Here's a tutorial on How To Probe Your Apache Setup For Vulnerabilities. The server guys would appreciate this tutorial.
This tutorial, inspired by one of the chapters in Hardening Apache by Tony Mobily (APress), will show you how to set up the free web server security scanner tool, Nikto. This tool will probe your Apache set-up for vulnerabilities, so you can get an idea of what holes may exist in your configuration. This tutorial will only get you so far as installing the tool, and running your first scan. [Link]

Google page rank is quite a mystery to me. It works differently on my sites. It took 7 months to build up Arloo blog to get a PR4. But this blog Feb13 got a PR-4 just after 2 months. What do you think? Maybe Feb13 got more related backlinks in a short time. I am not sure about that.
Now, I am working on a new blog. It's
FunnyRemix-dot-com. It's the first blog that I run on a web hosting and a domain name. Basically, you can say that it's my big and serious project. Like every bloggers out there, I really want my blog get a moderate PR[about 3,4] within a short time, say, 3 months. I believe that I'm not expecting too much.
I believe there are some technique to pull it off. I have started building FunnyRemix just 4 days ago. Are you surprised? And I have put 100 posts into that. And I am building the links up. So, let's just wait and see. I'll try each and every SEO tricks I found. And I hope I can write about what I am going through.

Everything's new to me but I am doing just fine. Of course, I had to do lots of research for setting everything up. Well, here's the screen-shot of
FunnyRemix.com.
It's mainly for entertainment purpose. You know, just to kill some time and have fun. You can find daily updates of hilarious jokes, funny videos, cool flash games, animations and all. I try my best to keep entertaining the visitors.

Recently, a friend mine has started an affiliate marketing business on the internet. She got the idea from a Thai professional who makes money using Adwords and Commission Junction. And now I am pretty interested in doing that.
Here's how it works. You become an affiliate at CJ and when you get the advertisers link, you put that in your adwords ad URL. Yes, you can make money that way.
There is one thing that I like about this affiliate selling. You don't need a website with high traffic - since you are just selling using Adwords. Pretty cool! I think I am gonna try it a few days later. For now, I am learning about that in some forums.

It's summer time in Thailand now. Needless to say, the weather is very hot. Here goes a joke my teacher told us; Thailand has only three seasons namely the hot, hotter and the hottest. Now is the hottest time. Actually, my home town, Yangon is also very hot in summer. Well, I stop talking about weathers now. I just want to say that it's really hot outside now.
Blogging and meI stopped blogging a month ago. It was because I was busy and didn't have much time to work on my blogs. It just happened and I couldn't do anything about it. However, the traffic to my blogs were quite stable and they kept making around 150 bucks per month. It was really a relief for me. I don't expect much from blogging but you know when you get money for something you've done in your free time, you feel good and it's really sweet. I just hope I can blog more in the future.
What was going on?A few months back, I talked about a TV series based on the story of King Bayinnaung. Actually, the news about that TV series is not much heard. Perhaps, they are shooting now. I just didn't get any detailed information. I'll inform you when I get the latest information.
Fellow bloggers, I wish you all blog well and eat well. Bye for now.

Things just didn't go my way lately. I was pretty much stressed and busy and all. I feel so bad that I couldn't post a single entry for the past few weeks.
I am back afterall - feel quite fresh and well. The blogging thingy is important for me. So, I'll manage my time well for blogging. Otherwise, I wouldn't stand a chance to stay active in the blogosphere.
By the way, today is the Valentines day. Wish you all happy on this very romantic day.

Making money from a blog is not an easy task to pull off. It takes time, intelligence and creativity. Last week, I had been working some new projects and I had to stop all of them because I was so tired of it. Blogging for money definitely is difficult!
Now that I have taken a break, I resume my blogging starting from today. I have got a few more ideas. But I have to continue my current projects first.
In the meantime, I found out that my Myanmar blogger friends were also not active. They might have been busy. I don't know. I hope they will become active soon. Alright, this is just a quickie post which is nothing useful. Thanks for reading :)

Eric from
Subnixus wrote that to become a problogger is like a dream that will never come true. I might quote him a little bit here.
“The chances of you becoming a ‘professional’ blogger and quitting your job is low. So low in fact that you have a better chance of being hit by lightning. All one has to do is look at this from a logical standpoint”
The number of blogs online: 25,000,000
The number of “professional” bloggers: 5,000
Your chances of becoming a “professional”: 0.0002%
Your chances of being hit by lightning: 0.033%
If you still think there are a lot of “professional” bloggers in the world, I wouldn’t go walking around outside on a stormy day.
There is also a pyramid showing how the Blogosphere is organized. I agree with Eric on some points. I agree that to become a problogger who earns 6 figure income from blogs is absolutely difficult. However, to be successful in blogging also needs natural talent, skills and luck. Therefore, not everyone has a chance of 0.0002%. Some bloggers might have advantage over others in terms of skills, talent or luck.
For me, it doesn’t matter whether I become a problogger or not. I just want to make some money on the internet. And I’d be really happy if I can make $1000/month income out of blogging. So, I'll still be dreaming; not to become a problogger but to make some $$$.

Compared to other nations in South East Asia, Myanmar has very few bloggers. I am not sure why but there are more than a couple of reasons. And we do lag behind the others. In this post, I will not be writing about the reasons now. I'll just write a newbie blogger's thoughts on Myanmar blogs.
Regular updates are quite rare among Myanmar blogs. I love reading my fellow Myanmar bloggers posts. But it takes quite a while to read their new posts. I know that most of them are students and some of them are busy with their jobs. And it makes me feel like I am doing nothing but blogging. I admit that I spend most of my free time on my blogs either posting or tweaking around. Believe me, I don't even go out. No night clubs, no nothing. [I think I'm like a blog maniac now] But I do take some breaks playing soccer with my buddies in the evening.
Since a few months ago, I've been encouraging my buddies to blog, too. They started but didn't continue. You know what, most of them would rather play War Craft.
Now, I think we have a handful of Myanmar bloggers. Their blogs are great. They write well. But I think we need more, a lot more. As far as I know, Malaysia and Singapore has thousands of bloggers already. That's awesome. I hope I will be able to read tons of Myanmar blogs in the future; be it an online diary or tech blog or expert blog. I'll enjoy reading them all. However, teenage Xanga diaries are not my taste.
