So India World's Biggest Spam contributor, Indonesia Number 2!

E-mail is a means of effective and efficient communication. But unfortunately, current e-mail that is actually very useful littered with e-mails, e-mail containing information of unwanted or spam. The numbers were daily increasing.

Surprisingly, e-mail spam which is very much of this stems partly from Indonesia. Although not a contributor to the number one most spam, it would be a "disgrace" for our beloved country.

Which country is the largest disseminators of spam? Kaspersky antivirus company mentions in his research that India is the country sending the most spam e-mails. According to Kaspersky, during the third quarter of 2011, of the entire e-mail traffic globally, as many as 79.8 per cent are spam. Of that amount, 14.8 percent came from India, and 10.6 percent from Indonesia, and 9.7 percent of Brazil.

Darya Gudkova, a spam analyst at Kaspersky said the statistics reflect a growing trend for spam. Spam sent from computers in many Asian and Latin American countries due to lack of awareness about Internet security. Law to the realm of e-mail spam is still weak. This allows cyber criminals to build botnet (infected tissue).

Wijay mukhi, internet security specialist in Mumbai, the capital of India, said spammers are forced to find a new base after the other states crack down on the practice of spam. India currently has 112 million Internet users, the third largest in the world after China and the United States, according to The Internet and Mobile Association of India (IMAI).

The association estimates that 5 to 7 million new users being added to every month and with this growth, India will have more users than the United States two years into the future. This fact will increase the potential users become contributors to the e-mail spam.

Government officials may not act decisively because India does not have antispam laws. Something similar happened in Indonesia, as quoted from DailySocial, the Law of Information and Electronic Transaction (Act No. 11 Year 2008/UU ITE) does not explicitly express article related to e-mail spam.

However, it should be sending spam e-mails can be categorized as forbidden, as set forth in Chapter VII, Article 27-34. Violations of these articles can be punishable with imprisonment of law and / or fines.

So long as there is no clear legal for the prevention of spam e-mail this then we must guard against spam attacks "artificial" in the country.

Things we can do as users to reduce the spread of local spam is to use antivirus always updated and regularly change the password e-mail account.

Larry Page as Google CEO

Larry Page as Google CEOToday is a very historic day for the biggest companies in the search engines in the world, Google, since Google officially announced that it will soon replace Larry Page Eric Schmidt as chief executive officer (CEO). Schmidt then will take the role as executive chairman and focus on transactions, partnerships, customers, and the broader business relationships. He also will continue to act as adviser to Page and other Google founder, Sergey Brin.

According to Schmidt, Google's official blog, Page is now leading the product development and technology strategy began on April 4, 2011 will take over day-to-day operation of Google as the CEO of Google. Schmidt believes, along with Brin, Page will make Google better in the coming years.

Page himself said that Schmidt has done a fantastic job for Google. Google's results achieved so far is the result of hard work and it is clear evidence of his role in bringing Google. Still according to Page, no other CEO in the world are so deeply involved in product development while doing business with a very bright, as does Schmidt.

"Eric is a great leader and I have learned from him. His advice will be very valuable to me because I started in a new role. Google still has a tremendous opportunity. We're just at the beginning and I can not wait to get started," he said.

Keep in mind that Google also recently announced their financial statements, which are generally quite good. In the fourth quarter of 2010 Google earned 8.44 billion U.S. dollars, up 26 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009. Google-owned sites revenue amounted to 5.67 billion U.S. dollars, equivalent to 67 percent of all Google's revenue.

This amount represents an increase of 28 percent from the fourth quarter of 2009. Revenue from collaboration sites or Google Adsense Network Beban through a very popular program that amounted to 2.50 billion U.S. dollars, equivalent to 30 percent of all Google's revenue. This number is up 22 percent than the fourth quarter of 2009.

What does this change?

Shift the position of CEO is probably in response to increasingly fast run up in the Internet world. Although the power of Google's search engine is not disturbed, site most visitors in the year 2010 is up.

Search terms up also ranked first in the search terms most used in 2010. Even as of January 15, 2011 Facebok retains its power as a site with a visitor's most lots in the U.S., which is a contributor to Google's 50 percent more revenue in the fourth quarter of 2010.

This may be a separate concerns for Google because up within two years developed very good. Additionally, I predict, Page with the spirit of his youth might be able to match up owners are also still very young, Mark Zuckerberg, and saw the Internet as well as products to be produced from glasses to young people. This is important because most Internet users today, especially Facebook, are young people. Maybe Larry will soon release a social media site owned by Google itself or purchase of social media sites that already exist to match up.

