Twitter Infected- A new Security Flaw which has Infected Twitter

I never wanted to write again and again about a social networking site or a micro-blogging site, but once again Twitter is what made me write this.
 Twitter user's who tweet or reply to tweet or whoever clicks on the twitter webpage will see an error message page, which is a third party page.

Twitter is hacked and the hacker had a script injected into it that whoever click on twitter's Web interface will be taken to a totally different website like below.

The reason for this is a script which is getting executed on mouse click like below:

In the above image you can see a script. The hacker has kept the Font to the maximum pixels size and on mouse over the script executes which takes u to a different website without your consent. This is a new security flaw on twitter.

Better to change the password when you login next time and when you find the site is working fine.
Please don’t click anywhere on twitter until u see the above script ie “Latest: http://t.co/@ “style fonet=9999999999px” http:\\u002f\u002fis.gd\u002ffl9A7” near your update box .

Why are we even Independent?

Chennai has given several awesomely funny experiences.This story is based on a true life incident.
Disclaimer: The names or keywords used here are as per my views, bare it.


As usual, i woke up and started M49 chase. My day begins with M49 . Contrary to normal, the pilot has changed. It was pretty crowded and i found a place to park myself. Things were Okay until i heard the Pilot yelling. He was yelling to some other pilot. The issue here was someone overtaking through left side. The pilot looked innocently cruel like the Hollywood villain. Age will be above 50 & he is not at all happy with this word. Now what is my fault in that. 45 mints of journey and that too in a crowded bus. Oh! I forgot to specify one thing, am traveling in a bus and since i travel in bus, all drivers will be renamed as Pilot.

The bus was so crowded and passengers were hanging on the doorstep and half of their body is outside the bus. Still the Pilot was not at all concerned about all this. He was more focused in driving the bus Zig-Zag when someone comes through left side. Now there is some problem on passengers side too, i accept that. But morning time all people will be going to office, school, college etc. The public transport is a good option, one way reduce traffic and reduces pollution.

If the people who travel by public transport start using their own vehicle, then i think there won't be enough space on Chennai roads even to walk. People who are traveling in the public transport is playing with their life at times. Not just inside, even people who are using other vehicles are afraid of the City bus and the way they drive. No one is concerned about how a Govt bus is being driven, not even the police. Here i have seen many times that city buses ignore red signal and this causes confusion. Still no action is taken against them.

When the Govt has started city bus service for voter's or citizen's to travel, does it mean that the city bus Pilot never need to follow traffic rules? Why is it that Govt is never concerned about how things work, after they start something? The amount invested on these resources is very big, but maintenance and the way these things are used is pathetic. I think, this is the same case with almost all Indian cities.

Everywhere the tax payer's money is used by govt. The tax payer has to pay and use all these services, i ain't cribbing. But the politicians never had to pay for any of these services and now they re going to get a salary hike. If this is what is going to happen in this country for some more years, then definitely we will be able to see empty M49's. India is not short of talents or skilled employees, but all of them preferred to have better life living outside India, even if it is little more costly.

I am a person who loves my country and is proud about it. But our leaders may force me to run away from here.....
Oh! Its time to sleep now, Need to catch my M49 tomorrow early morning...

A letter from an Addict

In a beautiful green environment, we never feel sitting at home and surfing the web. Instead we go out for a walk or enjoy the environment. When you are having option of Polluted traffucked roads and cement sky scrappers only, what will you do? That is when human's go behind their instinct's. The instinct which they got since when the human race began, hunting for options or making new options. This is the origin of Social networking or living online. Going to mall or going to pubs or disco's are also some options. But finance plays a spoil sport in the latter ones, where as surfing web is always best option for people who want to stay at home, don't want to spend much money. Internet in India is much cheaper than the common commodities here, while compared to early years. In a virtual world, where you can use an name or ID and surf, chat with people, do shopping, play some environment friendly(or so called) games, do some farming. Be the head of the Crap Mafia and more. Forgot to mention, the latest one i noticed is MAYOR. This is the latest update which is getting trendy. Internet or Social networking sites are places where some people fulfill their dreams, some people release their frustration, some find their life partner's, some do business and while some others use it for learning and more..

I will say, neither this world is mad, nor the people: but the system and the less choices they get make them live in Virtual reality.

Some of the famous terms on virtual world is Blogger's, twitterer's, facebooker's, buzz, Wave and the notorious of the online community The Orkutiya's. If this is the people part, then there are some famous keywords which had become part of everyone who surfs net. Google, Tweet, Update, Follow-Unfollow, Scrap, Wall, comment, Like-Dislike,fan,testimonial,DM,hashtag, Farmville, Crop, Ribbon, Vampire, Mafia and latest and most trendiest as per me Mayor.

Internet was considered as a sophisticated thing some years back, but what made the revolutionary change? Is it people / broadband? Neither, it is innovation, Social networking is one of the most important innovation. Now a decent social networking site is not just your place for fun, but if used in the right way can be a place for earning and living. Or you can use it for ad's , selling, buying , promoting your product(music, band's) etc. A poll on any of the social networking site will give you the statistics about your question and the result is "Directly from the people". Directly from the people means, a unfiltered group of people. It can be a closed or an open group, depends on what kind of result we are expecting.

On the other hand,Social networking has become the favorite playground by hacker's, malware specialists and spammers. These people use Social Network as the best way to communicate as well as to send infections. This is like a Coin, with two ends. In my words "For every good innovation, there is a worst Infection waiting". Consider ourselves, all of us are mortal's and we know one day we will die. But we are not afraid of that. Likewise, Social networks may be vulnerable and infectious; but staying away from them or not using them is never a solution. Instead use them, savor them and feel the taste. This can be a new passion or a new way of living.

It's all about Options, We got infinite number of options. how and when to use them is what we should learn. If we learn that, then Social networking is the best.

Yours
Addict :)


PS: My friend's says that am addicted to some social networks, even though i dont think am an addict:P

Life of Jack: A story of a Gentleman

Happiness is not a season, it is a moment. There will be various reasons for a person to be unhappy. Mr. Jack is not at all an unhappy person. Jack always likes to be in a state of Trance. To attain Nirvana or state of Trance some people do consume some C2H5OH, but for Jack it is not needed since he is made of that. When in nirvana, he is the happiest and make sure that people around him also is happy. Now why Jack? What is his significance here?

So one day, as usual jack was resting on his favorite place in Singapore. Its late night and people are around. Jack likes people around, especially people confused in buying things and saying those good comments after seeing him sitting. The looks on their faces, it says "i want everything , but i don't want to pay for any of them". The classic human nature in a way, to dream about getting things free of cost.

Jack saw a man rushing and in another moment, All he can see is darkness. There is no light, nothing is visible though he can hear people speaking. The man on the counter speaking about Dollars and offers. What about the gentleman who came rushing? Why was he rushing, this thought made jack little confused. After sometimes, he realized that he is on an aeroplane, flying to some country. All this is happening without his consent. He is missing all the fun around. He is missing his friends Johny, Constantine, Brown, Evan etc.

The plane landed and Jack is still not free. He is worried of where he is taken. The state of no freedom surrounded by darkness is bad. He is in a car now, he is moving towards some unknown location. The car stops, he can hear the driver talking in some strange language. Some unknown , never heard language. "Now where am i" Jack tried shouting, but his voice never came out. Jack can feel someone carrying him. He tried peeping out, but he was not able to move. May be jetlag. The person carrying him has put him down. The question was Where am i and who took me here? Why? Jack knows, there is no answer for this question, he has seen many of his friends being taken away, but no one ever asked their permission. They also must have had questions like him. This was a known fact to him, Life is not immortal, it is going to get over sooner or later. But he never expected it to happen this soon. he remembered once johnny telling him the story of someone taking his cousin by mistake and dropping him home later.

Where has the darkness gone, how come there is a light. Now jack can see that he is sitting with some strangers. They are talking in some strange language. He never heard this language, may be Italian Mafia? No they are talking in english at times, their dialect is no where similar to Italian. Suddenly Someone Kicked Jack on his back. He can feel the power of the shot, moving his Disc. Jack tried crying loudly, his voice is not coming out. Those people are tearing his head and they are taking blood in glasses. Jack can feel his limbs getting light & darkness embracing him. He can't feel the pain anymore. Last thing he heard was "Cheers" and its all over. Now Jack knows why the gentleman was rushing. He bought him and now Jack will be staying in their intestines for them to attain Nirvana.


The life of Mr. Jack Daniel's is over here. A gentleman who lived as a king loosing his life in 25years. Yes This is the life span of a Jack Daniel's bottle. He was treated like a King for 25years and one fine day his life Ends. Still he is the King, King of all Whiskey's, Jack Daniels. born in Tennesey

For all Jack Daniel's lovers :P

Lost and Found

We knew since sometime, quite sometime. We know each other quite well, we are good friends, more than that. Some relationships can never be named. Yes that is what i wanted to convey.

Two friends who know each other since long time, but due to some reasons not able to be in constant touch. Now what is wrong with that? Nothing, we are the same like we were before. There is nothing like we need to be in constant touch all time.

Let me tell something about my friend, Knowing a person since longtime is awesome, especially when am able to predict what that person is going to do and am always able to spend sometime daily thinking about that person. A complicated, sweet, sophisticated innocent person. SO what is great about that, there will be lot of people like this, but why this person. Irrespective of difference in opinion and other things, we have never fought. We never got chance or may be that person was too sweet with me.

One thing i know is after every conversation of ours, we are happy, ateast i am.

Two different states, cultures, human minds who got some common things in mind and a unbreakable bond. That is what i think about it. We lost contact almost a year back and two days back we met online, we spoke. We spoke for long time, we spoke about different things, but never felt bored. I felt guilty for not keeping in touch because of unknown reasons.

Why am i writing about this?
Its simple, I writes about things in my heart and this one, am never able to understand. The positive part is understanding or patience to listen to each other. Two hard rock fans, who have similar thoughts, but trust me i love this person.
If i ever get a chance to do something for this person, i will be the luckiest to get that opportunity.

I have heard people talking about how they lost contact and how they lost their friends, but as per me, am lucky in this. I also know people trying to define relationships and come to a conclusion. May be we have never tried this or may be we never wanted to do so, but my experience: Not all relationships are to be named or defined. There are some relationships which are above friendship and it is better not to name them or not to find what they are. Just let those relationships as they are, because they are the purest.

The God of Cricket on twitter, will he create record here?

Twitter is a place where you can see celebrities, media, High Profile people and even now Cricketers. This is a single place where you can see the live updates of these people. For a common man, this is sometimes too much a reason to use twitter. For media, this is a place to make news, infact the media collect feedback's from people in twitter. The influence of twitter is so much that, it is changing the way things used to work.Guess what, God joined twitter today, by God i mean "The God of Cricket", Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar.

A common man may be using twitter for either micro-blogging or may be for his small business or just for fun. A celebrity or a politician using twitter, they have to tweet carefully. Each statements they make here is going straight to the people. We have seen examples of these in the past months.

When twitter is having a negative effect at times, then why to use. This is the question you should know. What you have to tweet is important rather than whether you tweet or not. People follow or unfollow based on the tweets and kind of interaction.

Recently i have noticed many cricketer's on twitter. They have got plenty of people following them, today The God of Cricket Sachin Tendulkar joined twitter. Now how did i know it is real sachin, The person who introduced is Atulkasbekar the super lensman. But the account is not yet a verified account. Though nobody is sure whether it is real account or a PR account, the number of followers is increasing very fast. In an hour, more than 1000 people are following him & there is a high probability that this will become a trending topic in twitter and also on the media.

