With the operation name #OpIsrael hacker group Anonymous will return to action against Israel. This time they claimed the cyber attack would be launched large-scale, targeted to wipe Israel off the internet.

Anonymous asked the hackers around the world to join the movement coded # OpIsrael which will begin on 7 April.

“Tim hacker decided to unite against Israel as a whole, and Israel must be prepared to be a party that is” deleted “on the Internet. This is not a hacker, not a team of hackers, but this is a collection of hackers, “wrote the group Anonymous.

Anonymous said cyber attacks next month will be the biggest cyber attacks ever directed to a country. Anonymous attacks were carried out to remind the world of the Israeli blockade on the Gaza Strip.

Responding to the threat of Anonymous, the Israeli government take serious steps. They sniffed cyber attacks next month a major offensive that has never happened before. Haaretz the Israeli news media reported that the government set up the country’s cyber defenses against attacks Anonymous. Group Director of Online Government recognizes Israel Ofir Ben Avi, #OpIsrael being organized in the last few days.

“What distinguishes this movement with the previous attack, this is actually done by the Anonymous-affiliated group from all over the world are joining forces together,” said Ben Avi.

Earlier, in November 2012 and then, raising Anonymous attacks on Israel when the Jewish state was bombarding Gaza. At that time, Anonymous attacked 700 Israeli websites, including key government sites such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Office of the President of Israel. Ministry of Finance claimed to get 44 million unique attacks late last year from Anonymous.

Nokia’s concept laptop with a scroll type OLED makes me swoon! We all know that OLED’s offer bright and extremely colorful images. With a wide viewing angle, low power and high contrast ratio, viewing things on the laptop will certainly become more fun. Kudos to designer Rodrigo Mercado for coming up with such a fantastic concept. The voice activated laptop along with scrolling OLED and additional features like inbuilt Skye and several other popular cell phone functions make this device irresistible! Unlike LCD’s, OLED’s don’t need back lights, and the fast response times make them ideal for viewing movies. Movie viewing on a laptop will never be the same again if this concept by Rodrigo comes to life.

Samsung presents world’s first and largest transparent OLED laptop at CES

We have already seen some of the most interesting transparent gadgets in the past, but the latest laptop concept by Samsung, showcased at the CES 2010, will definitely take you by surprise with its immaculate transparency. Featuring 14-inch OLED display, which when turned off becomes up to 40 percent transparent, the laptop concept is claimed to be the world’s first and largest transparent OLED laptop. This is the only info available at the moment, though you may go through the video for a closer look after the jump.

I’ve seen this idea before and loved it every time: two solid parts and a small and thin display between then, perhaps even a flexible display, although I can’t guarantee that. The Sony PSP 2 features Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G, a front and rear camera, plus a transparent OLED screen that’s probably 5 inches in diagonal. The device is very easy to hold with two hands and very easy to handle. It feels more like a bigger joystick, than a full fledged console, which is cool.

I should also mention that the concept dates from back in 2009, according to the designer, making it even more interesting. The general layout of the D pad, analog sticks and action buttons is pretty much the same as the one we already know, but everything is just… more futuristic and minimalistic. I like how the designer included the charging port on the right inner side and the audio jack and mini USB port on the left inner side. This is certainly a console I’d buy and the shoulder buttons look classier than ever. Simply great!

The device is also pretty hot and it does look a bit like the Galaxy S4 and S3. The specs are pretty good and the way the QWERTY keyboard is integrated is very original and discrete. Samsung Galaxy NxT measures 8.6 mm, which is very good for a QWERTY keyboard phone. Its case uses titanium, glass and rubber and it also includes 2 microphones, stereo speakers and a 5.55 inch Full HD display.

At the back there’s a 16 megapixel camera with Xenon flash and upfront a 3 megapixel shooter, both with infrared illuminator. We’ve also got the usual Bluetooth 4.0, DLNA, microSD and NFC and microHDMI (bi directional) is also here. Qi inductive charging is present and sadly the designer didn’t mention the CPU or RAM. I guess it’s probably an Exynos 5 Octa and 2 GB of DDR3 RAM, if you ask me.

