Why Google+ Will Fail.

Google has already ensured the failure of their Google+ project because of one very vital flaw - branding. Perception is everything, and the branding 'experts' at Googleplex don't seem to get that.

Google is perceived as a search-engine and they cannot possibly change that. FaceBook is a social-network and you can't change that too. Google+ will fail for the same reasons Facebook Mail will fail - both line extended products in fortified teritories. At the most, they'll only achieve lukewarm results.

The Ultimate Price.

Google's project might sound reasonable, but it actually sounds as reasonable as launching an "Indomie Spagheti", or a "Coca-Cola Beer" or a "Milo Milk". In the short term, they might seem to make a little progress with the new line extensions, however, it's the Google brand that will pay the ultimate price. Look at what is happening to Yahoo (Google is a search-engine, Facebook is a social network what is Yahoo? - news, email, autos, health, blablabla?). Google is trying to line-extend themselves to death.

Odunnu:
Aside having your pictures and facebook page in their original report, SR havent gone against the law.
I've never taken SR serious moreso when I know they hate myGEJ so badly and are so anti-progress.
Ask them to pull down your pictures and that would be it.
Dem don use style take draw traffic to that useless site.Atleast Odunnu visited that site.

This should also serve as a lesson to you and others who add people you know nothing about as friends on fbk.

Classic.

You need an INVITE, to be able to use Google Plus, YET. So, if you're not important you cannot use it.

BTW, I have an invite.

Nigerian man arrested at LAX on stowaway charges

A Nigerian man was arrested on stowaway charges for flying from New York to Los Angeles International Airport with an expired boarding pass that belonged to someone else, the FBI said today.

Olajide Oluwaseun Noibi, 24, was carrying at least 10 other airline tickets that didn't belong to him when he was arrested while trying to board a flight from LAX to Atlanta early Wednesday morning, according to an affidavit written by Kevin Hogg, an FBI special agent assigned to the airport.

Noibi faces a felony charge of being a stowaway, which could lead to a five-year prison term, Hogg wrote. He has not been charged with any other crimes.

Noibi is being held without bail and is scheduled to appear Friday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for July 13, while arraignment is set for July 18.

Among other things, the FBI is investigating how Noibi managed to get past airport security using a ticket that did not match the name on his University of Michigan student identification card, or how he obtained so many boarding passes.

Noibi told authorities that he used an expired airline ticket that was in someone else's name to board Virgin America Flight 415 from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport to LAX on June 23.

The FBI were tipped off June 25 by an airport police dispatcher and the plane's captain, who said Noibi was not on the flight manifest, Hogg wrote.

After interviewing the flight's

crew, Hogg said that the flight had already taken off when when Noibi was spotted in a seat that was supposed to be empty. When a flight attendant asked him for a boarding pass, Noibi handed over a ticket that had expired a day earlier and did not belong to him, Hogg wrote.
Noibi told the flight attendant he had missed his flight on the date displayed on the ticket.

The flight attendant then asked Noibi for identification and he handed over the student ID card bearing his real name. The ticket and identification card were taken to the captain, Joseph Groff, who noticed the name didn't match.

Noibi then slept for most of the flight, said Patricia Condon, a spokeswoman for Virgin America.

The crew kept him under surveillance, "but at no time felt there was any threat to the security of the flight," Condon said.

Virgin America is cooperating with the FBI to determine how Noibi passed airport screening and boarded the flight, Condon said.

The person whose name was on the Virgin America ticket, identified only as "M.D." in the affidavit, told the FBI that he printed the pass at home, placed it in his back pocket and took a subway to the airport.

After arriving at JFK, the man noticed he didn't have the ticket and got a new boarding pass from an airline kiosk. M.D. told the FBI that he did not know Noibi.

It was unclear why Noibi was not arrested after the nonstop, overnight flight arrived at LAX on June 24.

However, Noibi was detained Wednesday when he tried to board Delta Flight 46 from LAX to Atlanta while using another expired boarding pass at the departure gate, Hogg wrote.

Noibi told authorities that he was cleared by security screeners Tuesday and spent the night inside Terminal 5. Noibi then went to the departure gate around 6 a.m. Wednesday and told a Delta employee that he missed his flight on Tuesday.

Even though he said he could go to the gate, the Delta employee "told Noibi no twice and Noibi kept trying to hand her the boarding pass," Hogg wrote.

Authorities then approached Noibi, who said he did not pay for the Virgin America ticket that he used from LAX to New York and that he didn't have any money.

Noibi also said that he was in Los Angeles to recruit people for his software business, but didn't know anyone locally.

