Yamli Search: Aywa Keda!

The Arabist - Mon, 2007-11-19 01:40 By arabist

Yamli Search is very intriguing new search engine that transliterates Arabic written in the Latin alphabet into Arabic proper, and then runs that query through Google. It’s really quite neat — for instance if you type “ikhwan al muslimeen” it will search for “اخوان المسلمين“. You have to try it out to see what I mean.

The idea behind Yamli is that Arabic speakers often have to work without Arabic keyboards and are more used to English keyboards anyway. This is what they say in their press release:  read more »

the digital jihadis and the digital outreach programs

hakawi from the east - حكاوى من الشرق - Sun, 2007-11-18 18:25 By hakawi

What saddens me is how the real terrorists - as opposed to the made up terrorists of G.W. and his admin - are using th internet for their ‘digital jihad’. Instead of using the internet for beneficial stuff, they use it to network, communicate,, and post horrendous stuff on it.

Apparently alQaeda  [or God knows who!] is using Pixar technology to re-create their attacks and post their propaganda and ‘achievements’ videos, according to Wired Magazine. View this video hosted on LiveLeak   .

Blog Hacking

Green Data - Wed, 2007-09-05 09:22 By
I've received the following question a while ago, so I think it'd be nice to publish it here.
Amre El-Abyad said:

Dear Tarek,
What iss the best way to protect one's blog against hacking?
And here is my answer:
Dear Amr,
First of all make sure that you have a strong password that no one can guess easily.
Also, some Add-On's and Widgets are not trusted, they can bring you Advertisements and steal your account credentials (user name and password), especially those free Toolbars and the untrusted programs that people add to their browsers.
Make sure you have the latest Antivirus in order to protect yourself from key-loggers and the other Malwares.

Favourite, favourite, favourite :P

Green Data - Mon, 2007-07-09 13:11 By
One of the cool features in Firefox is its built-in spell-checker. In fact I cannot live without spell-checker either in office or web applications, especially when writing an new blog post. But it used to annoy me each time I write the word "favourite" this way. I even started to believe that my spelling was wrong. But today I knew the reason after seeing this link. And the good news is that you can download different dictionaries for Firefox - including the one for British English - that work with the spell-checking feature in it.

Wget and DOS For Loop

Green Data - Fri, 2007-06-22 17:52 By
Most of the time when you want to download a file, you righ-click on its URL in your browser and choose "Save Target As", to save it somewhere in your local hard drive. But imagine the case where you want to download about 100 files, saving each file individually will be really boring and time consuming. So let me first introduce you to a tool called "wget"

"GNU Wget is a free software package for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS and FTP, the most widely-used Internet protocols. It is a non-interactive commandline tool, so it may easily be called from scripts", GNU Wget Page.