The keyboard is a 4 row QWERTY, that’s very compact and user friendly. Quite a fantastic work from Cristophe, so congrats on that! There are more Samsung concepts from him, so stay tuned!

The device is called the Sony Xperia PS and it packs a Full HD 6 inch display, 2 GB of RAM and a 1.5 GHz quad core processor, as well as an Adreno 320 GPU. You can map the power button and camera button into the left and right button apparently and there are two illumination bars on board like on the Xperia S. The Sony Xperia PS packs a 13 megapixel camera with rounded LED flash and a 3 MP front camera, plsu a removable back cover and a very pretty design, with tiny bezels.

The CPU inside is a Snapdragon S4 quad core at 1.7 GHz and other specs include 32 GB of storage, a microSD card slot and Bluetooth 4.0. There’s also NFC, a removable 3000 mAh battery and the camera uses Exmor RS sensor, HDR and Full HD video recording. Frankly speaking, I can’t say I’m really excited by the PS4, but I’m quite happy with the idea of a PlayStation phablet. How about you?

If you're a web designer or planning on entering this line of work, there are a few things that you must keep in mind before you proceed. As you know, the first impression is the best impression and therefore your client's website needs to be perfect.

Make use of all the space you've got

Yes, your website shouldn't look too cluttered; but at the same time, there shouldn't be a lot of white space either. Therefore, the best thing that you could do is make use of text, images and maybe even videos to fill up the available space.

As long as you use the right padding and font size, the webpage won't look too cluttered no matter how much content you place on it. Usually, the content isn't going to be your problem as you're just designing the site the way your client wants it.

Responsive design is needed today

You need to make sure that the website you design is responsive so that it looks good on all screen sizes. If you don't want to create a responsive site you must at least create special mobile versions as today most users browse the web on their phones and the initial steps towards a business deal also take place through their phones.

Beware of broken links

Well, this may not be your problem, but if you want to be a good web designer you need to make sure that the website you put up is perfect and has no flaws whatsoever. Therefore, make sure that all the links on the site are in a good working condition and don't lead to 404 errors as this could be harmful for the site.

Navigation must look good and be easy to use

The navigation menu should be good and easy to use. There are various ways to do this, so choose the way that would be most suitable to use. Usually an overhead header menu works best, but some sites would prefer a sidebar menu too.

Site Search

One of the most important factors of a site that some web designers tend to forget about is a site search option. You need to make sure that this feature is available as a lot of people use it, even though it may seem insignificant.

Use Google web fonts

If you're looking for a cool font for your website, it would be advisable to use Google web fonts as they have a wide collection and they work best.

In this article we will discuss some of the most common yet most annoying computer hardware and software issues and how to fix them properly. Article also advises the simple precautionary steps you can take to avoid these issues from being arisen at the first place.

1. Computer Hang: Its late in the night, you are working on a very urgent office presentation on your computer and suddenly your computer got hanged. Does it sound familiar to you? Getting your computer hanged while working on some important work or college project is quite a common scenario which many of us has seen. I know I have seen it couple of times and I feel like beating the circuits out of my computer at that time.

Reason: The most common reason why computer got hanged is that the processor got slow and is not able to cope up with all the processes that are going on. It might be the case that you are using some extremely heavy tool or software utility which caused this problem. In some cases, playing video games with heavy graphics requirement can cause this issue. No matter what the reason is, it's always incapability of the computer processor to cope up with current applications that causes your computer to hang.

Fix: First thing first. If you intend to use the heavy software tools or utility then make sure your computer's processor is capable to take up the load. If not, it's better to upgrade your computer processor and RAM. In case you are facing this issue despite of a capable processor and RAM then most probably reason is some background hidden process that is running and consuming all of your processor and RAM. Perform a proper background operation check and make sure that no regular software update or some unwanted virus process is not running background. Thirdly I suggest you perform defragmentation of your hard drive once a month to make sure that computer is not slowed down due to the segregated data.

2. Data Corruption: Data corruption is another major issue that arises every now and then if you use your computer regularly. The data corruption is nothing but the unavailability of the computer data for many reasons. If your data is corrupted then you will not be able to access it even if it's still inside your computer's hard drive.

