safely yesterday after completing its first 24-hour test flight, proving that the aircraft can collect enough energy from the sun during the day to stay aloft all night. Pilot Andre Borschberg eased the Solar Impulse onto the runway at an airfield southwest of the Swiss capital Bern.

Helpers rushed to stabilize the pioneering plane as it touched down, ensuring that its massive 207-foot wingspan didn’t scrape the ground and topple the craft. The record feat completes seven years of planning and brings the Swiss-led project one step closer to its goal of circling the globe using only energy from the sun.

It’s a good day for the Gmail users. After a long time, tons of requests, tons of expectation, tons of twicks and tricks are now behind and Gmail has now built-in Rich Text Signatures options. In previously, with each of your emails, only you’re allowed to send text signatures and now you’re allowed to engage rich text which is more user friendly, attractive and better way to present your signature after the each mails.

“The next time you log in and visit the Settings page, you’ll see a rich text editor in the signature section. Here, you can customize your signature by adding pretty formatting, links, and images — or decide to leave things nice and simple.” – Gmails says

You’re allowed to enable unique signatures. “Gmail also now supports a unique signature for each email address associated with your account. So, if you send mail using a custom “From:” address, you can use a different signature for that address. From the Settings page, you can edit the signature for each account by changing the email address that appears in the dropdown menu.” — Gmails says.

Introduction

You started blogging and you have Domain and have limited storage or hosting space, limited Bandwidth and as well limited MySQL. In previous post, I shared how to use single MySQL Database to creating Multiple blog sites. When the matter is limited storage and bandwidth — still there is a trick and you can run some codes and save our limited storage and bandwidth as much as possible.

How It Works

The scripts mainly taking information from your created, example.wordpress.com blogs and when you will write on your wordpress.com blog, the similar things you will find to your own Domain. That means, you will use WordPress.com’s to Storage your photos, contents and so on things and automatically the same things will be visible to your Domain. You saving your Storage and Bandwidth and as well you need to use only one MySQL Database for such actions

Code is Poem

Firstly, find the index.php files and paste those code

<?php
$dataurl =$primaryurl = "http://googlememe.wordpress.com";//old domain
$secondaryurl = "http://googlememe.com"; //new domain
$path =array_keys($_GET);
if(!empty($path[0])) $dataurl = "{$primaryurl}/{$path[0]}";
$data = file_get_contents($dataurl);
$pattern = "~{$primaryurl}/([\d\S\/]+)~";
$data = preg_replace($pattern,"{$secondaryurl}/$1",$data);
$data = str_replace(array("<a href=\"{$primaryurl}","<form action=\"{$secondaryurl}"),array("<a href=\"{$secondaryurl}","<form action=\"{$primaryurl}"),$data);
echo $data;
?>

Secondly, find the .htaccess and paste those code

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.+)
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1&%{QUERY_STRING}

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|images|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1

Note:

Before to paste, change the url and take backup of your files.

SEO Matters, Double Contents (Google penalty)

Yes, I’m also think about it. No worries, disable Google Crawling function from your wordpress.com and then Google will find only your domain not example.wordpress.com

Anything Else

Let’s comments and share your experiences.

I’m using Office 2007 and using lots of shortcuts and using less mouse it’s better to use Keyboard shortcuts. To saving a lot time “shortcut” is the only options and WordPress WYSIWIG Editor has shortcut and most of the user don’t know about it. You can make your words Bold, Italic, Underline and press ctrl+s — instantly it will save your contents as draft. Don’t you think it’s productive and saving your a lot time and even you don’t need to worry to lost your data. Simple and easy to use.

From the Profile page, give a Tick Mark in-front of “Enable keyboard shortcuts for comment moderation. More information“. You have done and now you’re ready to use shortcuts.

For the limited MySQL Database allowance or usages or 10-15 database allowed to create — this a great limitation. And sometimes it’s really important to create separate MySQL database for each blogs or projects. But, in WordPress it’s not a problem — user can use Single Database and Install multiple Blogs under a MySQL Database.

A simple tricks can handle or enable this functions — when you are  in config.php, don’t change anything just find $table_prefix and you will see by default it has ‘wp_’ . You can give another name such as

$table_prefix = 'wp_'; // example: 'wp2_' or 'b2' or 'mylogin_' or 'wp2'.

You don’t need to change the DB_NAME, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD for multiple installations.A little confusion may arise when multiple installation has done – better give for blogs ‘myblogs_’, for projects ‘projects1_’ or for ‘corporate1_’. It’s simple and easy to install multiple blogs.

Internet titan Google plunged into the online travel market, buying ITA Software, a flight information software company, for USD 700 million in cash.

Google’s purchase of the Massachusetts-based ITA on Thursday raises prospects of a battle over the lucrative sector between the Web search giant and Expedia, Kayak, Orbitz, Microsoft’s Bing Travel and other sites.

Google said its acquisition of ITA, which was founded in 1996 by a team of computer scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, “will create a new, easier way for users to find better flight information online.”

“The acquisition will benefit passengers, airlines and online travel agencies by making it easier for users to comparison shop for flights and airfares,” the Mountain View, California-based company said in a statement.

“Airline travel and search are a terrific opportunity for more innovation, more investment and more interesting products,” Google chief executive Eric Schmidt said in a conference call. “There’s clearly more room for competition and innovation here.”

TO understanding your competitor the steps of your competitors it’s important when you’re on business. So, I’m also trying to figure out some ways to track each and evey changes of my competitors. Yes, normally I can use RSS feed or Feedity RSS feed, — whatever it’s the applications. Let’s try another one.

Page
Monitor is a an excellent tool if you would like to track your competitors
website for any UI changes the webmaster makes. You can secretly spy on it
without anybody knowing about it. I tried it on my website and it tracked the
changes when I approved a comment which is displayed on my side bar. And to mu
surprise it also showed me what was gone. As I show latest 10 comments, the one
which was gone was also tracked. 

Page Monitored Changes tracked

This is a Chrome Addon and can be used to track any website with a single
click and also you can configure the duration after which the site has to
be checked again which can be different for every site.

Finally, business-oriented social networking site LinkedIn is staying true to its monicker. LinkedIn  has just rolled out a much delayed feature that lets you easily follow company profiles on LinkedIn. In case you’re more of a Facebook user, you’d know that this is somewhat similar to the “become a fan” feature, which incidentally was changed to “like.”

Rationalizing the roll-out of this feature, the LinkedIn official blog states that this will help LinkedIn memeber to stay in the loop on new developments, potential business opportunities or even job opportunities by simply following a company.  Following a company, just like following a brand profile in Facebook also lets you get the first hand information about developments at companies you follow.

So, how do you follow a company on LinkedIn. There are various ways to do so. First, you can click through any of the companies listed on your LinkedIn contacts’ profiles. Once you find a company that interest you, you simply mouse-over on that company and the “Follow Company” icon will appear on a hover bar.

You can also follow a company right on the company’s profile whenever you chanced upon them as you search on LinkedIn. To easily find a company profile, you can check out the “more” drop-down list from LinkedIn’s homepage.

Now here’s the interesting part. LinkedIn also allows you to choose the volume of updates that you want to receive from various companies you follow. You can select the type, frequency and format of updates as well.

Like the features so far? So, what are you waiting for? Start following those companies now and wait for the fruits of what you are about to do, hopefully the soonest time possible.
