Faster access Google Service with the Command Line

Sometimes I get complaints from friends, that they have difficulty in accessing google google docs or any other service. And the answer I give is always the same, namely: the problem is on their Internet connection. For email service you can use basic HTML mode, while for other services you may be able to use the Command Line to access more quickly. How do I? follow the steps below.

This time I try to use Mac OS X.



     * Entrance to the terminal "command + space" type terminal.
     * On the laptop you have already installed python, if it does not follow these 
        steps:
           o create a new directory from the terminal: $ mkdir ~ / source /
           o enter into such foder: $ cd ~ / source
           o run this script: $ curl -0 http://gdata-python-client.googlecode.com/files
              /gdata-2.0.10.tar.gz (download)
           o extract tar it with: $ tar xzvf gdata-2.0.10.tar.gz

 




o Go into the directory: $ cd gdata-2.0.10
           o Then install with the command: $ sudo python setup.py install
     * Next Install google command line:
           o download from here: $ curl -0 http://googlecl.googlecode.com/files/googlecl-0.9.5.tar.gz
           o extract tar it with: $ tar xzvf googlecl-0.9.5.tar.gz
           o Go into the directory: $ cd googlecl-0.9.5.tar.gz
           o Then install with the command: $ sudo python setup.py install

Done, you can access Google via the command line commands from the computer, which of course is much faster because it does not display the UI that takes a lot of resources.

Now try to access the google command line, how like the following:
entrance to the terminal, or command prompt if you use Windows OS

> google

> help

to see what you can do this via the command line google

for example, to view your calendar

> calendar list

add event to your calendar

> calendar add "Lunch with the client tomorrow afternoon"

to mengakiri command line

> quit

or upload photos to picasa, post your draft article to bloggers and others

in the process, you will be asked for authorization can you allow through your service google account settings.



Well, to moving around with google speed Internet service should not be malasah anymore right? good luck  !

Symantec informed about the situation of spam and phishing in March, in which Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC) have the volume increase for the first time since August last year. The volume of spam daily average increased by 8.7 percent in February compared with the previous month. Overall, spam accounts for 80.65 percent of all email in that month, compared with 79.55 percent in January (28 / 3).
 
 
Symantec also observed a mass phishing attacks in February on a famous brand credit card services. There are URLs in the attacks which are all protected using Secure Socket Layer (SSL). To make a phishing site that uses SSL, phishers have to make a fake SSL certificate or original certificate attack to get the encryption on the site. 
Symantec observed that phishing sites that use SSL are very few, in a kind of assault, carrying more than 100 phishing URLs that use a fake SSL certificate. Attackers do so by providing a phishing site on a single IP address is broken down into a number of domain names. SSL certificate with the date of issuance in 2006 and ended in 2007 was not valid, but the main motive of the phishers create sites appear legitimate and convincing users that the site is safe.






Phishing sites are fake a name credit card services, which target customers from Switzerland and phishing pages using the French language. Users are asked to provide login credentials of a famous brand of e-commerce. There, phishers attempt to gather confidential information from these two brands with the same phishing attacks. This phishing site hosted on a server located in California, USA.

Here, users are asked to enter your name, date of birth, address, email and passwords of e-commerce brands, and the birth mother's middle name. The second step asks banking data including bank name, bank ID, the card owner's name, card type, card number, personal code, the card end date, and CVV number. After entering personal information, phishing sites redirect to a blank web page. If users become victims of a phishing site, the phishers will successfully steal their information to obtain financial gain.
Symantec provides some tips for users to be more careful in doing various activities in cyberspace, such as the following:

       filtering in your entire organization, such as Symantec Brightmail messaging

       computer.
