Hey Guys & Gals,

Published: January 12, 2010 they talk about a breach in email accounts that focuses on Chinese human rights activists.
Below is a brief excerpt from the email I just received regarding the matter. Don’t forget to check out the link at the bottom of theis article to see whats going on with Google in China.
Google Threatens Pullout From China After E-Mail Accounts Are Hacked
Google threatened to end its operations in China after it discovered that the e-mail accounts of human rights activists had been breached.
The company said it had detected a “highly sophisticated and targeted attack on our corporate infrastructure originating from China.” Google says further investigation revealed that “a primary goal of the attackers was accessing the Gmail accounts of Chinese human rights activists.” Google did not specifically accuse the Chinese government. But the company added that it is “no longer willing to continue censoring our results” on its Chinese search engine, as the government requires. Google says the decision could force it to shut down its Chinese site and its offices in the country.
Until next time..
Blog till your hearts content.

China had alot of guts to be able to infiltrate a U.S. Company. I know that the U.S will be able to prevent additional infilatrations.
Have you ever considered adding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual learner.
Hey Yaro,
I think that’s you. But if it wasn’t, I was considering added for videos related to WordPress and other content management Systems but they are already plastered all over the internet.
And this was a video in the post (lol)
Thanks
Tim
I’ve been trying to subscribe to your rss feed but it’s telling me “XML-RPC not enabled”. Please let me know when it’s fixed. Thanks!
Thank you Alexis or Amanda?
I’ll look into it and see what we can do to fix the problem. When the Upgrade to WordPress 2.9.1 took place it reaked havok on RSS Feeds across many blogs.
Thanks again.

Hello. This is kind of an ?unconventional? question , but have other visitors asked you how get the menu bar to look like you?ve got it? I also have a blog and am really looking to alter around the theme, however am scared to death to mess with it for fear of the search engines punishing me. I am very new to all of this ?so i am just not positive exactly how to try to to it all yet. I?ll just keep working on it one day at a time Thanks for any help you can offer here.
It’s not very difficult to add menu bars to wordpress, a matter of fact this one was very simple to deploy, If you would like to learn how, just let me know and I’ll create a post that will show you how to do it in a step by step fashion. Maybe in a video.
Thanks again for your comment.
