Good Web Sites

Today, I'd like to introduce my favorite wed site.
Firstly, I want to introduce JAPANESE FIREWORKS. This web site provides us with information about Japanese fireworks. Summer is the season of fireworks in Japan, so there are many fireworks displays. We can learn about fireworks in this web site before going to fireworks displays. And we can get schedule of fireworks. However, schedule of 2007 still hasn’t been updated.
Next, I introduce OGASAWARA－RYU web site. Ogasawara-ryu is one old way of kyudo, Japanese archery. In this site, we can learn about history and many ritual ceremonies of Japanese archery. Also, we can get a lot of wallpaper.
Finally, I show YOURDICTIONARY.COM. This wed site tells us information of many dictionaries. And we can use same online dictionaries in this site.

What is “Social Engineering”?

Social Engineering is a way to get secret information such as passwords by taking advantage of carelessness. Social Engineering mainly uses narrative or peeping. They are “social” techniques. Social Engineering usually does not use electronic techniques. The original meaning of this word is an act getting a password unjustly without direct damage to the computer by using a computer virus or spyware and accessing the computer.

The ways of social engineering which is often used are as follows:

• Calling by using false name such as a director or a big customer, and then asking about password or important information.
• Looking a memo pad which says password and memorizing it.
• Using a hard disk inside the dumped computer.
• Using unjust software.

Macintosh

I had heard a word, “Mac” some times, but I didn’t know about it well. Almost all friends of mine use the Windows, and of course I use the Windows, too.
I got information about Mac after coming to Tokyo and starting new life. Firstly, I heard about Mac in classes of computer. I learn about basic things. And then, I heard about Mac from my coworker of my part-time job. He is 37years old, so he had used an old type computer until appearance of Mac. But he hasn’t used Windows. He doesn’t know how to use MS Word or Excel. However, he is familiar with Mac. He had worked in a company of design before. He told me that Mac is useful especially for design. He often teach me usefulness of Mac. I don’t do design, but I’m interested Mac because I heard many things about Mac.

My First Blog

This is my first blog post. And I would like to write about my experience of a computer. I often use computers. I have been using the Internet since my junior high school days. Also, I use computers for assignment of college now. Computers are very useful. However, sometimes I become to hate computers. Computers sometimes freeze. When my junior high school days, I often used the Internet. But the computer of my family’s always froze when I use the Internet. I didn't know causes. And I’m not good at computer, so I often make a mistake. Furthermore, sometimes I come not to fix my mistake. Maybe I have pushed something wrong key, but I don’t notice that. So I couldn't do my assignment or something. The system of computer is difficult. I couldn't use computers well now, but I want to be good at computers in my future. I have to practice more.
