This topology contains 1 switch and 4 end devices, 1 of the 4 end devices is a console device, here any configuration can be made. Other 3 devices are connected to the Fast Ethernet.

Here are the name of the devices labeled.

Figure 2
Add 2 more End devices (PC), on this topology, here PC4 & PC5 as shown in Figure 2(b)
Assign IP to every end devices, here I have shown how to assign IP to PC4. Assign IP to all the devices (PC1, PC2, PC3, P5 - 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3, 10.0.0.5) respectively.
As Shown in figure 2(c)

Switch(config-if)#switchport port-security max 2
Switch(config-if)#switchport port-security violation shutdown
Switch(config-if)#exit

Shown In Figure 4


Ping any of the connected devices, and now remove the wire between PC2 and Switch,
Connect 'Copper Straight Through' wire from switch 'Fast Ethernet' to PC4 'fastethernet 0/2'.

and now remove the wire between PC4 and Switch, Connect 'Copper Straight Through' wire from switch 'Fast Ethernet' to PC5 'fastethernet 0/2'.

Again Ping any of the device again. Ping will be 'Request Timed Out' Wire between PC5 and switch got red marks on it, that shows that 'Shutdown' is successful. Shown in Figure 5.

9 Micro-Blogging Tools

I have been a fan of Blogging since August 2009. As I have faced many learning skills, activities in the field of Blogging so I have now been watching that the term microblogging is spreading all around the World as a light speed. Once again I got in the search of MicroBlogging keeping Blogging at another side.
First of all I'll discuss a little about Micro-Blogging and then mention the 9 MicroBlogging tools.

Article Disclaimer


Views which are expressed below in this article are generally accumulated from published material from internet especially from white papers and Wikipedia.

Micro-Blogging

This is how Wikipedia describes:-
A form of blogging that allows users to write brief text updates (usually less than 200 characters) and publish them, either to be viewed by anyone or by a restricted group which can be chosenby the user

Microblogging Is a form of multimedia blogging that allows users to send brief text updates or micromedia such as photos or audio clips and publish them, either to be viewed by anyone or by a restricted group which can be chosen by the user. These messages can be submitted ba a variety of means, including text messaging, instant messaging, Email, digital audio or the web. The content of microblog differs from a traditional blog in that it is typically smaller in actual size and aggregate file size. A single entry could consist of a single sentence or fragment or an image or a brief, ten second video. But, still its purpose is similar to that of a traditional blog. Users do microblogging about particular topics that can range from the simple, such as ' What one is doing at given moment,' to the thematic topics, such as sports cars, to business topics, such as promotion of products. Many Microblogs provide short commentry on a person to person level, share news about a company's products and services, or provide logs of the events of one's life.


Now coming up to the topic,


9 Micro-Blogging Tools

Twitter
Twitter is the key player in space and the company name is used synonymously with microblogging. The free service allows users to post status updates via SMS, Email, or Web Browser. What's more. Twitter has an open platform allowing third party developers to build on top of it.

Tumblr
Tumblr is very clean, slick microblogging platform. Its focus is on somplicity and elegance. Similar to Pownce (I'll mention Pownce later), users can share a variety of things, including text photos, quotes, links, chats, or even videos.

MoodMill
MoodMill is a way to express your mood or current state of being. A sliding scale faciliates this process, while a quick text update completes the personalized service.

Pownce
Pownce launched microblogging platform with added functionality. On top of messaging, users can quickly and easily share links, files, or events with any or all of his/her contacts. See Pownce itself for more details

MySay
May say is what it says, instead of text updates, users can call MySay and say how they are doing today. Then, friends or family can listen via phone, Email or the Web.

Hictu
Hictu is a service for video microbloggers. A webcam and a mouse click are all that is needed to create a videopost. This streamlined solution saves time and effort for traditional bloggers.


Frazr
Frazr is also very similar to Twitter. The main difference is one of language. Frazr is focused primarily on the French and German Markets.

IRateMyDay
IRateMyDay allows you the ability to (Yes, you guessed it) rate your day on a scale of 'Worst' to 'Great.' Users can also provide a short text update to accompany the rating.


So these were the 9 Micro-Blogging platform, I know that I have not explained in detail, the reason is all microblogging tools have mostly same type of features.

Entrepreneur Henry Ford


He is one of the entrepreneurs who inspired me a lot by his work.
The entrepreneurs behind the ideas realized that there was a problem that no one else was solving. They then went ahead and created a solution for it, and gave it to everyone who was searching for that solution, and in the process, made a fortune.


Henry Ford, one of the richest men to ever
walk this earth. He realized that people wanted to have an
affordable way of travel. So what did he do?
He pioneered the mass production industry and created a giant car production company. Because the cars were mass
produced, Henry Ford could buy raw materials and labour in
bulk at deep discounts, and could pass those savings onto the average Joe Blog (pun not intended) on the street.
They loved him for it, and the evidence is shown in how successful the Ford Motor Company became.
