SEO Query (Alexa)
by Victor Ngeny 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Hi All, I have a query regarding Alexa rankings. Here's the situation. I believe I have my SEO elements sorted ie Content, Keywords, HTML, Social and all. My Google Analytics stats bear me out in that my traffic stats have been and are on the rise. My issue comes in with the Alexa ranking, seems the site has dropped by about 70 positions country-wise. I'd like to know if you pay much attention to your Alexa ranking. Secondly there's the issue of the ranking being based on people who have installed the Alexa toolbar on their browsers so does this mean the point of using Alexa ranking as a metric irrelevant? Thanks. Cheers, -- Victor Ngeny Mobile +254733960996 GTalk: victormaritim Twitter: @ngeny Yahoo: vikngne Skype: victor.ngeny

Re: [Skunkworks] Xbox or Ps
by Jangita Nyagudi 21 Nov '12

21 Nov '12

I'd personally go PS3 because 1. I change the internal hard disk to 2TB and then Jaza it with full HD and 3D movies etc so I never need a DVD player. I just download/copy and watch (if you have a 3D TV), so basically i have a Tv, ps3, dstv and sound system. 2. Also add music to it 3. Noticed there are more 3D games than XBox (not sure about this though) 4. I used move instead of kinetic (that again if you care about such things) 5. Also realised that there are quite a few accessories (like a guitar and microphone! for karaoke games), and the Gun which i love to play killzone 3 in 3D (wow!) 6. The online/connectivity experience is lovely. At times i use a bluetooth keyboard and browse onscreen for simple tasks. And i regularly play fifa and NBA with my palls online (i couple with safaricom e173 and 3g router) 7. Oh and this PS3 was bought in late 2008 and still serves me till today - i picked the white one :) 8. You can crack/mod it to play backups (don't know about XBox on this) 9. Also found out quite a bit of people have ps3 games to swap My thoughts...

Hi all, I have a a dilemma guys, i have done my research on the net and still cant get the exact response that i need. We all know that sharepoint runs on the .NET version 3.5.....so what would happen if i installed .NET 4.0 on the server?? 1. would it replace and upgrade the .NET 3.5 already installed?...and if it did would it affect sharepoint negatively? I would guess not since am just doing an upgrade 2. would I be able to run different .NET versions on the same server, and just use different application pools in different web applications in IIS???? Any experts out there please help!!!!!

And only when there are enough people who want or voice that change. Consider this a part of that process. In time, and this is not directed to zuku, competition breads excellence, at this stage in our development, a few companies have become complaisant and monopolistic, its only a matter of time. As far happy customers, its like a relationship, you can only attest to the solidness of your relationship when things are bad, not when they are good. When things are great, it doesn’t count. Ive been in business for 20+ years and if I cant stand behind a product I will stand behind the customer, if I can stand behind the product, the customer will stand behind me. Its always been that way and shall continue to be. For me personally, it’s the principle of the thing, you simply don’t take someone’s money under false pretenses and by this I mean, charge them for services not provided. The quality of service is a hit or miss, some companies are great, some not so great when it comes to customer service. Globally and in general no ISP can guarantee 100% connectivity, there are too many factors. However, consumers can understand and tolerate problems when they know and feel certain that the provider is addressing the issue. When a company is plagued with constant and regular issues and is not willing to be fair, it says something very clear about the companies view of its own customers. Time will tell my friend, and time has a way of dealing with things. I had a thought yesterday, im wondering if the big guys at zuku watch their own channels, assuming they have no internet issues, surely they can see that the tv lineup is full of repeats. Especially the zuku channels. Same movies from last year and they play every month. The English channels show repeats weekly, so what you saw last month and twelve months ago is going to show again this week and maybe twice. Just wondering if its just my attention span, perhaps im meant to forget.