Reason: The data corruption can happen for many reasons. First common reason is that your computer hard drive may get crashed due to which all the data inside the drive got corrupted. Second common reasons generally is the presence of some unwanted virus that causes problem in accessing the particular data or corrupt it by introducing the junk data within your data. Third reason might be the processor is not able to track the data within the hard drive for any reason.

Fix: Fixing a data corruption problem can be little tricky and I advise you not to do it yourself unless you are a data recovery specialist. The data inside your hard drive is very precious since there are literally tons and tons of files and documents stored in it. Minor flaw in your approach in recovering the data can lead to serious data loss. It's better to allow the specialist perform the data recovery.

There are basically 2 types of data corruption. The first type of data corruption is considered as the easier data corruption. In this case, most of the time, a computer virus is responsible for the data corruption and running a simple virus scan and performing basic data recovery diagnosis will give you back your precious data.

The second case is bit tricky. In this case, the hard drive got damaged (soft/hard) and due to this there is chunk of data that is missing and due to the inconsistency in the entire data due to the lost chunk, the remaining data also becomes unreachable. To fix this issue, there are many software tools and utilities that offer reproduction of the lost data from the remaining block. The data recreated by these software utilities is then carefully placed in place of the lost data.

The whole data is merged employing some serious computer logics and algorithms and there you go, you get your data back. The second technique is quite expensive and in some cases time consuming but the results are most of the time satisfactory.

First let's talk about creating Rap Beats using Hardware. To name some of the most common pieces of Hardware, there are Drum Machines, Samplers/Sequencers, Keyboards, Sound Modules and Workstations. In my opinion one advantage to using Hardware is the ability to use the Drum Pads and Keys. The feel of tapping your fingers on the pads of a drum machine or sampler and hearing the kick or snare through the speakers is awesome. There are drum pad interfaces today that you can use with software programs but the feel is not the same.

Another advantage of using Hardware is the speed or lack of latency of your sounds. With Hardware there is no processor fighting other programs to access the data off the hardware program like there is on a PC that is running various services and programs in the background. As soon as you play a key or hit a pad the sound is instantly played. As well as when you are cycling through you sounds on a keyboard workstation or sound module, the sounds load instantly and there is no time spent waiting for them to load.

Now let's talk about the disadvantages of using Hardware versus Software. The biggest has to be the cost. Keyboard Workstations, Sounds Modules and Samplers can easily put you over two or three thousand dollars a piece and some even higher. On the other hand, you can get software like FL Studio for a low as $99.99 or less. You will still need some type of Midi Keyboard/Controller to play the sounds but it is still much less expensive. You also have to factor in the money you put into the computer that you use to run the software but you can custom spec build machines to do this much cheaper than buying the expensive pieces of hardware.

Another advantage to using software is all of the VST's that are available online. A VST is a virtual instrument used within software, basically all the sounds that you use to create your music. There are many sites online where you can buy or download these VST's for free. You can then load these right up in your software and begin creating music. Just make sure the VST interfaces with the software that you are using. It is not that easy to add sounds to Sounds Modules and Keyboards. They do make expansion slots to add more sounds but these again cost more money and you are limited to what's available.

Although Gmail has been in existence since 2004, Gmail Labs were only introduced in mid-2008. Gmail Labs are arguably what makes Gmail extremely powerful as a mail client, akin to how web browsers like Firefox and Chrome can be extended via extensions.

Here is a collection of labs that you can use today to become more productive using Gmail and processing your e-mail.

1. Canned Responses. Canned Responses allow you to create a message that you can easily re-use when replying to e-mails. For example, if you use your Gmail account for your business, and regularly send the same response to a common inquiry, then you should absolutely use a canned response to save yourself the time of re-typing that message each time.

2. Custom Keyboard Shortcuts. Although Gmail comes with keyboard shortcuts for common actions already built in, it may be difficult to remember especially if you use shortcuts in other programs. This lab allows you to modify those keyboard shortcuts to your own liking.

3. Default "Reply to All". Save yourself an extra click by enabling this lab. It changes the "Reply" button in the top-right of the message to "Reply to all".

4. Message Sneak Peek. This lab lets you see a bit more of a message without having to open up the message completely. This is useful when you have a lot of emails that you delete quickly. Either right-click, or hit the shortcut key (default is 'h').

