Cheat Sheet: Social networking
Cheat Sheet Should social networking sites be banned at work? It's also something that hasn't escaped advertising execs who are getting excited about the opportunities for tailoring marketing on these sites and reaching demographics they are extremely keen to... [15 Jun 2007]
Cheat Sheet: Web 2.0
Cheat Sheet The most popular are sites such as Blogger, Flickr, MySpace, YouTube and Wikipedia and the Godfather of web 2.0 - Google. Web 2.0? I'm learning to spot a buzzword when I hear one and I think I just have. [21 Aug 2006]
Cheat Sheet: Net neutrality
Cheat Sheet Currently, the internet exists on a 'best effort' basis and no sites, in theory at least, are classified as more important than others. What's this net neutrality fuss all about? An aggressive catfight about who should control the internet or at... [16 Jun 2006]
Cheat Sheet: Mash-ups
Cheat Sheet For example retail sites now mash up the fact Google can search for FedEx tracking codes to provide online order tracking for packages. Mash-ups? If this has anything to do with old people and their food I really don't want to hear it. [26 May 2006]
Cheat Sheet: Wikis
Cheat Sheet Wiki sites don't tend to be monitored, so posts are instantly accepted - meaning everyone can add, delete or amend existing posts. Wiki - I know this one. These are the people with the encyclopaedia, right? [16 Aug 2005]
Cheat Sheet: RSS feeds
Cheat Sheet Do all news sites do RSS? Another one of those acronyms, then. You best start off by telling me what it stands for. Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary, depending on who you listen to. I'm none the wiser. [09 Mar 2005]
Cheat Sheet: Blogging
Cheat Sheet Many companies run their own blog sites, though it's normally a lot more 'on message' than an independent site. Good question. It may seem like we're getting a little late to the ball game with this one, but blogging - a contraction of web logging... [09 Feb 2005]
Cheat Sheet: The WEEE Directive
Cheat Sheet Every year around 1.5 million PCs find their way into landfill sites. The WEEE Directive? Surely you're taking the pi. Not at all - this has nothing to do with euphemism, it stands for the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive. [29 Oct 2004]
Cheat Sheet: Spyware
Cheat Sheet You may wonder why you get pop-ups every time you visit certain sites, or why you get directed to certain web pages or search engines every now and again. Responsible sites that use it to track advertising are doing very little wrong, legally or... [29 Jul 2004]
Cheat Sheet: Phishing
Cheat Sheet Auction sites such as eBay have also been used for phishing scams - though the idea there is slightly different. So what do they do with the auction sites? Obviously a number of recipients will be members of popular sites such as eBay and many of... [25 Jun 2004]
Cheat Sheet: Spam
Cheat Sheet Spam is completely unsolicited mail, ranging from adverts for Viagra and porn sites to offers of cheap loans and murky pyramid-type schemes. What is it? It's unwanted email. The electronic form of the postal junk mail you receive every morning. [03 Jan 2002]
Cheat Sheet: Cookies
Cheat Sheet Cookies can also be useful for sites which feature banner ads as they are commonly used to rotate ads the site serves so consumers don't get the same one all the time. Other sites, especially ecommerce and content offerings, also want to know if... [29 Nov 2001]
Cheat Sheet: i-mode
Cheat Sheet The network operator has signed up 31.1 million i-mode users in Japan (figure: 17 Feb 2002) since the start of 1999, and they can get information pushed to their mobiles (or keitai) or do other things like play games, or surf approved i-mode sites. [08 Nov 2001]
