• It’s growing fast: Two-thirds of the developed-world’s Internet population visit a social network or blogging site and the sector now accounts for almost 10% of all internet time. ‘Member communities’ (social networking and blogging) has overtaken personal Email to become the world’s fourth most popular online sector after search, portals and software applications. Time spent on social network and blogging sites is growing at over three times the rate of overall Internet-usage growth, and in most countries the percentage of Internet time spent on social networks has doubled
• It’s going global: ‘Member Communities’ has taken a foothold in every major market from 50% of the online population in Switzerland and Germany to 80% in Brazil. Facebook has become the largest player on the global stage, dominant in many countries, yet localized offerings have won the day in many others.
• It’s growing up: Reflecting the other data we’ve seen here recently, Facebook’s greatest growth in global audience numbers as come from ages 35-49 and also enjoyed strong growth from the 50-64 segment.

NowPublic is a participatory news network which mobilizes an army of reporters to cover the events that define our world. The company has become one of the fastest growing news organizations with thousands of reporters in over 140 countries. During Hurricane Katrina, NowPublic had more reporters in the affected area than most news organizations have on their entire staff. In 2007, TIME Magazine named NowPublic one of the 50 Coolest Websites and in 2009, the site was nominated for an Emmy for Advanced Technology.

CakePHP and CodeIgniter are quite similar in their approach on a number of things, including their support for PHP4. Any mention of one inevitably leads to someone mentioning the other.

They both attempt to create an MVC architecture which simply means they separate the (data) Model from the Controller (which pulls data from the model to give to the view) from the View (what the user sees).

They both use Routing which takes a URL and maps it to a particular function within a controller (CakePHP calls these actions). CodeIgniter supports regular expressions for routing, whereas you’ll have to wait until CakePHP 1.2 for that feature. Correction: CakePHP 1.1 supports regular expression for routing but it’s not detailed in the manual and is getting updated in 1.2.

They both support Scaffolding which is an automated way of generating a view based on the model. Scaffolding is meant for simple prototyping and CodeIgniter takes it a step further by requiring a keyword in the URL to even access the scaffolding. I’m guessing one could omit the keyword, leaving this feature essentially optional. I prefer not to have to use the keyword as I sometimes build personal projects not intended for public eyes and using a keyword would be a nuisance.

And the list goes on…

Approach to Simplicity

I believe much of CodeIgniter’s appeal is its simplicity in its approach. Most of the work is done in the controller, loading in libraries, getting data from the model, and pulling in the view. Everything is in plain sight and you can really see how things work.

CakePHP’s simplicity comes via automation (euphemistically referred to as “automagic”). It makes the coding process quicker but harder to figure out “what is going on” without popping your head into the core. For me, I like to understand how everything works and I’ve had to poke around under the hood more than once. For people just getting started, things probably look a little daunting.

Working with Models

CodeIgniter’s model handling is fairly straightfoward and basically allows you to mimic a standard SQL query with a few straightforward commands like these examples:

$query = $this->db->getwhere('mytable', array(id => $id), $limit, $offset);

$this->db->select('title')->from('mytable')->where('id', $id)->limit(10, 20);
$query = $this->db->get();

Note: the method chaining in the second part of this example is only available in PHP5.

You can also create a model object, load it in and build custom methods to handle a custom task. You’d want to do this in the model and not the controller to help isolate code into the MVC silos.

CakePHP takes a slightly different route by automatically loading in the model that matches the current controller (controllers tend to be named similarly to the models they are associated with). You can turn off this automated loading and even assign different models that should be loaded by the controller instead.

CakePHP also takes things further by establishing all the model associations for you, allowing for some really easy querying. For example, assuming I’m in a controller named post_controller, I could do the following:

$this->Post->Comment->findAllByPostId($id)

I chose this particular query because it shows two different concepts. The first is the fact that I can access the Comment model via the Post model (assuming I’ve defined that association in the Post model). The second is the fact that I have a method called findAllByPostId. CakePHP allows records to be grabbed via findByX and findAllByX queries where X is equal to the field name you’re trying to find.

Where I think Cake shines is in its ability to pull in all associated data automatically. Take the following query as an example:

$this->Post->findById($id)

This query would automatically pull in all the comments associated with this Post. Really handy stuff.

Validation

When working with models, you’ll inevitably have to handle data validation. Data validation in CodeIgniter is handled via a validation class. A set of rules get defined and assigned to the validation object. The validation object automatically (I assume) validates the data passed via the URL or form. From there, you can decide how that gets handled. The validation class can also help automate some of the process of setting error messages for specific fields.

