Using Wp_Super_Cache to make your Wordpress blog to stand high traffic
Yeah, having super high traffic to your blog, running on wordpress but you ain't wanna upgrade to a dedicated server to handle the high traffic. You can consider installing the wordpress' plugin wp_super_cache. Enable the super_cache and compression. It speeds up your blog pages delivery. A frequently accessed blog page will be cached. Whenever the first user has accessed the following accesses will take from the cache, which serves as a static page instead of dynamic.
Furthermore it helps reduce the mysql database query calls, which are major contribution to CPU usage to some shared hosting packages. It makes your blog more digg proof. The WP_Super_cache has now reached its latest version of version 0.7.1 which can be downloaded from wordpress.com

Facebook lets you send virtual Valentine's gift
The virtual gift at FaceBook now is given as free
The gift icons were designed by Susan Kare, who was also the original designer of Mac icons. You can send gifts either privately or publically, which privately shows only the icon and publically shows the name of the giver.
If you happened to have met someone at Facebook, and is getting intimate as your virtual gf or bf, pick up a nice gift icon and send her/him one as the coming Valentine's day gift. But I'm not too sure that you'll be considered stingy due to the gift is free and you then get banned by her/him! Perhaps, in the virtual would there would be another kind of virtual sense of romance! The generated money from the gifts sold in February will be donated to charity for supporting breast cancer, after this the money will be kept by FaceBook, which'll probably contribute some kind of revenue by end of this year!

Phishing not only causes a big loss of to the consumers and also to the company!

Robotic cellphone! A personal ubiquitous companion!
The Cellular Phone Robot or CPR in short has wheels so that it can move. With RFID tags installed all around your house, it will be able to do the above-mentioned for you! Some more it has motors, used to express the emotions for you about the incoming calls. The CPR uses 3 types of senses to respond to you, they are by touch, smell and visual bahavior!
By touch, the CPR vibrates in 3 distinct patterns to evoke your emotional response. The patterns were based on the rhythms of emotional music.
By smell, it has 12 micronozzles to to emit just the right odor to identify the caller. Would it emit smell of rotton egg for undesirable callers? Of course tested biometrically.
By visual, the CPR does a little dance when someone calls. Happy dance. Stalker dance. All biometrically determined.
This is currently one of the research work produced by the engineers at Soochunhyang University in Korea. It has much much greater features than your iPhone.
