How Does Google Rank Websites? - 14 views

  •  
    Explain how Google's algorithm works. Why is it hard to rank high? all nov 9 johny
  •  
    The Google algorithm is also called as page ranking. Page Rank depends on the outstandingly democratic nature of the web via to enormous link structure as the sign of the values for each individual page. Google would understand a page A to page B as vote; it would look noticeably more at links age receiver and the sheer volume of votes. It would analyze what you are searching for and it would pick pages the most important page from the rest of the file that is relevant to your topic. Sometimes important pages wont answer you question. That's why Google page rank is combined with complicated text matching techniques to find the page that is important and similar to your question. Google does more then searching pages that has a match to your question it would examine the feature of the page content (satisfied) and that it would decide that is this page is a good match of your question. Because many websites don't have the possibilities to get highly ranked, because they also need to compete with other websites that comes from the company and they got millions of back links. For example you want to make a website about selling second hand stuff. When your going to try to search about second hand stuff it would directly show you E-Bay because it more popular and it has more views. The websites that you may been searching for must be on the 15 page or more then that because the web may have not enough back links or even none.

    Google have transfer you automatically to its "encrypted" service, one designed to prevent potential "eavesdropping" on your searches. Google have use SSL( secure socket layer) to protect your search. Is can also be use when you are logging on to your bank account online. Google have introduce the SSL search, with the SSL search you can do your searches on Google with more secure and you are in private so no one can see what are you searching. Before Google URL was HTTP/www.google.com but now it is HTTPS/www.google.com. Its secure now. Google have use SSL to help protect your data from unwanted access. So what you are connected to internet café, local hotspots or hotel your data will be secure. But Google is not responsible for any viruses you get over the internet searches. The SSL will only protect your personal information.

    1. Identify the area of impact the scenario relates to. Business and Employment 2. Identify the main stakeholders to the IT system. People who go through full-body scans Operators controlling the scan machines 3. Identify one ITGS social/ethical concern in the article Privacy 4. Describe ITGS terminology and systems. The systems in this situation include both hardware and software. The hardware is the actual scanning machine while the software is the scanning machine's system that controls whether or not the scanned files of the people passing through are saved into the system or discarded or not. 5. If possible, describe a solution to the concern (issue). Modifying the system to remove the option of saving files could be useful because if the option to save was not present, then it can be assured that the operators do not have the ability to go against the policy. If it is a requirement for the system to need to save files, then the system should be modified to only save files that detect an abnormality that goes against the policy of the scanning. (For example if the scan shows that the person is carrying weapons etc.) Only having the authorized people to view it when it is need with stricter rules.

    Which would you use? march 17 kuni
  •  
    I would use Google Sketchup, because this is one of the applications that I have on my computer. Google Sketchup is a software with which you can make a 3D model easily. Compared to the other 3D modeling software, Google Sketchup is easier to use. It has some tutorials for beginners, and you will find out how easy it is to create 3D model like a kid making a tower of blocks. Also, if you buy it, you will be able to convert it to a file that can be used for other 3D modeling software and modding games. I would use Google Trends just to see what's trending and Flight simulator in Google earth sounds pretty fun for when you're bored. I would use ; Google Page Creator, Flight simulator in Google Earth, and SketchUp. I would use the fight simulator, because it looks fun, and SketchUp mainly because I've always wanted to do some sort of graphics design on the computer. -In my opinion I would like to use Google SketchUp, and Google Book Search. First of all Google Sketch Up is helping me to make 3-D model. This is very useful in art class because when we have something like installations, we need some sketch of location and installation therefore by this program, I can draw 3-D installation and see how it looks like therefore this program is very useful for me. Also For the Google Book Search, this is kind of digital library which I can find book very easily and efficiently. I can see the books by this program also I can upload by own books which I can scan it. Therefore it might be very useful when I have something like writing essays. I would use Google Page creator. It enables to me create a page where I can find snippets of web pages, quotes, and images all over the web.

Libya turns off the Internet and the Massacres begin | ZDNet - 3 views

  • Now, though, realizing that they could no longer hide their abuses from a world a Twitter tweet away, the new model autocracies, such as Libya and Bahrain have realized that they need to cut their Internet links before bringing out the guns.
  • As in Bahrain, Libya’s Internet is essentially owned and controlled by the government through a telecommunication company Libya Telecom & Technology
  • Mobile phone services in Libya are also under the control of the government. So far though the government doesn’t seem to have cut international phone services off-perhaps because that’s harder to do without cutting off local telephone service.

    Identify the area of impact the scenario relates to. Politics and government Identify the main stakeholders to the IT system. Libyan government, Libyan citizens, Libyan telecommunication company (Libya Telcom & Technology) 3. Identify one ITGS social/ethical concern in the article. Surveillance 4. Describe ITGS terminology and systems. Internet : a computer network consisting of a worldwide network of computer networks that use the TCP/IP network protocols to facilitate data transmission and exchange Bit.ly : URL shortening is a technique on the World Wide Web where a provider makes a web page available under a very short URL in addition to the original address. Top level domain : A top-level domain (TLD) is one of the domains at the highest level in the hierarchical Domain Name System of the Internet.The top-level domain names are installed in the root zone of the name space. For all domains in lower levels, it is the last part of the domain name, that is, the last label of a fully qualified domain name. 5. If possible, describe a solution to the concern (issue). It is hard to suggest a solution basically because it is the government's decision to shut down the internet. Therefore the only way to solve this issue is to discourage dictatorship in Libya. Main reason for the shut down of the internet was the cooperation of Libya Telecom & Technology which is owned by the dictator's son.

    Why is the US introducing a bill to limit tracking? Explain problems with implementing a no-tracking law. may 17 jen
  •  
    Why is the US introducing a bill to limit tracking? The US is introducing a bill to limit tracking because practically every website you visit keep track of at least some activity for some conventional purposes, while some aren't (such as preventing you to vote twice in a poll). With this bill, the users will be able to have the Do Not Track option while visiting the website. Explain problem with implementing a no-tracking law. The problem with implementing a no-tracking law is that once the law is passed, users will still have a hard time of knowing whether or not a site is tracking them. Not all sites will honor the no-tracking law, and because they don't honor it, they probably won't tell their users' that they're still being tracked, along with what information is being gathered for what purpose.

    The device is designed to absorb and feed on micro droplets of water. However if someone were to step in a large puddle of water the device could be over loaded and burnout. Also with the problem of how to transfer the energy a cable would work the best because if you use wifi or Bluetooth other devices could pick up that signal and steal the energy supply for their own use. A solution to the way power is generated it to do something similar to the Japanese train station and make the pad in the shoe absorb shockwaves from each step instead of the micro water molecules also if it were shock absorbent it could be but into a waterproof case so that it can withstand rain and puddles.

So, since a great number of people have used the Internet frequently, their jobs are needed to people because as much as people use the Internet, the data will be increased and people need other people who can manage such things.
