Week 12
week 12 class was good cause we recapped on what had been done in class and i learnt a lot. and it also refreshed a few things and we learnt about what will be done in the assessment and have really enjoyed playing with my webpage and i really want to do more to it.
RSS
Ok an RSS feed is a way of linking a page to yours and having it update little bit's of information, but it only works if the page is able to be updated like blogs or pod casts. it isn't really that hard to work out and you can tell if you can link a page because up in the search bar it will give u a little icon in the right hand side and you just click on that.
A counter helps keep track of how many people have visited your page you can subscribe to these from various sites and you can have different styles of counters as well.
technorati
Technorati
Technorati is a search engine for blogs. a way of saving webpages for future use. they also have other bogs that relate to your blog and rank them on the relevance to you're blog and they also don't rank by how many links to your blog but how many blogs are linked to your blog.eg one blog linked many times only count's as one toward your authority.

FTP
- Passwords and File information are sent in clear text that can be read by others.
- there are multiple TCP/IP Connections used which means firewalls may need some logic and configuration changes to account for the connections.
- It is hard to filter active mode FTP traffic for clients by using firewalls because the client has to open an arbitrary port to receive the connection.
- FTP is a high latency protocal due to the number of commands to start a transfer.
- FTP uses multiple TCP connections which unlike SSH that is hard to tunnel over FTP sets up a new TCP connection at either end which will bypass the SSH connection.
