I am wondering if I can apply for Trademarks for my "KING.NET" domain name. I am using KING.NET obviously as my main blog, to transact business in various ways from IT Consulting, Domain Name Management, Content Management System (CMS) management, Email Services, provide Howto Guide and other IT-related online services.Domain name owners frequently open their mail to find a letter from a law firm representing a trademark owner. These letters - called “cease and desist letters” by lawyers - demand that the domain name owner stop using the domain name, transfer the domain name to the trademark owner, and provide information about the dates of use and money made from the use of the domain name."

If you are looking to lower your cost maintaining and managing your company email here's a list of alternative email servers out there.

My primary use of iPhone is to read my company emails, personal email address and other emails through Exchange Server 2003/2007 active sync and IMAP (here's my previous post, setting up email in iPhone). The games, music, surfing NET, etc. are just add-on for this cool gadget mobile phone.

I read and respond to all customers inquiry wherever I am and ofcourse I can make the necessary network administration tasks while I'm out of the office.

I will introduce you two remote management tools to manage your Windows and Linux Server. I personally and highly recommend that you buy these tools.

For Windows Server Remote Desktop tool, I am currently using WinAdmin released by Carter Harrison LLC. Using this tool, I can easily connect to my windows servers and perform the necessary server administrations. As of this date, it is currently on sale for only $7.99 to download.

Well if you're managing Linux servers. I recommend TouchTerm SSH released by Aji LLC. I am using this tool to manage my dedicated linux servers. Very easy to use SSH tool to connect to your linux server. The best of all it will only cost you $0.99 to download.

I know there are some advance tools available in Apple Apps Store, there are so many of them and I can't test them all. If you are using different Network Admin tools and would like to share with us, please don't hesitate to post your comments or send me email so I can post it here.

Enjoy reading.

UPDATE: I email the support @iphonewinadmin.com regarding WinAdmin security encryption, because of admin privileges concern. Here's the answer direct from Carter.

"Hi Emil,

Thanks for your email. WinAdmin uses 128 bit encryption on the RDP layer. This is also known as 'high security' in windows Server 2003 or 2008. This is a standard encryption protocol for RDP and is currently the highest level of encryption available for an iPhone RDP client. I appreciate your article on WinAdmin and if you have any other questions, I'm here to help.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Carter"

Just like other webmasters or publishers, you want to put up your own Privacy Policy to inform your visitor when they browse to your website. For corporate business, they have a legal department to create one for them easy. What about if you are an entrepreneurs or a small business owner managing your ecommerce website?

If you are looking to address your business Risk Management Concept Flow, read the Common Criteria of Information Technology Security Evaluation published September 2006.

Based on these random interview, you still have a shot to do business in domain name industry. A lot of opportunity to introduce the domain name as business tool to increase productivity.

"What do regular folks think of the domain industry and domainers? Howard Hits The Street to find out as he grabs a microphone and camera and strolls Las Olas Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale, Florida" (2009, Youtube.com)

GoDaddy.com is one of the cheapest domain name registration out there. I registered some domain names from GoDaddy, if not from NeedName.com website. I even bought Hostage.TV

Let's all take a break in posting articles and learn the basic of swine flu virus. I have no idea so I went surfing the Internet to get some information and found this from CNN website.

Just like me, I know you would like to know more about the Web 3.0 features and advancement that it will bring to your website. I know Google will adapt this changes to their platform so I guess I'm ok for now.

This is to inform our readers that we are now updating our Twitter account at http://www.twitter.com/kingnet or http://t.king.net/ (or using shorten link http://sm.tv/1l). You should be able to see new articles posted in http://www.king.net/ and in our Twitter account. I think the Twitterfeed takes 30 minutes to update our page.

I'm planning to buy my own Netbook, just like you confuse where to get one or which one is better.

I have a basic requirements for my netbook, as listed below:

• at low PRICE as possible.
• at least 1GB memory. The 2 or 4 Gb memory will be nice but the price will go up.
• at least 80Gb hard disk. Harddisk is cheap so this will not be a problem.
• with Wireless and RJ-45 connector
• CD/DVD optional but it would be great to have it built-in. The Panasonic CF-w4 or w5 comes with built-in DVD and they still manage to make it small. The price is not within my budget.

Here's a good Netbook comparison I've found from cnet.co.uk website. Check it before you decide to buy.

Leave us your feedback. Thank you.

I was reading this article from eWeek this morning and I would like to share this to IT Consultants and other-related consulting business that the CyberSecurity Act 2009 will might change the way they do business. I hope for the better.

Text of S.773 as Introduced in Senate
Cybersecurity Act of 2009
"A bill to ensure the continued free flow of commerce within the United States and with its global trading partners through secure cyber communications, to provide for the continued development and exploitation of the Internet and intranet communications for such purposes, to provide for the development of a cadre of information technology specialists to improve and maintain effective cybersecurity defenses against disruption, and for other purposes." (2009, OpenCongress.org)

I like Section 7. Licensing and Certification of Cybersecurity Professional. This enforce the mandatory licensing as a provider of cybersecurity services. This will help us easily justify the continuing education for IT Consultants.

The Section 13. Cybersecurity competition and challenge. Their main objective is to attract, identity, evaluate, and recruit talented individuals for the Federal information technology workforce and stimulate innovation in vasic and applied cybersecurity research, technology development and prototype demostration that have the potential for application to the Federal information technology activities of the Federal Government. At this time, there is no check list of what types of competitions and challenges for the contest. The Director will establish different competition and targeting High school students, Undergraduate, Graduate, Academic and research institutions.

The Defcon (yearly black hat security conference) is providing a variety of contest in cybersecurity such as Capture the Flag, Defcon Bots, Defcon Shoot formerly known as Wardriving contest with my team won 1st place, read the article at Wardrive.com, and other technology-related contest.

You may also visit SANS.org for other security information, training and papers written by security minded professionals.

Early this morning I'm working with one of our laptop in the office. It's been a while since the last time I've used the docking station for a laptop. Before I go on with my story, let me give you a link about docking station so you know what I'm referring to.

So I place my Dell Latitude D410 in the docking station to test the DVD drive. When I about to remove it, I have no idea how to get it done. I focus on pushing the button in the left side of the docking station but no success. I told myself, I don't need a brain surgery to figure this out.

Well, 10 minutes later I'm still looking a way to get it done. Hmm, search the Internet for information but most links I've clicked are all about Dell specifications and promotional links. This is the reason I wrote this blog, to help other techie out there to get the answer right away.

To find the answer of my own. I've used my hands to slide on all sides and viola. I've found the un-latch lever that nicely blend on the docking station of Dell laptop. You will be able to see it left upper-corner of the docking station if you are facing your computer.

Hope this help you save your 10 minutes looking for this information through the Internet.
Cheers for now.
