Hello everyone,

Id like to offer my sincere apology for the lack of posts or any explanation over the past few weeks.

Suffice it to say, that Ive been in hospital for some time but hope to be back full time at Now Public and writing here and for my other web site Premier Software Reviews.

I nearly fell over when I checked my email this morning, only to be met with the pythonic figure of over 8,000 waiting for me.

Of course Id never be able to wade through them all, so I plan to delete them altogether, except for those that catch my eye when I quickly scan them. If you have sent me an email, please resend it and I should be able to get back to you fairly quickly.

Till Monday, please everyone .. have a safe, happy and loving weekend.

P.S. The Bassett puppy isnt mine, mine is a blonde cocker spaniel and much cuter! ;) - [Read more]

On Tuesday, a security advisory was released by Microsoft stating that malicious attackers are targeting versions of its Office Excel with vulnerabilities, not only Windows OS users but also those who use Mac OS.

Included in the affected versions are Microsoft Office Excel 2003 Service Pack 2, Microsoft Office Excel Viewer 2003, Microsoft Office Excel 2002, Microsoft Office Excel 2000, and Microsoft Excel 2004 for Mac.

Microsoft said that Microsoft Office Excel 2007, Microsoft Excel 2008 for Mac, and Microsoft Office Excel 2003 Service Pack 3 do not appear to be vulnerable.

People who open a malicious e-mail attachment or visit a malicious Web site may find that their systems are compromised and that arbitrary remote code is executed. Computers configured to allow the user to have administrative user rights are at greater risk that those with few user rights on the system.

Yahoo announced Thursday that it is supporting the OpenID standard for a universal Internet log-in. Once the new Yahoo ID service is live, people with a Yahoo user name and password will be able to use that ID information to access non-Yahoo Web sites that support the OpenID 2.0 digital identity framework, reducing the amount of different log-in information people need to create, remember and enter online.


Yahoo’s 248 million users worldwide is a huge addition to the current OpenID members which is just around 120 million OpenID accounts so far. OpenID is designed to facilitate single log-ins for multiple unaffiliated Web sites. Gradually, large sites like AOL and Plaxo have begun supporting the standard, but it remains a tool for the Webs early-adopter set rather than the online community at large.

Yahoo launches its OpenID in public beta form on January 30.

Proximic, a new player in the contextual advertising and content-matching arena, announced that it has signed an agreement with Yahoo! Shopping Network and eBays Shopping.com.

Using pattern-matching technology to deliver online ads, this German startup is taking on the giant - Google. Both of Yahoo! and eBays sites will harness Proximics patent-pending pattern matching technology to deliver advertisements over the Net that Proximic says are better suited to the context in which theyre placed than anything Google can equal today.

Proximics method called "Proximity Analysis," is a language-independent approach that automatically reads and matches relevant content according to interconnected "patterns" that are not even based on words but which exist within each document. The approach enables publishers to automatically serve up meaningful content -- articles, ads, products -- without the need for keywords or preset categories. Its similar to querying a search engine with a complete set of 200+ words, and finding the most relevant and similar results to that query.

Have you seen Bruce Willis Die Hard 4.0? Well the plot of the movie is John McClane taking on an Internet-based terrorist organization who is systematically shutting down the United States. If you think that only happens in Hollywood films then think again. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has just confirmed that recent black outs from select cities were caused by hackers.

Criminals have launched online attacks via the Internet that disrupted power equipment in several regions outside of the U.S., CIA analyst Tom Donahue said, without identifying the countries affected. The goal of the attacks was extortion, he said.

Hacking the power grid made front-page headlines in September when CNN aired a video showing an Idaho National Laboratory demonstration of a software attack on the computer system used to control a power generator. In the demonstration, the smoking generator was rendered inoperable.

The U.S. is taking steps to lock down the computers that manage its power systems, however.

Would you buy a domain name worth $750,000? Cable News Network (CNN) is willing to do that.. and they just did.

Rick Schwartz, known as the "Domain King," has just completed the sale of iReport.com to the CNN for $750,000. When asked if he had any similar domains he told CNN he also owned the hyphenated version, i-Report.com. Instead of making another deal, he just gave i-Report.com for free (how generous, hehe).

Schwartz is a domain investor, he makes a living by buying domain names and reselling them to the highest bidder. This is the biggest URL sale for the year 2008 so far. Domain selling can reach up to millions of dollars in bidding, below is a list of the top ten largest sales of 2007 from DNJournal.

1. Porn.com = $9,500,000
2. Computer.com = $2,100,000
3. Seniors.com = $1,800,000
4. Tandberg.com= $1,500,000
5. Scores.com = $1,180,000
6. Vista.com = $1,250,000
7. Chinese.com = €810,001 = $1,120,008
8.tie Guy.com = $1,000,000
8.tie Topix.com = $1,000,000
10. Poker.de €695,000 = $957,937

Rick bought and registered the domains ireport.com and i-report.com way back in 1997.. for how much? $70 -$100.

Web-savvy movie lovers have been buzzing about Cloverfield for months, thanks to a viral marketing strategy-meets-alternate-reality game.

Starting in early July 2007, a mysterious movie trailer began showing in theaters nationwide during screenings of Transformers. The film, which opens today, had no name, but the trailer was stamped with a date of 01-18-08 and said it was produced by J.J. Abrams, of the TV show Lost.

The curious headed online to try to track down information about the film.

Under Abrams filmography on the Web site imdb.com, a clue was discovered — a listing for a project titled Clover, aka the Untitled J.J. Abrams Project, with a synopsis: "a giant monster movie (referred internally as The Parasite) which is shot using home video cameras from the point of view of real people who are experiencing the attack on New York City."

Followers of the movie-to-be debated what the monster could be. Was it the return of Godzilla or Voltron? Leviathan? Or a new monster?

Message boards lit up as clues were discovered, including the Web site 1-18-08.com, which contained a single photo of two women looking up in horror — at what, of course, was the question.

Other Web sites, including www.slusho.jp, raised more questions than they answered. What did this drink, with its "deep-sea ingredient," have to do with the creature that attacked New York, and why was one of the characters in the film wearing a Slusho T-shirt?

By the end of July, MySpace pages of characters in the film were discovered. Amusingly, they were blogging in real-time and have continued to do so up until the films release. On Jan. 4, for instance, the main character Rob Hawkins blogged on his MySpace page (www.myspace.com/robbyhawkins) that hed just been hired as vice president for marketing and promotions for Slusho and was moving to Japan in mid-January. The movie documents the ill-fated night of Robs going-away party on Jan. 18.

Heres a trailer of the movie uploaded on YouTube:
