Beginning RSS and Atom Programming

RSS and Atom are specifications that give users the power to subscribe to information they want to receive and give content developers tools to provide continuous subscriptions to willing recipients in a spam-free setting. RSS and Atom are the technical power behind the growing millions of blogs on the Web. Blogs change the Web from a set of static pages or sites requiring programming expertise to update to an ever changing, constantly updated landscape that anyone can contribute to. RSS and Atom syndication provides users an easy way to track new information on as many Web sites as they want. This book offers you insight to understanding the issues facing the user community so you can meet users' needs by writing software and Web sites using RSS and Atom feeds.

Beginning with an introduction to all the current and coming versions of RSS and Atom, you'll go step by step through the process of producing, aggregating, and storing information feeds. When you're finished, you'll be able to produce client software and Web sites that create, manipulate, aggregate, and display information feeds effectively.

Privacy Defended: Protecting Yourself Online

Publisher: Que; 1st edition
Language: English
ISBN: 078972605X
Paperback: 640 pages
Data: February 8, 2002
Format: CHM
Description: Lots of books have to do with computer and network security, which is to say they explain how to protect your files and other resources from malicious characters. Privacy Defended has more to do with protecting Internet users from themselves. The team of authors makes it clear that Internet entities (mainly commercial interests, though miscellaneous troublemakers fall into this category as well) have tremendous interest in finding out as many details as possible about you. This book goes into considerable depth on the technologies (such as browser cookies) and social engineering techniques (such as contests whose entry forms solicit your e-mail address) that have evolved to circumvent the inherently anonymous nature of the Internet.
Internet users willing to sit down and have a serious look at what this book has to say will be rewarded with a solid understanding of the implications of nearly everything they do online. Readers are, for instance, clued in to the undercover behavior of Netscape SmartDownload (early versions of the software reported your identity and the files you downloaded to a central server) and made to wonder about what other free utilities might be doing. Once they've instilled a bit of paranoia in their readers, the authors offer advice on securing typical home computers (and networks of them) against attack. They compare and contrast commercial products for this purpose, and go into helpful detail on the characteristic risks of cable modems and other broadband links.

Real World Linux Security (2nd Edition)

Linux is a solid operating system. It is easy to use and install, has very powerful capabilities, runs fast on almost any hardware, and rarely crashes. It has few bugs and its widespread support from a cast of thousands ensures that any remaining bugs get fixed as soon as they are discovered. It is highly versatile and can be made as secure as any UNIX system.

Unfortunately, UNIX and Linux machines are broken into every day, not because they are inherently insecure, but because the steps required to expose a system to the real world safely-the modern Internet-are not always so obvious. The single goal of this book is to teach any Linux or UNIX system administrator how to secure his systems, keep them secure, and feel confident that all necessary steps have been taken.

The Definitive Guide to Apache Mod_Rewrite

Mod_rewrite, frequently called the “Swiss Army Knife” of URL manipulation, is one of the most popular—and least understood—modules in the Apache Web Server’s bag of tricks. In this chapter we’ll discuss what it is, why it’s necessary, and the basics of using it. For many people, mod_rewrite rules, and regular expressions in general, are magical incantations that they mutter over their website to make it do wondrous things. If the results are not quite what they wanted, they’ll add a pinch of this and a smidgen of that, in the hopes that doing so will nudge it in the right direction.

The goal of this book is to assist you in moving to a place where crafting a rewrite rule set is a scientific process, with predictable results. You’ll know what difference a particular change will make, and you’ll be able to determine, by reading a rule that has been handed to you, what it will do or why it’s not doing what it’s supposed to do.

While many books spend the first chapter telling you lots of stuff you already know, I’ll try to get past that as quickly as possible. In this chapter, we’re going to discuss the basics of mod_rewrite and why you’d want to use it, as well as some of the alternatives to mod_rewrite. This latter topic can also be thought of as “when not to use mod_rewrite.”

Many of the issues that mod_rewrite addresses could be much better solved some other way. Thus, many of the “How do I use mod_rewrite to do X?” questions will be answered with “You don’t use mod_rewrite to do that; you use something else.”