Wait what we deserve Page steps to stem the progress of up and compete in the field of social media. However, that's certainly not to be done Page later. We know, in the smart phone operating systems (smartphones) and tablets, Google has been getting ready to launch Ice Cream and Honey Comb. This will increasingly assert Android smart phone operating system as the largest in the U.S. and the world in 2013.

Welcome NFC Technology

Welcome NFC TechnologyIf we look at the history of payment transactions, beginning first before any electronic conveniences one should take the money first to the bank by lining up at the counter so they should take the money to use for a certain period of time considering a sizable effort to take some money. With the automated teller machines (ATMs), everywhere attempt to take the money be light enough so a person taking money for short periods. In addition, holders of ATM reduces the risk of money from the crime of theft / robbery / etc because the money taken is usually less when compared with taking money at the bank counter.

With the development of information and communication technology (ICT), new electronic payment instruments that became popular in Indonesia, such as credit cards and debit cards. Both types of payment using smart card payment terminals are rubbed into the stores when paying. Smart card to replace the physical money that is usually stored on a smart card wallet so that users can avoid the crime and also get the convenience of users, ie do not need to take the money into a bank or ATM and store in a wallet.

Of course, smart card payment system must have a security system that ensures money is not taken by the user who is not entitled to and also there was no immediate claim payments that never made the user. Without the guarantee of security systems in smart card payment system, users will not be interested to use it.

At present, in addition to obligatory wallet mobile phone bring in travel. It gives ideas for innovators to combine wallet and mobile phone. There have been innovative from a mobile service provider to make payments using SMS and mobile web. A consortium of producers in the world mobile phone giants finally work together to create new products to combine with a mobile wallet with a Near Field Communications (NFC).

Actually, the NFC is the development of card technology Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). RFID has the same form and function like an ATM card is different from RFID cards do not need to be polished (contactless) thus RFID cards do not need to be removed from the wallet in the payment process, users simply hold the purse to the payment terminal or reader called. In Indonesia, RFID cards are widely used, for example: e-Toll for automatic payment of toll gates, bracelets (RFID tags, not the shape of the card) is used instead of tickets at amusement parks.

NFC technology on mobile phones a step further than where RFID technology in mobile embedded NFC chip that can act as an RFID card and also as a reader at once with a short range radius (less than 10 cm). NFC technology on mobile phones can truly replace the wallet in which to spend money and also received money from and to fellow users NFC. In addition to payment of NFC technology can be used as a replacement ID card, driver's license, student card, etc., time card, and others.

It is planned that by 2011 it would appear many leading mobile products equipped with NFC technology. The first mobile product with NFC technology is already marketed in Europe and America is the Samsung Nexus S, completed NFC controller chip products NXP (Philips), namely PN544. Philips is a leading manufacturer of RFID cards. Samsung Nexus S uses the Android operating system version supported by Google's Gingerbread. Google itself has prepared a variety of applications for NFC technology on mobile phones.

Many jokes about printing machine that works hard 24 hours a day to produce the amount of money very much for a very large fund expenditures. But on the other hand, the use of physical cash is on the decline worldwide, due to non-cash payments are growing in popularity. Although, according to economists in the money increases, the amount of paper money people are putting in the wallet tends to decline. This can be seen from the increasing number of credit and debit card transactions worldwide. Analysts predict that the top three regions in mobile payments is the Far East including China, Western Europe and the United States, which as a whole will account for more than 70 percent market share in mobile payment gross transaction basis by 2013.

School of Electrical Engineering & Informatics, Bandung Institute of Technology, is active-very jealous conduct research to develop Transaction System Using Mobile Phone and NFC Technology with a grant from the Incentive Program, Ministry of Research and Technology. NFC Research Group had been formed. The purpose of this research is to produce a transaction system with NFC technology on mobile phones for micro payment (payment with a small amount, for example: public transportation, shop, canteen, etc.) and macropayment (payments with a larger number, for example: supermarket, mini market, restaurant , various shops, etc.).

This transaction system to be very safe for users, sellers, and users of the financial industry so that money can not be reduced / increased improperly; seller get the money that should be, and the financial industry does not lose money and not have to pay should not. Let's welcome the presence of NFC technology for shared prosperity.
