Cara Menghentikan Spam TinyURL Facebook...






Jika Anda melihat banyak kependekan URL mewarnai Facebook, berhati-hatilah. Ini spam yang marak di akun masyarakat.


Tiny URL merupakan cloaking URL atau fasilitas memperpendek URL pengguna. Keuntungannya, masyarakat bisa menyingkat nama web menjadi lebih pendek dan menyembunyikan nama asli dari situs yang kita ingin publikasikan. Beberapa pihak menganggap ini menjadi bagian dari bisnis di internet yang disebut affiliate marketing.


Sayangnya, beberapa pengguna internet mengaku terganggu dengan kehadiran spam Facebook berupa Tiny URL. Beberapa di antaranya http:tinyurl.com/xxxxxxxxxx.


Lihat saja ada akun Facebook milik seorang anak SD yang tiba-tiba memuat status terbaru yang jorok dan tidak sesuai dengan usianya. “SAYA MAHO, SIAPA YANG MAU AKU ISAP ♥. Cape nih c*l* sendirianliat aja nih vidio ku http://bit.ly/XXXXX”. Padahal pemilik akun itu jelas tidak menuliskan status seperti itu. Jelas saja spam semacam ini sangat mengganggu pemilik akun.


Pengamat teknologi Budi Raharjo menegaskan kepada masyarakat bahwa fenomena ini cukup berbahaya. Karenanya, jangan mengakses URL itu meskipun disertai kalimat yang menarik.


“Banyak tipe dari jenis spam ini. Biasanya, orang yang klik akan secara otomatis kalimat di status teman mereka dan pengguna akun itu kadang tidak menyadarinya. Yang bahaya, jika URL itu terhubung dengan situs porno atau permohonan ganti kata kunci palsu,” ujar Budi Raharjo.


Bentuk penipuan via perpendekan URL ini adalah munculnya situs yang seolah Facebook dan meminta pengguna mengganti kata kunci atau mencantumkan alamat email. Selanjutnya, penyebar spam itu akan mencuri kata kunci atau mencoba mengakses email pengguna.


“Inilah bahayanya. Kadang, banyak masyarakat yang menyimpan data penting di email. Kalau password dicuri, kita yang rugi sendiri. Cara terbaik untuk menghentikannya adalah Anda perlu log out dari Facebook dan mengganti password Facebook,” tegas Budi.


Selain itu, agar tidak tertipu, pengguna dapat klik ‘Preview Feature’ di sebelah kiri lalu mengakses tulisan ‘click here to enable previews’. Inilah cara untuk melihat link yang disembunyikan oleh Tiny URL. (Inilah)

15 Job Interview Horror Stories...



We’ve all been there: the dreaded job interview. As unnerving and stressful as they are it’s to be expected that mishaps are bound to take place. Here is a list of the 15 worst job interview calamities that will leave yours in the dust. Next time you bomb an interview, feel free to check this list out; it’ll be certain to brighten your day and make you feel a bit better!


1. You’re Related To Who?

It’s never a good idea to badmouth your old boss, no matter how much you disliked him or how intensely you feel that she should have been the subordinate, not you. This applicant spent the length of their interview bellyaching about their former boss totally unaware of their interviewer’s relation to their aforementioned boss. They even had the same last name!



2. Zzz…

Remember back to your younger days in school where they stressed the importance of a good night’s rest before a big test like the SAT? Well the same goes for job interviews. It looks like this applicant failed to heed the advice of his tenth grade English teacher when he dozed off right in the middle of his interview!


3. A Day When Everything Goes Wrong

We’ve all had those days when you wake up and you just know it’s going to be a bad day, days where everything seems to go terribly wrong and you realize you should have just stayed in bed. At least that’s the realization this particular interviewee came to after an interview at an advertising company went completely awry.

Stressed out and in a hurry due to the process of pawning off his 5-year-old niece to an ex-girlfriend this unfortunate interviewee forgot to put on his suspenders and grabbed his prescription sunglasses instead of his regular pair. Needless to say once he discovered he had the wrong pair of glasses he figured it would be better to go through the interview blind than rudely in sunglasses.

When standing up to shake the interviewer’s hand he found himself standing in the middle of the agency’s office with his pants around his ankles!

As if that’s not horrific enough it only gets worse when on behalf of his hindered eyesight when asked to supply his resume he hands over a resume to a competing agency and was asked to leave.



4. Hello, Doctor?

Employers want to see that their perspective employees are independent thinkers who are capable of making their own decisions. This woman displayed just the opposite of what her interviewer hoped to find when she brought the interview to a halt in order to dial her therapist for guidance on how to answer a question!