This is NOT paradise (or hell, if you prefer!) where parameters are statically uniform. You can transpose this across all service providers, and not just ISPs - I mean any service provider - whatever the service. When it comes to ISPs, it can be said that Zuku has assumed notorious proportions of customer neglect. Again, there are happy customers, don't forget! So what is the solution? There is only so much that you can do in pursuit of quality service and running away is not one of them because it does not solve the problem. If the fine print says you get X, then by all means you should get X unless the fine print also had exceptions. If the support guys don't treat you well, you can always escalate the matter to the Client Relations Manager. If the CRM is not able to help solve your problem then, my bro/sis, it's time to either contend with poor service or opt for another better and more expensive option or an inferior one (in terms of your expected speeds) that matches your budget. If you're over-zealous, you may as well report the provider to the regulator. I believe CCK has a unit that can take this up with the provider. PS: It's sad that you all can gang up behind your keyboards/monitors to air your complaints, but cannot physically come together and call a meeting with Zuku's CRM, which is what you guys should be doing in the light of your tribulations!

They poisoned their relationship with carrier and that is akin of Microsoft pissing on the Wintel hardware company. Their other problem is, in my opinion, despite window 8 being a great phone OS finally, they are too late in the market. I would say the smart phone market is now mature and not driven by the aesthetic of the interface, but on the hard reality of how deep one pocket is. Early adopters tend not to be sensitive to price, but when the masses pick up, the only property they care about is, "how much damage is this thing going to do to my pocket?". If you haven't make some money before then and try to keep the price up, you are done as far as market share is concerned. Don't think it matter to Apple though as they have learned to work with a small profitable share, but Microsoft may not have that luxury. That in turn makes Nokia odds not too attractive. > 3) Tablet market will be a war between Apple and M$ - Apple will > remain on top, but the big loser here will be Android, with a possible > under 10% market share. > Really, 10% for Android.

Help With Toshiba Laptop Screen Brightness & CPU Fan
by Michael Marosi 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Hi, I recently installed Fedora 16 on a Toshiba U500 laptop (as a dual boot with Windows 7). However: 1) The CPU fan does not run when in Fedora hence making the laptop overheat (though the fan works fine in Windows). 2) Secondly, I am unable to reduce the brightness of the screen using the keyboard function keys. Would like to know if anyone has encountered such issues before and if so, how they fixed both (i.e. enabling cpu fan and adjusting screen brightness through keyboard function keys)? I have tried the following from online forums: 1) To install the toshiba omnibook drivers. 2) To add the line "echo 10 > /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THZN/polling_frequency" to "/etc/rc.d/rc.local", in order to cause the temperature to be read every 10 secs so I don't have to worry about reading it via an application such as cat in a loop. Neither of the options work, kindly assist. Regards, Michael

Microsoft Windows 8
by Okechukwu 16 Nov '12

16 Nov '12

Hi All, I was at the Microsoft Windows 8 launch last night and I was very impressed, having been an anti-M$ crusader for all this time. I have a few predictions and maybe we have talked about them in this forum, but having seen it I just couldn't help myself: 1) M$ is definitely getting its groove back and will eat a big chunk of what was 'stolen' from it in the desktop market share. The pricing is right and the product is awesome. The may not stop the surge of Apple (maybe am just a fun) but they will readily take back from the UNIX novices (the hardcore will never move) - I see the market share going back into the 90+ percentage (85?) 2) The phone market, I see Nokia having made a very good gamble (+all the vendors who will jump in - Samsung & HTC are here too!) I see Windows phone eating away the market share of Android, though not a lot to make Android crumble, but I see them overtaking Apple on this front (since Apple is still a niche product - may not actually go down, but Android's loss will be M$ gain) 3) Tablet market will be a war between Apple and M$ - Apple will remain on top, but the big loser here will be Android, with a possible under 10% market share. These are my 2 cents. ./Ok3ch

Re: [Skunkworks] Safaricom Mpesa Reversal [OT]
by Ken Teyie 16 Nov '12

Anyone on the list with info on how mpesa reversals work? Still waiting 48 hours for these guys to reverse some cash meant for someone traveling but didn't carry their safcom phone so its off. The Airtel is on. I have even given Safaricom an alternative airtel number to reach the person but they insist they have to call this other Safcom phone for verification, which is okay. Since all phone numbers are registered to the same person, can't Safaricom call the person on the alternative number and Airtel customer service to verify? Safaricom may have a good intention but they shouldn't be this rigid insisting on SIM replacement!! /KT On 11/16/12, Ronnie kilel <ronniekilel(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Am looking for an open source libray system any ideas? > > -- > Thanks > > *Ronnie Kilel* > ronniekilel(a)gmail.com > > > *squeaky wheel gets the grease** > * > -- Sent from my mobile device KT, M: +254 722 28 98 04 www.mondeas.com “When you are busy making excuses, you are not making money, making friends, or making the world a better place.