The people in twitter are happy seeing Sachin's twitter handle and profile, but none sure whether it is real sachin or someone else. The reason being the very first tweet of SRT said "Finally the original SRT is on twitter n the first thing I'd like to do is wish my colleagues the best in the windies" and people are damn sure that a person like SRT will never tweet like this, but since Kasbekar announced SRT's arrival on twitter and all the updates are being sent from a blackberry, it will be SRT only. The handle of God is "Sachin_rt" and this will be the most watched handle in coming days. Twitter is always in news and now it will be most watched, atleast in India. hope this is for good. :)

Life was a bitch, I Tamed it!

A post after a long time. I took a break from blogging. Guess what, it wasn't intentional. Past some days i am going through a packed schedule, not getting time for anything. I will give partial credit to the hot weather too.

There are many blogs which are pending and most of them are travelogues. I want to post them,but not getting time for that. Now time management is something i want to learn. I am getting enough and more time to manage my official work, since it is all about my career and passion. The problem is personal life and activities such as blog.

Let us rewind my life 2 years back.
Location: Pune
Job: Careless easygoing party guy, a biker and a techie

A easy going guy who doesn't have any order in life. The only pain in my life was office, the weekly off's. We were a gang, 7 men gang in office. The work environment and nature of work put some restrictions on our life. There were very less chance of 7 of us getting off on the same day in a week. To compensate with this, we used to meet daily, Hang out daily. Drinking is not a good habit, drinking without a time set is a bigger problem. The nigh shift and sleeplessness made us start a new habit. Drink and sleep. We stopped it eventually, we changed it to play cricket after shift or go for a ride after the office and sleep. Saturday and Sunday were party days, meeting up with friends etc. Another activity was long rides on bikes. We were a biker gang, all biker freaks. IT was totally awesome life, but then career thoughts came in. Opportunity knocks and i accepts, have to leave Pune. Lands in chennai, the first threat announcement in flight "The Temperature outside is 34Degrees". The flight landed after 1am and i never expecting that amount of heat.

Twist:

Location: Chennai
Schedule: work in nights, sleep in the morning, even it is hot.
No activity here, not much friends here, the only option was office, Entertainment, work, learning that became my life. Accepted the fact that this is the best option when the question is career. Accepts it, still keep going to pune in between to meet up with friends and enjoy. Time passed by, got promoted, made some very good friends in chennai.Then twitter invaded my life and things changed again. I became a total social animal. Started attending tweetup's(Twitter get togethers), met people and there number of friends started. Eventhough this place no where near to Pune regarding the weather and fun part, the friends made me feel good. Now got used to this place and life here.

Now you saw a small part of life and the changes which happened. Human's are so adaptable to change, sometimes selfish when it comes to their personal benefit. Being a human, i also did that while coming to chennai. But still me and all my friends meet. We meet mostly for all Newyear's or whenever all of us get leaves. Distance never becomes a challenge, if the friendship exists.

Life is something which changes. There is no way you can live a life at a constant speed. From the time we are born till whatever we are now, life takes many twist and turns. The point is we should accept those twists if it is good for us. We will have to sacrifice somethings for accepting the twist though. Now when someone asks, "How is life dude?" My answer is "Life is a Bitch, I tamed it".

If i can adjust, if i can accept the truth and doing so if i didn't loose anything other than growth in my life; i am right, i have tamed it. Taming it doesn't mean my life is set, there will be more challenges and these challenges are what makes me keep going. Without thrill, there won't be any fun...

I wrote this blog, because many people asked me about my google status message & how it happened. This is the reason for that status message. May be i am wrong or may be this is my destiny, but definitely everybody will be getting a opportunity which if used will turn good.This won't be acceptable to all, but this worked for me & this is the reason for the status update...

Every moment is precious, live it.
