Dear Friendster,
Friendster’s Server and Network’s Poor Performance
The above matter kindly referred.
Your blog and website performance is too slow within a few months and no major changes has been made in your web service perhaps because your populatiry has been overshadowed by Facebook or Blogspot or because of the economic crisis?. Because of that I am moving to other services and will leave whatever post, image or files in your server because I am too lazy to do that (and because I will be wasting lots of time in the process of moving or deleting my information in your server).
You have been providing an excellent service to connect people and businesses for the last few years. I hope to see a better Friendster in the future.
That’s all. Thank you.
Regards,

Study proves surfing at work increases productivity
April 3, 2009
A large scale university study in Australia has claimed to prove the theory that allowing access time to social networking media and other entertainment sites while in the workplace actually increases productivity.
The theory analyzed by students and researchers at the University of Melbourne suggests that workers with access to their standard ‘leisure browsing’ on websites such as Facebook, become more productive with their assigned tasks.
“People who do surf the Internet for fun at work, within a reasonable limit of less than 20 percent of their total time in the office, are more productive by about 9 percent than those who don’t,” said Dr. Brent Coker, a professor from the school’s department of management and marketing.
Access to the internet in your workplace is a bit of a taboo still for the majority of medium to large businesses with employees in officers. The majority of the time you can find enterprises spending insane amounts of money on limiting access for productivity concerns - the exact behaviour which is being suggested to harm, not focus companies.
“Firms spend millions on software to block their employees from watching videos on YouTube, using social networking sites like Facebook or shopping online under the pretense that it costs millions in lost productivity, however that’s not always the case,” he said.
Increased productivity is said to come from careful management of leisure browsing, and of course if it is not managed to a sensible degree then it will have a negative effect instead.
“Approximately 14 percent of internet users in Australia show signs of Internet Addiction, they don’t take breaks at appropriate times, they spend more than a ‘normal’ amount of time online, and can get irritable if they are interrupted while surfing,” Coker said.

Social networking harmful to health
February 20, 2009
Social notworking sites like Facebook and MySpace may increase the risk of cancer, strokes and dementia by altering the way genes work, according to a report in the journal Biologist.
Aric Sigman wrote in Biologist that the number of minutes a day Britons interact with other humans has fallen by two thirds in recent decades, from six hours in 1987 to two hours in 2007. Instead the amount of time they spend doing things that remove them from physical interaction like watching television, listening to iPods, playing video games or visiting Web sites, has doubled to eight hours a day.
This lack of “real” interaction combined with a dependence on technology is increasingly tied to physiological changes known to influence morbidity, or the extent of disease, and mortality. This stuffs up hormone levels, immune responses and blood pressure, the function of arteries and the brain.
Sigman said that evolution helps those who connect with other people. Anti-social people are doomed to an early death.

A special request song …
February 1, 2009
Uncle Alem called me in the morning, somebody needed a song called Cinta Sabun Mandi so much, so I searched and find out the song is a really interesting song … perhaps I wanna dedicate to someone hahaha
Cinta Sabun Mandi
Aduh nyair dengarkanlah
Cintaku tulus dan suci sama nyair..
Kalau kaca bisa pecah …kayu juga bisa patah…
Tapi cintaku pada nyair tidak pun pernah berubah
Sampai mati cintaku takkan musnah……
Cintaku kepada nyair tak seperti sabun mandi
Pabila sering di pakai makin habis kurang wangi
Percayalah cintaku ku suci dan murni
Ku jual baju celana itu semua demi nyair…
Aku rela jadi kuli demi nyair
Walaupun Madonna cantik Mariyln Monroe juga cantik
Tetapi bagi ku lebih cantik nyair…
Aku rela korban harta demi nyair….
Aku rela korban nyawa demi nyair…..
Performed by Jaja Miharja
Heavy rain outside … and my stomach is so full … yawnnnn

Perhaps,
January is the busiest month?
February will be the longest
March will be the longest
April will have something bad gonna happen
An so does May
Oh yes … June and July could be better (think positive)
August, dream come true?

