My changing face 10 years later

As time goes by we see changes in our looks and wonder how we will look when we get really old. I am wondering if I am ageing like a fine wine.
Here I am 12 years ago.

And this is how I look now in September 2011:)

People still recognize me I guess the real time to confess we are ageing rapidly is when people who once knew us go past us in the street as if they never knew us at all.

Google's Unknown Brother

Over the years I’ve considered myself to be Google’s Unknown Brother, one may call it madness he may even say I’m completely foolish to even write such a blog but who cares as this is my blog and I write about what I want to write.

I consider Google to be more than just a search engine but more a like a million combinations of many different assets all under one roof. First of all before Google came about finding information on the web which was actually there was limited. There were several other SearchEngines people like to use Altavista Excite and Yahoo and several others one of the things people found was when they used different search engines different information would appear, however when you used google all the information which appeared from them was available in google and a hell of a lot more which were never showing up in other search engines. In this respect Google became a godsend to me as they found information which was hard to find as well as there was limited information available and the other engines were not picking it up. Lets say for example you were looking for information on how to program smart cards at one point few books were written on this subject however some technical gurus like myself had written information covering some of the subject however were never found in other SearchEngines.

Before the information was ever available on the internet we relied on the local bookshops and libraries for information as they had contacts with other sources worldwide. Today what a shopkeeper can find for us can often be found on the web. The internet has not rendered book shop and libraries useless as they still have information which is available to them before being published anywhere on the internet. I can recall as a child me and my brothers wanting to buy a collection of Enid Blyton books as we were totally in love with here books and thanks to the useful library resources we were able to purchase her full collection.

As the Google’s unknown brother the way I see it is like this, many programmers in this world find satisfaction by doing only half the job as they do not have the ability to progress beyond that point however with Google they are perfectionist, I do not think everything they do is out of this world, for example I think they should allocate a support team to Google Blogger, even if it means a cheap yearly subscription fee. However when they set out to do something, anything will not do, the standard of their work quality is always very high.

When you have a lot of work to complete and wish for that work to be completed successfully without confiding in other people or to give any indication as to what your work objectives are search for information privately is a useful asset, This type of requirement is not only beneficial to the sex starved man or woman who has a filthy mind which he keeps private, but it can also be useful to many others working in different professions. Problem is what if that information is there and we cant find it thanks to the inadequacy of the search engine or the illiterate SEO writer? This is were Google supersede competitors.

I strongly believe that every person in the world with a websites indexed in a Google owes Google some allegiance. If they can be found and are gaining traffic thanks to Google. Google have a strategic method which covers all the text written on your page as well as the phrases or keywords if you like, what this means is the page you’ve written can be found in many different ways which other search engines like MSN and YAHOO fail to do miserably. When Google talked about their intentions for the future, they quoted they are very far off, so what is to come will blow the pants of any man or woman. In fact Google once claimed it would take them 300 years to reach their ultimate objective with their search engine. I think they are so advanced I am sure what is coming will be completely unthinkable:)

I have indulged in some very useful projects which made me a lot of money, in order to do this successfully I needed to find the right people, this was not easy and it took a lot of research. I started out with a plan I was going to find a hundred customers from each search engine, I concluded my list with 1000 places to get in touch with and all the clients which were related and targeted to my subject were all found via a Google search. I’m not saying that you cant find useful information via other search engines what I am saying is overhaul I believes Google is way superior regarding the information it spews out. This is not something people should neglect as many computer owners do not even know of Google’s existence and there is a reason for this. Often when they purchase a computer everything is already set for them and the browser that comes with Windows is Internet Explorer, when you click on this and open it up by default the home page is the MSN search engine. A naïve customer and none computer literate will simply use this and feel it’s the way to go. My sister had a computer for years and did all her searches via MSN it was only when I showed her how Google can wipe the floor with MSN then she switched to using Google. In addition to that I was a computer engineer doing private many corporate computer repairs relating to hardware and software problems and in doing so I repaired over 2000 computers, I can assure you that over half of my customers where using other search engines including Ask and Yahoo and in many cases I was able to educate the client of the magic Google.