5. Quick Links. This is one of my favorite labs. While Gmail's search can be quite powerful and fairly fast, if you find that you perform the same searches repeatedly, this is a great way to save them in something called a Quick Link. Once saved, in future, all you would need to do is click the quick link in the left sidebar, and Gmail would pull up that saved search.

6. Send & Archive. Send and Archive saves you a click and helps you process email faster by changing the Send button to both send and archive the message thread. You should already be using archiving to get your inbox down to zero.

7. Superstars. If you use Gmail's starring to highlight certain emails, you may want more than just a single gold star. Superstars gives you the option to select a number of different colors and icons including question and exclamation marks.

8. Undo Send. Undo Send is potentially a lifesaver that I've now used more times than I can count, despite being a rather careful e-mail sender. Essentially, it gives you a window of time after you hit Send during which you can 'undo' and retract the message before it's actually sent. This is great for those times that you entered the wrong recipients or had a thought about the content of the e-mail the split second after you hit the send button.

Gmail Labs has many more extensions that you may find useful, but start with these 8 and see if you don't spend less time processing your e-mail every day.

With more than 250,000 iPad apps in the iTunes Store, it's evident that custom iPad app development is an extremely popular field. And, because of this tremendous quantity, the ability to provide a differentiable, value-added product or service via the App Store has never been more difficult. This is not meant to discourage -- it's just that a quarter of a million apps have an inconveniently annoying way of covering 99 percent of the general population's needs.

Anyone familiar with getting an application to market will tell you that it's hard enough just getting all of the pieces together -- from hiring the right software firm to completing development within the timeline to ensuring the app is accepted in the App Store. With the odds stacked against the average app from gaining a solid customer-base and reliably generating revenue, what are the modern rules for creating custom iPad apps that actually have a chance to get noticed?

Follow the Data:

The best custom iPad app developers listen to their customers' needs. Understanding your consumer-base no longer requires having them fill in archaic surveys for analysis. Data gathering tools are readily available for mobile devices so you can better understand key factors such as app usability, feature gap analyses, and the purchasing tendencies of your customers.

How are your customers interacting with the app? Are they finding it difficult to navigate? Are there bugs causing issues for your customers? Usability tools like Crashlytics and Flurry can show you problematic areas for your app, allowing you to optimize features and provide a seamless experience for users. They help pinpoint the parts of your iPad app that are most heavily used so that you can focus time on developing functionality. These tools are extremely useful for maintaining the longevity developers desire when they first submit their app to the App Store. Ultimately, because there's always a surplus of new apps in the App Store, existing apps that aren't evolving to meet the demands of customers quickly get left by the wayside. To that point, diligently tracking your app to ensure it stays bug free, unique, and delightful for users is a rule that goes on far longer than the original development cycle of any iPad app.

Phasing Feature Rollouts:

Apple has long been known to hold off a year or two before putting new technology into one of their devices -- and it's a strategy that has paid enormous fiscal dividends by increasing its stickiness with customers who make each iterative purchase. The first iPhone didn't have a front-facing camera, the first iPad didn't have any camera, and 4G (now a two-year-old technology) only recently came to Apple in 2012. By taking a more gradual approach to adding features, Apple products often show a polish and refinement that competitors struggle to match, giving customers all the more reason to buy the latest iPad, iPhone, and Mac.

Likewise, iPad app creators can maximize customer engagement using a gradual feature release cycle with a well-planned product roadmap. A strategy that neither overloads an app update nor stingily withholds new functionalities will optimize stickiness by providing users with a consistent set of feature upgrades that will occupy them until the next one.

Here are a few reasons why gradual release cycles work:

For example, Net Texts is an education technology firm with an iPad app for students and teachers designed to help end the reliance on textbooks within schools. The first version of Net Texts' app allowed students to download course material onto their iPads. Subsequent updates (scheduled around the academic year and based on constant feedback between Net Texts and schools) added features such as note taking, audio recording, integrated schedule planning, and interactive testing with grading and reporting functionalities.

By phasing feature releases, Net Texts has been able to help schools acclimate themselves to the app by easing in new functionality while also attracting a greater audience. This approach ultimately gives customers the exact features they desire from an educational product. Allowing users to "pull" features into an app as opposed to "pushing" features from the top-down results in a loyal and growing customer-base.

