How Google Adsense detects Fraud Clicks
Posted by SoMeOnE at 7:54 AM Labels: Adsense, Blogging, Google, Money, TipsRecently I got approval from Google Adsense. You can see the ads displaying in this blog sidebar and above this post. Before getting into the topic I have some personal tips for you , how to get approved by Google Adsense Program. These are 3 simple factors which you need to do
- Get A Privacy Policy Page On Your Website Or Blog!
– Wait A Few Weeks Before Apply!
– Have Quality Content! and please read Adsense TOS once before applying.
Now after getting approved and displaying the ads in your website/blog , main thing is clicking your own ads is prohibited and asking someone for click exchange. they are considered as invalid clicks. so Here are some detection methods they might use for calculating invalid clicks.
* IP Address:If the AdSense click is originated from the same IP Address as the one used for accessing your AdSense account, your account is flagged.
* Cookies from your Computer:More advanced users use dynamic IP! Yes, disconnect from the Internet, and join again, you change your IP, but Google for each click computer places on your computer Cookies.
* Other Google Services:Thinking that you are safe just because you do not access your AdSense account? Think again. This time, consider these: GMail, Google Earth, Google Calendar, Google Search, Google Toolbar, Google Talk, Google Sitemap, Google Desktop, Blogger, and so on. With the wide range of services they provide, Google can trace the originator of most (or probably almost all) clicks.
* Hardware/Mac Address:MAC address of the LAN card, modem, and router works almost like a fingerprint. I’m not sure if Google can track this, but probably they do.
* General Concept:# Google has some basic why this computer / IP address / person is so trigger-click-happy on this particular website but never click on the ads on other sites?
# Why is it that people accessing these sites direct (type-in URL or from bookmark) tend to be very active ad-clickers compared with those referred from search engine or other sites?
# why the ad-clickers like to hit and run, compared with non ad-clickers that surf a few pages before leaving?
* Click-Through-Rate (CTR):Your CTR may range from 0.5% to 10%, but if it exceeds a certain point (probably around 10%), you are flagged.
* Violation of Google AdSense:A clear violation of Google Ad Sense. “Make money by clicking on the ads” – even if you do not post this text directly sooner or later Google will find it. Again ban again no money.
* Search Engine Ranking:Your website is not indexed on any search engine, not linked by any prominent website, but get consistently high traffic? That sounds like something is in play. Regardless of whether it is an adware-embedded software, spam, trojan clickbot, or intentionally installed click-exchange network, it doesn’t sound right.
In short, it is almost impossible to cheat AdSense in the long term. Instead of spending time, money, and effort trying to outsmart Google, try these tips to improve your AdSense earning. Google might or might not use these methods to detect click-fraud. I’d believe that they have much better detection mechanism.

For all of you who want to scam your company's expense reimbursement system.
I've heard of sites where you give them a range of dates and a city, and they give you a full set of receipts for a trip to that city: airfare, hotel, meals, everything -- but I can't find a website.
FalseExpense will mail you an envelope full of fake receipts, suitable for submitting for reimbursement or deducting from your taxes, "FOR NOVELTY USE ONLY".
The process is simple:
* Email them the answers to a short questionnaire about the false receipt you want designed and printed.
* Within 24 hours, they will send you a draft scan by email of the fake store receipt.
* You give them feedback/changes you may require.
* They Print the fake register receipt with a real Point of Sale (POS) Thermal Printer and post 2 copies of the real receipt to your address.
* You can use them for whatever purpose you choose!!
* You need to pay a small fee- using your credit card.

How to charge USB based devices without a Computer
Posted by SoMeOnE at 9:30 PM Labels: Computers, Internet, TipsWe all have so many USB based devices which can be charged only via USB ports, like portable music players, digital cameras…etc. But when we go out for a trip or a long tour, it’s gonna be a huge problem to keep them charged all the time. Offcourse you can’t carry a laptop or PC to just charge them!
Here is a solution for that! You can buy a Universal USB Charger which is been sold by many merchants on eBay over here. You can plug this adapter to normal AC 230 volts points. Adapter simply steps down the 230V AC into 5 volts DC which is the voltage USB ports provide. These adapters are available for around Rs.200 on eBay

Opera Unite: A Web Server on the Web Browser (Complete Guide)
Posted by SoMeOnE at 9:57 AM Labels: Opera, Tech, Tutorials, WebsitesWhat is Opera unite ??
Opera Unite is a new feature which converts your web browser into a web server, so instead of only browsing the web, you can now also share files, send messages, chat live, host your own website, and much more.
To understand much better ill give you a good example. Suppose you want to send your friend a large file, you will first have to upload it to some 3rd party hosting provider and then share the link with your friend. Instead, with Opera Unite you can share the file directly from your computer. In short, Opera Unite kills the need of having to upload the files to a 3rd party hosting provider and gives you full control over your content.In short we can say "Take control of what you own."
This is a brilliant feature since it clearly protects one’s privacy and at the same time help establish a connection between family and friends.
Before Getting into what is what .. Just have a look at this Video :
So, If your using Opera's latest version you can Enable it.click the Opera Unite icon in the system bar and select Enable Opera Unite.
If you Don't have Opera - Click this link > to Download Opera Unite 
* Next step is On the Opera Unite Setup Welcome window, click Next.
* Now register an Opera account and click Next. This step is compulsory.
* In the next step, choose a computer name and click Finish to end the setup. This name is used to distinguish your computer from other computers that you may have.
Note : that this computer name will become part of your Opera Unite web address.
Now How to use this Opera Unite ??
* Now once Opera Unite has been enabled and all settings are complete, you will be shown the default landing page for your web address. This is the page where everything that you share will be visible to your family and friends.
My Opera Unite Page - Link
You can access My page when my System is ON and When I have Opened my Opera browser.
so for using this service your system and Opera browser must be ON.
To Access the Opera Unite Control Panel, click the Panels icon which is located on the left to the tabs bar and select Unite from the list.
As you can see from the screenshot above, Opera Unite comes with six services, File Sharing, Fridge, Media Player, Photo Sharing, The Lounge, and Web Server. You need to install each service separately before using it. We have covered each one of them below.
File Sharing :
File Sharing service is used to share files directly with friends. Double-click this service and select the folder whose content you want to share.
After you have selected the folder, all of its content will be listed on your page. You can modify the Access Control (Found on Rightside bar)and make these files either Public, give Limited Access, or make them Private. A URL link to share these files with your friends is also given.
Note: All hidden files in the shared folder will also be shared.
I couldn’t find an option to make some files private, while allowing other files to be made public. At the moment, you can only set your whole shared folder as either Public, Limited, or Private, not individual files.
I have shared a desktop client for the Twitter - twhirl