Boardroom presentation projectors with touch screens
by TheMburu George 15 Nov '12

15 Nov '12

Hi Skunks I need advise on the above solution, in that instead of using the legacy whiteboards and markers which normally you have to erase and cant re-vist the discussions or something you once wrote, I want a setup whereby you can save, recall or revisit a discussion/presentation etc. For instance I would presume having a small touch screen (around 14") where the person heading the discussion writes on, this is projected or connected to a bigger screen for others in the boardroom to see. Now the beauty I want is ability to save this slides, open new, revisit or re-call past slide for reference etc, split or tile the slides for comparison etc and if possible once saved the posiblity to store in relevant or personalized folders or location etc per the name of the project owner, the project being discussed, or even department owners. Rgds ./TheMburu -- Conservatism is the adherence to the old tried against the new untried.

Re: [Skunkworks] Apple Unveils the iPhone 5 with 4-inch Display and LTE
by Martin Gicheru 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Apple did not show any significant change in iphone, mobile is quite important while nothing much happened save for a line of apps on the app drawer thanks to the height increase on the device and LTE ability on quite many bands(I wonder if that would work on our networks -stand corrected) . nothing changed design-wise over the last 3 phones. Apple devices working with each other is not a new thing and the fact that they are speaking about these just shows creativity has come to an end for Apple. -----Original Message----- From: Okechukwu Sent: 13-09-2012, 07:10 To: Skunkworks Mailing List Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] Apple Unveils the iPhone 5 with 4-inch Display and LTE Tim Cook made a very interesting comment on why Apple is the leader: "What places Apple way ahead of the competition is how all these devices work so well together" - This is one comment non-Apple users will never understand, that's why u still looking for the wow factor. Then the website adds: "iPhone5. The biggest thing to happen to iPhone since iPhone" Apparently, Apple strives to beat itself for every successive product. Someone even commented that the iPhone5 is so useless compared to the iPhone6 which will be slimmer, faster & more value!

Not sure any exist. The only card I know that is vlan capable is an Intel Ethernet card. So not a solution, considering most desktop operating systems are not even vlan capable. So your response is warranted Personally, would recommend Ethernet. For such a large office already invested on IP phones, may be too expensive. And support will suck because Cisco hate supporting none Cisco PBX.

Wireless capability on IP phones
by Okechukwu 08 Nov '12

08 Nov '12

Hi All, I currently have VOIP SNOM phones all over the network and the current challenge is that I need to eliminate as much cabling as possible. The two scenarios am exploring are: 1. Buy wireless capable VOIP phones like the Cisco SPA525G2 - Downside is the costs (about USD 250 each) and then what do I do with my over 100 units of the SNOM's? In this am looking for any alternatives which have attractive costs - anyone dealing in this field. please advice. 2. Buy several units of ethernet to wireless adaptors like the Buffallo wireless ethernet converted WLI-TX4-G54HP for every 4 phones I have (close to 20 units required). I need to know if this is the best there are on the market (only 4 ports) or there are any better and cheaper devices. Am also not sure it might work, so anyone with experience please share, and anyone know where I can get one for a demo before I plunge heads first. 3. Any other solution that does not involve me cabling. Am actually rewiring an office with close to 400 people and want to eliminate as much cabling as possible. Any thoughts are welcome! ./Ok3ch

Zuku woes - FYI
by Sham Kanji 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Not sure if anyone is aware. If you upgrade your services with Zuku. I.e. 8mb to 20 Mbps which I did last month. Not seeing the real benefit of spending 6k more for a not significant increase in speeds on international loops, I decided to downgrade today in my renewal period. No contract was signed, also raising the question about contract law. Was told that I can only downgrade after 1 year... So doing the math, I would have to pay an extra 66k to Zuku over the next 11 months. Or, I could take 66k and find some creative options which I do anyway since I have never had a single week go by with Zuku where services don't go down. Forcing me by default to be creative, dual wan, multiple ISPs and all that. Oh we'll, after almost 5 years with Zuku. It's time for a divorce.

