Facebook thinks the security of its users



The problem of computer viruses worries more and more users, concerned that their data is stolen and used illegally. A problem that seems to interest and to which lately seems tobe sensitized even Facebook.
The social network has decided to make shipping safer for its users, making arrangements with the major antivirus vendors like Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro,Sophos and Microsoft. Thanks to social networks so we will have free licenses up to ayear, depending on the product. The decision was made to educate users to the security of your PC and protect users from attack by the Social Spam


Currently, according to industry studies, the content of spam to be infected are only 4% of the data. Surely a small percentage compared to those of the mail which represent 90%.Very interesting initiative by the social created by Mark Zuckerberg, who is about to reach nearly one billion users who want to offer a new and interesting service. A theme, that of security, which in recent times seems to be very interested in the social that had recentlypointed out its appreciation to the Cispa (Cyber
​​-Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act) that could lead government agencies to have better data accuracy and reserved.
Through Joel Kaplan, vice president of public policy in the social, Facebook has defined the Cispa a useful tool to share more information about known and new attacks andthreats to both private individuals to government systems. The Marketplace Antivirus canbe considered the first step toward building a Facebook protection system against virus attacks digital



The success of Android and Microsoft also convinces IOS


It seems that there is no longer any kind of doubt that mobile operating systems that dominate and dominate the market for the next few years will continue to be the operating system of Google and Apple's iPhone OS. To confirm it the latest figures released byIDC, which have revealed how the two systems continue to dominate the global market forsmartphones.

 
According to the report because the two great antagonists represent a good 82% of all shipments in the first quarter of this year. Android would reach as much as 59% with 89.9 million shipped, Apple fights back but with 23% with 35.1 million of IOS devices; distantthird in Symbian 6.8 and RIM still 6.4% of the market. Bad news for Microsoft that seescalara its operating systems and move from 2.6% in the first quarter of 2011 to 2.2% in 2012.
Probably, and this confirms the fact that the future of mobile steps for Android and Applehas convinced Microsoft to create a special site "Office" for the two operating systems.To disseminate the news as the BGR says that according to reliable sources thecompany Gates would be ready to spread their "Office" not only on the iPad d as in the past but there was talk that Apple and other devices on those based on operating systemAndroid. With an app that most likely we will see from the month of November.
Already long ago there was talk of a possible arrival of the more famous programaWindows on Apple tablet but the rumors were quickly denied by both Houses. This time the news appears to be real and in November we will have the option to have Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the major mobile devices.

For all the children here is the return of the Pokemon console



In our review we are concerned to explain the pros and cons of PokéPark 2: The world of desires. The game, as you might guess from the title, is the direct sequel of PokéPark:Pikachu's Adventure, released almost two years ago. Of course the game is inspired by the heroes of so many small children or the Pokemon.

Although the target definitely more childish, PokéPark 2: The world of desires offers a story a little 'more mature than usual. The new adventures of Pikachu looks like a collection of mini-games, introduced by linear phase of exploration and linked by a weak, simple storyline and ephemeral.


The battles are very simple but fans of the series will appreciate the ability to control their heroes in person, instead of giving orders in the shoes of the usual coach. The graphics isvery functional in the game. The three-dimensional graphics has the advantage of helpingthe player to take one more step in the immersion into the world of colorful and cutePokemon. The monsters, in particular, have gained much from the transposition into threedimensions: the animation, the movements and the large range of facial expressionsprovide a degree of Pokemon deeper characterization.
The game does not excel in specific details so as the degree of difficulty is pretty low as a title for the smallest children. The quantity and variety of any Mario Party are short light years away, but there is enough material to make happy users excited by the idea of controlling Pokémon, than any other sources.