5. What Did You Say?

We’ve all said things we wish we could go back in time and erase. This candidate was caught with his foot in his mouth when he made a wisecrack about West Virginia only to discover that his most likely now agitated interviewer hailed from West Virginia.



6. That Was YOU?!

Always think twice before you do anything rash. When in a state of rage try your hardest not to let your emotions get the best of you, you may never know just who exactly you are ripping into. This woman sure didn’t when she flipped off, honked, and shouted obscenities to the driver of another vehicle prior to finding that same driver conducting the interview for her desired position.


7. What Are Your Qualifications?

Don’t make the mistake of being too full of yourself. Although you do want to portray a certain amount of confidence this applicant took it too far when he declared that he was so adept for the job that if he happened to be denied the position it would ultimately confirm the company’s management to be insufficient!



8. Sore Loser

This interviewee refused to leave his chair unless he was given the position. Eventually police were called in to the scene to remove the applicant.


9. Did I Get The Job?

Sometimes you have to wonder what in the world are some of these people thinking? Are they trying to sabotage the interview? This man clearly was when he stated that he didn’t actually want the position, he only needed to validate he was job searching for the unemployment office!



10. Dress Down Friday

Although there is much more slack in dress codes nowadays you would assume its common knowledge that one must dress professionally when attending a job interview. Apparently not. This applicant showed up to an interview in her robe and slippers!


11. All For Nothing

Nothing’s worse than going to hell and back for a job interview only be denied the position. This particular applicant drove 30 minutes to a 7:30am interview, could not find the arranged parking lot forcing her to leave her car in a private lot, and waited 20 minutes for her interviewer to only find the position had been offered to another applicant two days ago. After all this the only thing the applicant had to show for her troubles was a parking stub.



12. Make Yourself At Home

Most people would agree that on a job interview they tend to feel a bit uptight and constrained however this woman showed no signs of tension as she proceeded to make her self at home by removing her socks and placing them on her interviewer’s desk claiming she was “too hot”.


13. The Literalist

When feeling nervous and under pressure its understandable to give one or two silly answers lacking forethought. When asked what person they would most like to meet, living or dead this applicant replied with “the living one”.



14. Spit It Out

It’s probably for the best to spit out that piece of Winterfresh before beginning an interview to keep clear of appearing ill-mannered or to avoid what happened to Yolanda Evans from Project Performance Corporation who had a piece of gum spewed into her face by an anxious interviewee.


15. Don’t Let The Door Hit You On The Way Out

A final impression is just as important as the first. This applicant made a memorable one when he got up to leave the interview and walked into a glass door shattering it to pieces.

LG Optimus Me P350 is a Low-End Android Smartphone...






Mobile World Congress isn't just about highfalutin handsets like the Samsung Galaxy S II. There are also plenty of enticing smart phones that sit slightly further back from the cutting edge, the LG Optimus Me P350 being one of them. The Me is cut from the same cloth as the rather spiffing LG Optimus One P500, and runs Android 2.2 Froyo. We got our hands on one, and below are our first impressions.


We don't have a release date for the Me yet, but LG has stated that it will be its most affordable Android phone in the first half of this year, so it will definitely be cheap.


Put Me in your pocket

At Mobile World Congress, it was difficult to gauge exactly how the Me really feels, because it was tethered to the ground with 50 feet of industrial, thief-defying cable. Still, it felt quite petite in our grasp, and, measuring 58 by 108 by 12mm, it's small enough to snugly squeeze into your pockets without creating a bulge that will put people off their dinner. It weighs 108g, so it should feel very light.


The Me's design isn't exactly ground-breaking, but its rounded edges are easy on the eye. It should arrive in a range of different colours too. One interesting design feature is that the call-answer and hang-up buttons are set into a small plastic bar that sticks out from the front of the phone slightly. It helps to jazz up the front of the phone.


The 2.8-inch display is on the small side and has a low resolution of 320x240 pixels. That's the same resolution as offered by the HTC Wildfire's screen, another miniature, budget Android phone. This is potentially a deal-breaker, as such a low-res screen doesn't show Android at its best. The Me also faces competition from the new version of the Wildfire, the Wildfire S, which offers a higher resolution than the Me on a larger, 3.2-inch screen.


The Me runs Android 2.2 Froyo. Android is Google's mobile operating system, and we think it's rather ace. With Froyo, you'll enjoy a wealth of features, including access to the Android Market app store, and Flash support in the browser. That will make for a rich browsing experience.


Outlook

Despite an uninspiring screen, we're not about to throw the LG Optimus Me P350 on the proverbial scrap heap before we've had a chance to give it a full review. If the Me is substantially cheaper than the Wildfire S, it could be worth considering.