My aim as a passionate Googler is to work in a way which helps searches to work in favour of anybody using a search engine. If each person did this and did not try to cheat the system in any way I think search engines would work even better. As mentioned previously I like Google even though things they have done have not worked entirely to my favour. One annoying experience is when they said a blog of mine was spammed they immediately barred the blog and I was unable to access the data without any warning. I had put a lot of work into that blog and sadly I had not backed it up. There is only one way to describe my feeling I was completely pissed off. Reason being the barred my blog relating to one page only, however when they did this I lost interest in the domain and was unwilling to renew it again it also left me feeling a little bit untrusting about google blogger. Generally speaking I think blogger is great, but what worried me is they gave me no further access to the blog and did not explain exactly what was wrong.

Over the years I’ve become a lot wiser in understanding search engines, yet despite what I know now, I still feel I know nothing. In all honesty, the more I see, is the more I know, and more I know, is the less I understand. I feel there is a long road to go as a computer programmer, therefore I constantly update what I do know on a daily basis by dedicating time to reading, understanding, and applying what I learn about google search, I also know my limitations & study hard to to better them.

Google Plus is Superior to Facebook

I am really exited about the new social networking excellent Google Plus In my opinion Google are million light years ahead of any other search engine company on the planet.

At long last they have come up with something which will do everything facebook will do and much more. In addition to that, they also have a large number of very useful software applications which has been designed and programmed by software engineers working for Google.

But don't take my word for it, check out Google Applications for yourself and see how they can be a huge asset to any business in the world big or small or even just working with a few friends irrespective of their location in the world. The Google network just never stops and when you check them out you will realize there is so much going on with Google.

If you have a new business with 10 people and need 10 computers I would suggest diskless clients with one good server, an internet connection and the use of Google applications to run all your office. Facebook are only a social network period, Google has a hell of a lot more to offer.

Its hardly surprising google plus is superior to facebook.

James Toney to Fight Ken Shamrock

The Fight will be on 23rd September 2011
I believe that when veteran Ken Shamrock fights floor with James Toney, he will wipe the floor with him.

Despite the fact Shamrock is not as good as he use to be as an overhaul fighter, he still has the technique which when applied is way superior to any boxer. Adding to that he has proven to be a champion on both levels, as a winner and a loser.

Many people quit once they have been beaten some people have given Shamrock a severe hiding and despite that he is still willing to face the same opponent again for a rematch. I would like Ken Shamrock to beat James Toney, the last time Toney fought a wrestler he took a beating by Randy Couture. Look at the fight:

I do hope that Shamrock quits fighting all together. There is a reason why I say this Shamrock is close to 50 and if he keeps fighting the next thing is he dies. It would be nice to see him 30 or 40 years from now on TV talking about the fight game and not only talking but being in good health. It would be sad to she him end like Muhammad Ali.

Long live a super fighter.

Google always way on top

Have you over considered having your whole office online? Google Apps is for you. If you own a business and you have just started out therefore you have a limited cash flow, buying software applications like MS Office and Windows won’t help you keep your cash flow, however there is a very cheap alternative, you could install one of the numerous Linux Distro’s available and use Google documents. Once you master using their free online service you would be able to have a group of workers working on the same document irrespective of their location.

People need to know Google are not only responsible for the best search engine in the world but they do a string of other things which help has run a business.

Here's my pet hypothesis: A bunch of designers at Google frequently get together and constantly review ways to make their software work in a way that’s its so simple to use that when a new user comes to their applications he could be as dumb as a cow yet when he wants to use their apps it will be as simple as striking a match. Such intelligence incorporated has given Google the leading edge.

Variax JTV-69


If you play the guitar like I do and you(try Variax JTV-69) like the sound of the guitar which your favourite artist uses one of the things which enters your mind is buying a guitar like the one which they own. However the reality is many cases this is beyond the financial reach of most people as they're usually very expensive.

None the less all hope is not lost thanks to Variax JTV-69. Their guitar can sound like most of the most desired guitars all from one guitar so you need only own one variax guitar. That's not all, the best part is the price is simply amazing. For only a fraction of the cost you can get a guitar sound like any guitarist you like like just from owning a variax.

Keep in mind this option is not only available from the JTV-69, even if you buy the cheapest variax guitar, from it you will be able to get the sound of the most popular expensive acoustic and electic guitars.

TIME

As time passes do we really become wiser, more tolerant or less in touch?

Alas, Apache

I had recently been increasing my knowledge with computer books, one of the things which I had been doing is intensifying my PHP and Java scripting understanding as well as increasing my overhaul knowledge of Apache servers. If your into web hosting as well domains and wish to manipulate the way they work in your favour, as well as you feel that you require superior knowledge over your competitors there is one sure way to go about it, and this is to study them in depth. However you must have an agenda with a valued objective in your mind as I have. I like to work my way around Linux Ubuntu or Centeos and apply that understanding to my work infrastructure.