*Startimes local channels*

Hi Good People, Forgive me if this appears like a double post, but there was a previous post about Startimes. I wanted to find out if one would still be able to access local channels when one's subscription expires. It was posted a few months ago and 'early adopters' were still waiting for their subscriptions to expire in order to respond whether local channels would be accessible. Anyone? Thanks in advance. KR, Joseph.

Web based Document Management System needed
by Timothy Yegon 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

Hi , A friend is looking for a web based document tracking and management system. Briefly, the system is supposed to track the flow of documents between system users and notify them on the assignment of documents and on how long to work on them. Once this period is over and the document has not been worked on, the system is to generate a notification to the users supervisor and the document flow originator on the lapse of the working period for the document. There is also a requirement for 3 months support after installation and two training aspects, technical and end user. Training should be billed per trainee. Please send me your proposals if interested. Regards, Tim

Fwd: [Internet Policy] NEWS RELEASE: Internet Society Anticipates Strong Participation in Seventh Annual Internet Governance Forum
by Barrack Otieno 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Constance Bommelaer <bommelaer(a)isoc.org> Date: Mon, Nov 5, 2012 at 11:02 PM Subject: [Internet Policy] NEWS RELEASE: Internet Society Anticipates Strong Participation in Seventh Annual Internet Governance Forum To: internetpolicy(a)elists.isoc.org Internet Society Anticipates Strong Participation in Seventh Annual Internet Governance Forum [Baku, Azerbaijan – 05 November 2012] – The Internet Society announced its substantial participation in the annual meeting of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Baku, Azerbaijan, 6-9 November. The IGF is one of the major outcomes of the United Nations World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) and, since 2006, has brought together various stakeholder groups to discuss and shape public policy issues related to Internet governance. More than 1,500 representatives from the private sector, civil society, Internet community, and international nongovernmental and intergovernmental organizations are expected to participate in the forum. The theme of this year’s IGF is “Internet Governance for Sustainable Human, Economic, and Social Development.” From its early beginnings to its massive worldwide expansion over the past two decades, the Internet has grown from a research project to a central communication, social, and economic hub for more than two billion people. This year’s IGF theme offers a timely opportunity to reflect on the characteristics that have been central to the Internet’s success and its sustainability. The Internet Society has been actively involved in all previous IGFs and will be hosting and participating in a broad range of programs and activities during this IGF. Some of the Internet Society activities at the IGF in Baku include: * Pre-event session on Enhanced Cooperation and Internet Governance, co-organized with ICC-BASIS and the Association of Progressive Communications; * Opening session speech from Lynn St. Amour, President and Chief Executive Officer, Internet Society; * Moderating, organizing, and participating in multiple programs and sessions by Internet Society staff on critical topics such as Privacy, Human Rights, the International Telecommunication Regulations, DNSSEC, Digital Content, and Capacity Building; * Leading the closing session with a synthesis of the forum and discussion on principles and frameworks for the IGF; * Hosting 12 new and five returning IGF Ambassadors to attend the forum and participate in the sessions and workshops; and * Presenting two new reports on national Internet governance arrangements. Commenting on the IGF, Lynn St. Amour noted, “The work and the collaboration that occurs in the IGF is extremely important. The IGF has demonstrated the value of multi-stakeholder dialogue to sustain the Internet’s unmatched contribution to growth, innovation, and social development. The UN’s WSIS process clearly recognized this when they determined the IGF should be constituted as a neutral, non-duplicative, and non-binding process. We all look forward to another successful IGF.” For more details on the Internet Society’s involvement at IGF, visit http://www.internetsociety.org/internet-society-igf-2012-guide and http://www.internetsociety.org/igf/2012-internet-governance-forum/igf-2012-… http://www.internetsociety.org/news/internet-society-anticipates-strong-par… _______________________________________________ To manage your ISOC subscriptions or unsubscribe, please log into the ISOC Member Portal: https://portal.isoc.org/ Then choose Interests & Subscriptions from the My Account menu. -- Barrack O.
