Social Media 

August 05, 2010

Social media sites have altered the face of communication. Business communications in particular have become more personal and profitable due to the development of social media.

Social media is a way of communicating on a personal level rather than through advertisements, brochures and newsprint. By using social media, you converse with others and they respond to you. Gone are the days of the big advertising blitz with million-dollar ads on television or in print. Some still use them, but social media sites are getting the word out in a much more personal, effective and economical way.

Facebook. One of the biggest social media sites, Facebook is similar to Twitter but there is no restriction on the character count of the messages. People also comment on messages or pictures posted by others. Also, you can have a page dedicated to your business that will bring particular attention to your products or services by posting information and commenting on communication of others.

Twitter. On Twitter, people communicate with followers using short (140 character)  messages. In those message, they can inform their followers through an announcement, show their followers a picture by sending them to a site containing the picture, send their followers to their website or blog, send their followers to another website or blog, or tweet music.

ning.com. The network of Ning.com has many small social media sites. Each site is dedicated to a particular topic. Individuals who are also interested in one of those topics are able to join a site and converse with like-minded individuals.

MySpace and YouTube are social media sites where people post pictures or videos of themselves or their interests. Many talented people or interesting businesses have been discovered through these sites.

Use of social media sites is very popular for good reason. If used appropriately, social media sites can broaden the customer or client base of most businesses. Through providing the public with interesting, entertaining, or valuable information in their postings, people can attract customers and clients to add to their base. And, for little to no expenditure, these businesses have a way to advertise their products or services and an easy way to let others know when they are offering special discounts or announcing a new product.

When beginning to determine what social media site to use, be careful to not overextend yourself. The one drawback of using social media sites is that they take time and must be updated frequently. If you set up a schedule for yourself, your should be able to get the most from our site.

History Of Timeline

See also: Timeline of web browsers

This is a table of personal computer web browsers by year of release of major version, in chronological order, with the approximate number of worldwide Internet users in millions. Note that Internet user data is related to the entire market, not the versions released in that year. The increased growth of the Internet in the 1990s and 2000s means that current browsers with small market shares have more total users than the entire market early on. For example, 90% market share in 1997 would be roughly 60 million users, but by the start of 2007 9% market share would equate to over 90 million users.

A rough estimation of usage share by percent of layout engines/web browsers as of Q2 2009,

Top 10 Virus

1. ILOVEYOU -

(2000) One of the most widespread and rapidly spreading viruses ever, the ILOVEYOU virus spread via e-mail, posing as an executable attachment sent by a friend from the target’s contact list.

2. Code Red –
(2001) IIS on Windows servers were the target of this virus. It also launched denial of service (DoS) attacks.
3. Nimda –
(2001) Nimda used seemingly every possible method to spread, and was very effective at doing so. Nimda is notable for being one of the fastest spreading and most widespread viruses ever.
4. Melissa -
(1999) The Melissa virus is notable because it is a Word macro virus. It cleverly spread via e-mails sent to contacts from the infected users’ address books.
5. Sasser –
(2004) Sasser exploited a buffer overflow and spread by connecting to port 445 on networked Windows systems. The chaos caused was possibly the worst ever, as systems restarted or crashed.
6. The Morris Internet Worm –
(1988) The grandfather of computer worms, the Morris worm infected Unix systems and was notable for its “accidental” virulence.
7. Blaster -
(2003) Blaster exploited a Windows operating system vulnerability and let users know of its presence with a system shutdown warning.
8. SQL Slammer –
(2003) This tiny virus infected servers running Microsoft’s SQL Server Desktop Engine, and was very fast to spread.
9. Elk Cloner -
(1982) Despite Apple’s marketing that their systems are less prone to viruses that was not always the case. Notable as possible the first personal computer virus, Elk Cloner infected the boot sector of Apple II floppies.
10. Creeper -
(1971) This is noted as possibly the first ever computer virus. It infected computers on ARPANET. Mostly harmless, the concept of Creeper has infected the minds of rogue programmers through today.