Busted!

Have you had any dealing with the Police? Its easy for them worldwide to find a reason to say Busted!

Articles

I've been going over some of my old school work and during that period I wrote a whole bunch of articles which I have been thinking about putting up at my blog. It would enhance the amount of data I have here as well as increase the variety of topics which I have previously written about.

Podcast Player

I am keen on podcast its a nice way to download of useful recorded information. I recently download a few podcast from k12ltsp.

Tonight!

Tonight I was hoping to engage with a series which me and family all enjoyed watching as a kid Its the TV series called rich man poor man. I have recently finished watching book one which consist of 11 chapters and tonight I wish to start the second series.

Having spending an awful lot of my time in front of a computer screen its nice to turn my thoughts to something which gets me away from it. When well written TV series is an option, it makes the evening worthwhile. I recently enjoyed a movie called The Witches of Eastwick starring Jack Nicholson, Cher, Susan Sarandon, and Michelle Pfeiffer, and I have to say I found it entertaining.

To much negativity is like to much fat in the frying pan. No good for anyone!

Captain Marvel

I first saw this when I was around 8 years old now in my middle ages I often like to watch it again, The 12 chapters of captain marvel has been one of those films which come back to memory very often. I like the choice of actors they used as well as the meaning behind the film. Captain Marvel shows to much power in the wrong hands is a bad thing.
Nice. I strolled around the streets of Warsaw in search for a decent chicken Kebab and I came across a very nice place on Świętokrzyska he is a Polish man, its a small shop next to a hairdresser worth while checking out.
Oops. I almost forgot today is fathers day. Being one myself make me wonder if I have ever kept up with a regular pattern of behaviour regarding it. The reality is I can never recall ever giving my dad a card for that date.

The office staff myth

I’ve passionately taken up an interest in data structure with the intention to minimize the work load which falls on the hands of many companies who have way to many staff doing a job which could be automated. One may say this is taking another persons job away but all businesses want to run at a profit not a loss, understanding that point, my overview of a company could mean reducing the staff and increasing the overhaul yearly profit for any company. When scanners first became popular I had manipulated them in several ways with numerous computer programs making them be a huge assistant to any office in need to electronically digitise all their data. In return this would reduce any worker searching for a ton of files stacked in various shelves which could take a long time to find. Instead the information can be found at your fingertips via a Linux or Microsoft search, or even better Google desktop search. Google are king when it comes to searching, not only on the internet, but also for searching our computer too. In fact Google desktop search is much faster than Windows or Linux search tool by a million light years.

My first hat-trick scored at lyon park junior school

Recollecting scoring my first hat-trick at my primary Lyon Park Junior School is a memory which returned to trace very recently. From time to time I like to go back in life with my thoughts. I can recall the balls we were allowed to play football with in school, they were available in 2 sizes, they were hollow with shapes which had open spaces the idea was that if the ball hit a window it would not break it.

Despite not really having a passion for football I participated in numerous sports during my school days and I was quite good at many of them. It was a good feeling scoring my first hat-trick I was able to do this as I was a very good sprinter within a short distance, therefore hard to catch to tackle once I had the ball. This resulted in me scoring 3 hat-tricks in one game. The balls we played with use to break after a few games and were not much fun to kick around however when they were new they were fun to kick around.

As they were small the ball would move along the ground very quickly and accuracy was needed to control it with your feet. I can recall two teachers from that time, Mr Evans, and the headmaster Mr Moncaster. Long live the memories of my childhood and the those who enabled those happy moments to take place.

mark.mcglashan.eu

After a few years of being at mcglashan.eu I decided I want to have my name mark in the domain I've been shifting locations as I felt undecided about many domains however after giving it careful consideration rather than have a domain here and there with may name in it I feel now I will settle with mark.mcglashan.eu I feel I can accomplish my objectives from this domain alone no problem.

Special thank you to Rick Klau

I wish to say a very personal thank you to Rick Klau, I'm a great admire of your blog, I like the things which you write about, however it came to the point where the only way I could read your website was with a pair of sunglasses. The reason being Mr Klau's website had such unusual bright colours which gave the sun ray effect and reading the pages were like trying to look into the sun without wearing glasses, this was painful for my eyes, however Klau has now addressed the problem. Thanks again:)