CakePHP handles its validation through the model itself in one of two ways. The first uses a single test against each field defined in a validate variable declared in the model. This works okay for simple stuff but it quickly becomes a cumbrance. Beyond simple validation, I take advantage of the beforeSave callback to perform any custom validation, invalidating any fields that fail.

It’s a toss up for me as to which one “wins”. CakePHP 1.2 will have its validation system reworked a bit to allow for more flexibility.

Views

CakePHP handles this fairly well by using a default layout (which you can easily switch at runtime). The layout has two variables be default: title_for_layout and content_for_layout. Each action automatically links to a particular view which gets spat into place. Again, it’s the “automagic” approach. As long as you name your files a specific way, controllers automatically get linked to models and views. It’s easy enough to override all of this, too, and define your own layouts or view files. There’s no convenient way to get the generated view data, however, making custom built caching mechanisms difficult to implement.

CodeIgniter takes a very straightforward approach: like include files, almost. Each file gets loaded in and processed. There’s a templating class but it doesn’t simplify things much beyond the built-in view handling. You can mimic the CakePHP approach by always including the header and footer calls but it’s not as seamless. CodeIgniter offers hooks allowing view and caching mechanisms to be overridden and replaced with a custom system.

Out of the Box Features

CodeIgniter in my mind wins this hands down with classes for FTP, Email, File Uploading, XMLRPC, Zip encoding and more.

CakePHP on the flip side comes pretty light but tries to make up for it using the Bakery. You can, like CodeIgniter, easily drop in 3rd party classes for any features you might need. Interestingly, although I haven’t tried it, you could probably drop in many of the CI classes into CakePHP without issue.

Auto-loading

CakePHP allows for application-wide changes to be done via the base application controller that all other controllers inherit from. Likewise, you can create global model methods using the application model file. However, you can fine tune things at the controller level using any of the controller-level callbacks (beforeFilter, afterFilter and beforeRender). Things like auto-loading helpers and components can also be specified easily at the individual controller level.

CodeIgniter allows for the auto-loading of helpers, libraries and plugins but does this application-wide.

Documentation

Documentation is key to understanding any framework well enough to develop within it.

CodeIgniter has a complete list of all components with each method and property documented within. CI also has forums and a wiki which feature a lot of user-submitted code.

CakePHP, on the other hand, isn’t as well organized. The manual is starting to show its age with some sections not really going much beyond what the API offers. Because of the format of the original documentation, you can also get it in other formats such as CHM and PDF. CakePHP has the Bakery which contains user-submitted articles, components, etc. The dev team also hangs out heavily on the IRC channel (#cakephp at irc.freenode.net). Finally, there’s the CakePHP Google Group which is pretty active.

Final Verdict

I’m a pretty pragmatic individual and I honestly feel that these two frameworks have a lot going for them. They take a much simpler approach to application development than the complexity that is something like Symfony.

I’m still personally a fan of CakePHP over CodeIgniter for much of the “automagic” that I mentioned. And it’s shortcomings have been getting addressed with each new iteration (1.2 will be a considerable leap over 1.1 but it will still be awhile before it’s released).

Notes

This comparison was based on the documentation for CodeIgniter 1.5.2 and having used CakePHP 1.1. I have specifically avoided the subject of performance due to the amount of time required to design, develop and test such a thing.

I use this every time I need to find one individual song (even though you aren’t going to find real obscure music on here, it can be useful) or if a family member needs help getting something on their mp3 player. Much better than downloading some bloated crap like Limewire or Frostwire.

As a result, the site will not only let users help each other get the homework done as many other sites do, but it will also empower them to network with fellow students who share the very same aptitudes, skills and overall will to push forwards.

As in any other community site, those who interact here can share stories and anecdotes in order to break the ice more directly, whereas it is also possible to upload educational videos in order to illuminate others more vividly.

Summing up, quite a good way for young minds to start down the path of academic excellence. They have quite a journey ahead, and anything that lets them start it with the right baggage is innately valuable.

If you’d like to try it out, first register a new account. Then, on the public timeline, enter your message into the textbox at the top of the page, and click “Send”. It will go out on the public timeline and to anyone who is subscribed to your notices (probably nobody, at first).

To subscribe to other people’s notifications, go to their profile page and click the “subscribe” button. They’ll get a notice that you’re now subscribed to their notifications, and, who knows?, they might subscribe back.

Idea Powers is a microblogging network. Microblogging is a popular method of communication on the Internet. Through microblogs, consumers exchange short messages and thereby share interesting content. In addition, Idea Powers texts, attaches links, videos, pictures and other files to your messages.

Submitting content to the site is not that different from submitting anything to a site like Digg, only that in this case you log in using your Twitter credentials. You also have to give a title to your story, and add some details to place it all into context. A category must likewise be chosen from the several on offer, and these mirror the structure of social sharing sites quite closely.