Asked if he had any other boarding passes, Noibi reached for his back pocket and pulled out two tickets that didn't belong to him, according to the FBI affidavit. After searching his two bags, authorities found "over 10 boarding passes in various individuals' names," Hogg wrote.

Noibi also told authorities that he was going back to Nigeria on July 7, then returning to the United States on Sept. 9 with a ticket he already purchased through Virgin Atlantic.

The Transportation Security Administration did not say whether passenger screening would be intensified or if tickets will be more closely scrutinized during the Fourth of July holiday weekend. Federal authorities have previously said that Independence Day was a potential terrorist target date after al-Qaida leader Osama bin-Laden was killed.

"Every passenger that passes through security checkpoints is subject to many layers of security including thorough physical screening at the checkpoint," TSA spokesman Nico Melendez said in a written statement.

"TSA's review of this matter indicates that the passenger went through screening," Melendez said. "It is important to note that this passenger was subject to the same physical screening at the checkpoint as other passengers."

And the power gradually, shifts from USA to China.

Using war/force works in the short run. It won't last.

wtf is this vconnect?

^^ Good answer. You're a correct mod.

First download the JRE and JDK.
Next learn from a J2ME programming ebook.
Next get a domain.
Finally, consult me.

It important to note the meaning of what you mean by Hacking before you land yourself into a big trouble. Be warned!!!

Stop talking shit jare.

If you really want to harness the full power of www.google.com to get accurate result in your search.
You need to learn Google hacking here is a free and tutorial on Google hacking visit www.blog.cogent-concept.com

Using uncommon operators in search queries isn't "hacking". Stop deceiving yourself.

How did you bypass twitters api rate request limit using REST api -JSON? Are you using the stream api? Are you on the whitelist?

@Babe. Where did you get your facts from. I'm a teen, a far more active one at that.

More to come.
BTW, this is the ugliest website ever. http://yvettesbridalformal.com/
Slyrox do your job.

1 - Right Click Disabled
What's the real work of that function? To disable right click on webpages? It doesn't protect you from anything, infact it even motivates people to view your source and bypass any idiotic javascript protection you have on that page. Well some developers are smarter than that, while others are completely dull/dumb/ridiculous to even use it. In addition its the easiest thing to do.

Culprits :: http://jamb.org.ng/Unifiedtme/ and PM NEWS (Don't know whether they've stopped that shlt)

2 - Fugly Websites
Almost every Nigerian website you see is poorly graphically and css-ically designed. They are very UGLY!!! I think they're just lazy developers.
I'd advise them to learn some AJAX to make their sites fine small.

Culprits :: Every domain *.com.ng  

3 - Whitespace
It's good to minimize the amount of whitespace in your source code on production servers. Some nigerian developers even put comments in their production pages,  .
The lesser the whitespace you have the faster your pages load! Take nairaland for example a page with just 1 reply has 200 lines of code with each <div> tag taken ONE LINE  . Lets do the math. Lets say you have 31/32 replies (limit of posts for a page) checking from a page of 32 comments its like 1600 lines of code, the size in a txt document is 132 kb  if you remove whitespace, it halves it, thats 66kb of whitespace per page view. some pages reach 1,000 views.
Still multiply that by 66kb, thats 6MB of whitespace wasted on a page of 1,000 views .
Its wasteful.

That is all, for now. 

It could load even faster.

Dolemite:
BlueJ?

Haha. Thats like a poodle when compared to Netbeans.

Eclipse.

Google doesn't even recognize netbeans,  they are more eclipse-intensive, check out some of their Application programming interfaces.

Dude that's totally untrue, where did you get that? All the GSM providers have less than stellar bandwidth services not just MTN.

MTN places stellar charges on silly bandwidth/data.

If this was in a reasonable country, sanctions would have been placed a long time ago. Crap.

Jakumo:
Well hey, what the phuck, if the ancient Romans lined up around the block to see lions eat gladiators for lunch, then why can't Nigerians enjoy the peaceful spectacle of mechanical lions ploughing into bystanders whose understanding of vector dynamics is evidently non-existent ?

I propose that a point system could be adopted for the Abuja Kamikaze Rally, such that cars which neutralize the most spectators get a bravery award for doing what in other circumstances would earn those wild drivers a grisly, fatal mob beating.   Furthermore, I move for the adoption of a resolution that will confer all collision victims with the posthumous status of heroes for democracy.

To make this bowling-for-pedestrians contest just a little more South Central in flavor, perhaps judges could authorize the issuance of sidearms to drivers at this august event, so they can also be evaluated on the basis of drive-by marksmanship, style and panache, rather than simply by body-count.

Phucking Classic.
I love this guy.

Power has eaten deep into people's hearts that they don't reason again. A common citizen telling the GCFRN who and who not to nominate. He's an ldiot.
