Uir Practical 4 & 5

I have been busy with assignments since my time table has been change to block teaching. so much stress and projects... I come to school at 9 am and went home at 9 pm doing assignments. I even come back to school to work overtime on Saturday from 9 am to 9 pm for my assignments

Okay back to topic. Basically for week 4 and 5. I spend the time doing my UIR assignments. After the lesson i am able to understand how many types of search engine are there. Example Google a normal search engine, MetaCrawler a search engines that search the search engine and directories. And i use the three of them to search for the keywords i type and compare the findings and the speed of the search. What advanced search features they have. Now i had learn how to make use of the advanced search features of Google to help me conduct a more detailed search..

At lab 5 We form our group for assignment 2 and we have to choose a topic and the problem is choosing the topic, my group and i don't really know what we want to do and we spend like 1 hour choosing the topic. crap, then finally we pick "Discuss the developments in the market for 3G mobile devices". Then we start creating the group and topics in www.uir-rawkz.wetpaint.com and start our assignment 2

Okay thats all for Lab 4 & 5 and proceed to Lab 6a!

UIRrrrr~ Practical 2

Heya all!
What i have done today is to do reseach on the impacts of cyber crimes on business. Here are the list of links and the description of the website

Subject Topic Website:
http://www.crime-research.org/news/2003/07/Mess0903.html
Cyber crime impact world economics
http://www.ebizq.net/topics/com_sec/features/7573.html?rss
Cyber crime’s impact on business

Organization Website:
http://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/19367.wss
Cost of cyber crimes over take physical crime

Personal Website (Blog):
http://fraudwar.blogspot.com/2006/02/will-cyber-crime-lead-to-economic.html
Fraud, Phishing and Financial Misdeeds: Will cycber crime lead to economic disaster

Firstly, I used Google as my search facilities. Because google can do wonders. Google can even "assist us" in hacking. Google has the best Crawler!

Secondly, the keywords that i used for my search are impact, cyber crimes, business. By using the keywords, google is able to filter out all the unrevelant topics and only display the keywords that they found.

Thirdly, I havent compare yet. Haha, cause class end liao lah. I will do it later

Cheers!
