The scam you need to be aware which is asking you to secure your .cn domain names

Internet_Scam Today I received an email forwarded by one of my co-workers. In this email, the sender said he is from a China-based domain name register company, and basically he asked for a confirmation whether they should dispute a registration of some domain names similar as our TLD name.

First of all, our Post master told me that it looks like a phish asking for the confirmation so that they can sell our email addresses. But I called the phone number listed in this email, surprised I got an answer and confirmed that this is a real company and doing real domain name business. Later on, with Google search, we found out this is an old scam on the INTERNET. So I post the original email here and hope it can help you if you receive the similar email too. (I edited some information with xxxx to protect the privacy)

How to jump directly to the rest of the post when you create expandable summaries in Blogger

blogger.jpg A while ago I wrote a post to explain how to create expandable summaries in classic template and layouts. With this trick, you can choose to display an arbitrary amount of text from the beginning of each post, as a teaser for the whole thing. Then users who want to read the rest of the post can click a link to see the full text. This is handy if you have lots of long articles all on one page. Note that you’ll need to have post pages enabled in order to make this feature work.

How to display different sidebar titles in blogger classic template

blogger.jpgI am using the classic blogger template to write some of my Chinese blogs. Since I could not use the default English titles for my sidebar, I had to make translations. But sometimes the Chinese words could not represent the real meaning of English titles very well, especially the same title appears on Main or Archive and Item pages. For example, I had to use “最近文章” and “更早文章” for “Previous Posts” in different types of pages.