Understanding the Input:

Touch computing has opened new and exciting ways to use our fingers as inputs. On tablet-sized devices, the immediate advantage of a touch screen is that it can mimic the functionalities of both the keyboard and mouse. However, because modern screens are multi-touch, they can offer much more. Inventing your own custom gestures can become an immediate differentiator. Using one finger to scroll through a webpage or a playlist is great, but what about using two fingers to quickly highlight text or three fingers to change volume levels or the brightness of the screen? Innovating at the touch-level is one of the best ways to stand out from the pack.

For instance, the iPad app "Paper" by 53 Studios, allows a user to take two fingers and dial back their mistakes. It's incredibly simple, completely original, and most importantly, makes users' lives easier by keeping them focused on the drawing canvas as opposed to pecking through buttons. By understanding the fundamental ways in which people want to draw using touch, "Paper" has grabbed valuable mindshare within its specific vertical as well as piqued the curiosity of millions of casual iPad owners.

It goes without saying that creating a compelling iPad app in such a saturated environment is a tough task. However, even with all of the barriers to entry and the myriad of competitors, the market opportunity to capture a significantly large customer-base is far too big to avoid. With that said, the above points are smart ways to uniquely create value for customers and generate stable revenue from their continued interest. Ultimately, keeping these rules in mind will help you remain sticky with your consumers and, even more importantly, will keep you nimble, agile, and ever responsive to the pulse of your customers' desires, ensuring they have no reason to go shopping around for substitutes.

Nowadays, only the best antivirus software products are able to detect all threats that are known, identify any potential risks quickly, and remove all malware that might have already been picked up by your computer. They are also able to block malware that might make attempts to get into your computer or laptops using various methods like chat, email, P2P file sharing, external devices, network connections, disks and websites. Most importantly, they should be able to do this in the background, without devouring all of your computer resources that are needed for other things.

Every year, the same antivirus and security products tend to offer the best, but there is always room for change. Here are the best products from current ones that are on the market.

Best Products

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, Norton Antivirus and Webroot Secure Anywhere Antivirus programs are considered best for technological publications and testing facilities. Webroot and Norton are tied for the top spot in the malware removal test, but Bitdefender is not much far behind as well.

As soon as you have installed your protection and cleaned up any threats that already exist, your antivirus will then spend the majority of the time fending off any new attacks. Some products are better at preventing a problem in rooting out malware that has been in your system for a long time. Webroot seems to always score better in blocking new problems.

The best antivirus software must be constantly evolving in order to combat creative shape-shifting malware. In fact, computer viruses are at a pandemic stage. The first nine months of 2011, one software company processed 19.9 million new specimens of malware and still there are computer users who do not use antivirus software. They think that if they are careful where they click, their computer will not be infected, but this is no longer the case.

Many consumers use more than one real-time antivirus program, but that uses too many system resources, often causing conflicts and can even in some cases reduce your protection.

Best Free Programs

The very best antivirus software that is available free is "Avast! Free Antivirus", as evident from many recent studies. Avast has been improving steadily in rates of detection over the last several years, so now it rates up there with the best. It also has real-time capabilities including email, web, IM, P2P, network shields, boot-time scanning, and a behavior blocker. The newest version 6 also has features including site rating plugins, malware script protection and other situations. This is a FREE program and it does not use up all your resources as well.

Another best antivirus software for free is MS Security Essentials by Microsoft, which has high rates of detection, predominantly for rootkits. It is even more remarkable in having very few "false positives"; doesn't use many resources and is also good at removing any malware that already exist. It needs very little interaction and it updates and removes threats automatically. Moreover, it doesn't have any registration, ignoring advertisement or nag screens. It is best to note here that MS Security Essentials needs an authentic copy of Windows to be installed.

What are the predictions for 2013?

Threats to our computer systems and networks are predicted to get more sophisticated in 2013, as hackers become better at what they do, so it is going to be necessary more than ever to have the best antivirus software that you can afford. You may also have a look at the free software that is on the market, if your finances are not in a good shape lately. Lack of money is no longer a reason for not protecting your computer and personal information.