Upon complying with that, your story will be posted to Twitter and submitted to your own StumbleUpon page at the very same time. It will also make it to the TweetRl homepage if it becomes popular enough. Best of all, every story that you relocate like this will carry your own Google Ads, so that you will drive traffic to your site and make an income at the same time.

Cloud hosting, also commonly referred to as cloud computing, is an alternative delivery model for IT services over the Internet. The “cloud” is typically a network or cluster of servers that is designed to easily scale business applications to where the user only pays for the resources they use, and has largely become the primary advantage for cloud hosting. This works well for many businesses, including start-ups who may not be able to afford dedicated hosting or managed hosting services initially. Now there is a way where they can easily scale as their users scale with the applications.

Cloud Hosting in Plain English

This video is brought to you by Common Craft and explains how cloud hosting works.

Other Benefits of Cloud Hosting

In addition to scalability and cost, cloud hosting benefits from agility where users can rapidly and inexpensively deploy new technology on the server, such as operating system upgrades, database upgrades and more. Another benefit is reliability with the inherent redundancy that is built into a cloud hosting network. With your web applications replicated on multiple servers, it becomes attractive for companies needing a disaster recovery plan.

Then get reality back, and commit social media suicide with Web2.0 Suicide Machine.

The Dutch website created by your unfriendly neighbourhood medialab moddr_ is designed to end users’ social lives on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and LinkedIn in a spectacular way.

No, users don’t just delete their account. The website makes a feast out of the decision as it shows you how it unfriends person after person on Facebook, or removes bit by bit the people you follow on Twitter.

We all know that social media were never meant to replace social life, but their purpose was to make it richer. However, now that the initial euphoria about social media is over, people are starting to use them more effectively or are stopping using them at all.

To commit social media suicide you only need to select the social network on the website, enter the user name and your password. You even can send out your last words, which are displayed alongside your profile picture on a memorial page that Suicide Machine maintains.

The project seems to be quite successful. Since its launch in December, 56,243 friends have been unfriended, 202,386 tweets have been removed and 856 people quit their online lives, according to Suicide Machine’s figures as of today.

But Facebook didn’t see the funny side of the site. The social network, which has just announced it has 350 million members, started to prevent its use by blocking Suicide Machine’s IP address yesterday, thus making it impossible to use the website to unfriend people.

In a statement the social media platform said: “Web 2.0 Suicide Machine collects login credentials and scrapes Facebook pages, which are violations of our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. We’ve blocked the site’s access to Facebook as is our policy for sites that violate our SRR.”

The crew behind Suicide Machine aka the WORM artist collective in Rotterdam try to find a way to work around the problem. Last week Facebook shut down Seppukoo, a service that enabled users to automate the process of deleting their profile.

So while Suicide Machine works well with Twitter, LinkedIn and MySpace, the only option for Facebook is at the moment to die hard.

• people who have great (babbaal) inter conectivity have no problem using godaddy, coz it takes too much of time to load home page ( I am a Nepal based )
• yes, problem in changing nameserver , Duh “a fatal error”
• And Yes your Hosting panel really suckss
• You suck these days!

Yes i use name.com to register domain names.

• they have a great admin side for domain management
• Cheap Domains
• Free Private whois
• Free google Apps
• Easy Domain transfer

Name.com domain registrar is one of the cheapest domain registrars on the Internet. As far as I know, It’s the cheapest for .com TLD domain registrations at just $7.99 an year (it was $5.99 upto a couple of days back until all the domain registrars upped the prices because of the increase in ICANN fee or something), .net TLD is $5.89 a year, .org is $7.99 a year, .us is also $7.99 and it offers many more TLDs.

Their website used to be down for a couple of times a day. But these days everything seems OK. With every domain registration they give you free private Whois, Google apps (I think with the help of Google Apps sponsorship, they are able to provide domain registrations at the cheap rate they are offering right now), free email with every domain, free custom start page, free webpage creator. I like their bulk domain checking tool. I was kind of doubtful when I first saw their prices. But after registering a couple of domains with them, now everything seems fine. Some people say their support is (or used to be) a little bad. But I never had to contact them for any kind of support. I have yet to have experience with their support guys.

And I hear Name.com, Name.net and Domainsite are all sister companies. They give their contact No. and contact email address right at the top of their home page. So far, I am pretty much satisfied with them and their free features. I hope this domain registrar doesn’t turn to be another RegisterFly.com (I say that keeping their low prices in mind). Of course, we can never expect which domain registrar is going to be another scam or fraud. Try Name.com domain registrar if you haven’t tried them yet.

You dont need to search whois of my domain , i am planin to transfer this domain to name.com

Good Luck with your Name