October and November must be slow
December will be hard to predict.
But I bet on February …
Sampai Syurga

Kumembenarkan jiwaku
Tuk mencintaimu
Kupersembahkan hidupku
Tuk bersama kamu
Dan diriku untuk kamu
Belum pernah kumerasai begitu
Semua itu telah berlalu
Harapanku palsu
Dan mungkin hari yang satu
Terus ku tertunggu
Di hatiku masih kamu
Belum pernah ku ingin terus memburu
Aku lemah tanpa kamu
Ku inginmu dampingi ku
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Tuk dirimu
Namun aku tetap aku
Yang terbaik tuk diriku
Hanya satu
Hanya kamu
Kumembiarkan hatiku
Tuk merinduimu
Kumenghamparkan sakitku
Tuk tatapan kamu
Bersamamu harapanku
Hilang dalam terang yang membutakanku
Aku lemah tanpa kamu
Ku inginmu dampingi ku
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Tuk dirimu
Sampai syurga kumenunggu
Sampai syurga kucintamu
Hanya kamu
Dan segala yang ku ada
Kuberikan semua
Untuk dirimu saja
Ku mahu dirimu
Bahagia tuk selamanya
Biar sampai syurga
Aku menunggu cinta darimu
Agar ku sempurna
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Tuk dirimu
Namun aku tetap aku
Yang terbaik tuk diriku
Hanya satu
Aku lemah tanpa kamu
Ku inginmu dampingi ku
Aku fahami aku bukan terbaik
Tuk dirimu
Sampai syurga kumenunggu
Sampai syurga kucintamu
Hanya kamu

The State of Spam: What to Expect in 2009
January 2, 2009
Spam, oh spam — can we ever get rid of you? 2008 saw a promising blow to the endless sea of junk mail, but the relief didn’t last for long. Now, spam experts say new forms of annoyances are on the way for the new year.
“Some battles have been won in 2008, but the war is far from over,” says Martin Thornberg, co-founder of SPAMfighter, a software development and spam research company.
So far, junk mail has managed to infiltrate only about 22 percent of its potential Internet territory, Thornberg says. That means more methods — and, yes, more headaches — are bound to be on the horizon.
The Spam Forecast
They may not have a doppler radar, but the SPAMfighter team has a full forecast — and it doesn’t look pretty. Here’s what’s topping the junk mail outlook for 2009:
• More social network spam. Spammers started bringing their ways to networks in increasing numbers throughout ‘08, and that trend is expected to climb quickly in the coming months.
• More complex networks behind the efforts. The shutdown of a Colorado hosting company in November had a significant effect because of its configuration: That single company served as the control center for the majority of botnets that were propagating unwanted messages. Researchers think as much as 75 percent of all junk mail was tied to that one place. Spammers will be smarter in 2009, SPAMfighter says, building more resilient and less centralized systems.
• More combined methods. Spam will be partnered with spyware and phishing tactics to create new kinds of “blended threats,” SPAMfighter says.
• An increase in “spear phishing,” or spam campaigns targeted to specific groups and interests. These might include messages tailored to employees of a particular company or organization, or even just to members of certain online networks. The messages are designed to look like official communications.
• A general rise in creativity. In 2008, SPAMfighter observed things like phishing attempts disguised as warnings against phishing. As even novice Internet users become more savvy, the disguises are likely to expand.
The Spam Equation
Many of the anti-spam precautions seem obvious — but, obviously, everyone isn’t taking them. The good news? The number of people still gullible is small. A recent University of California study (PDF) suggests only one in every 12.5 million spam messages gets a response.
The bad news? That tiny percentage is enough to generate $7,000 a day, or $3.5 million a year, for a decent-sized spam network, the study says. What’s more, the activity could add as many as 8,500 new bots into the spam network every 24 hours.
While we’d love to track down those imbeciles actually ordering stuff from spam — if you’re one of them, please leave a comment below with your contact information — the more realistic action is just to spend a few minutes talking about proper cyberprotection. So, if you’re confident in your spam-fighting abilities, relax and enjoy a complimentary pumpkin muffin.* Otherwise, read on and reinforce your knowledge.

Your Spam Protection Plan
• Thinking about responding to an unsolicited message? Maybe a pleasant request to be removed from the list? Don’t. End of story.
• The same goes for “delivery failure” messages. If you don’t remember sending the message being referenced, hit delete and move on.
• Avoid giving out your primary e-mail address on any forum or blog site that you don’t absolutely trust. Set up a secondary “junk” account for public distribution instead.
• Similarly, don’t post your primary e-mail address on your own blog or Web site. Bots will find it and add you to their lists.
• Never send money, either for a purchase or donation, to any entity you learned about through an unsolicited message.
• This is old, but it still hasn’t hit home for some folks: DON’T CLICK ON LINKS IN UNSOLICITED E-MAILS. If a message from your bank tells you to click to confirm your account, ignore it. Open up your browser and type in the bank’s legit URL manually, then see if there’s any real issue to be addressed.
Simple enough? I thought so. And, not to leave anyone out, we’ve arranged to commend your continued reading with a warm cinnamon sticky bun, on the house.** You’re a strong soldier in the war against spam, dear friend. Welcome to the team.
