Abstract:
Email existed before the Internet was invented, and grew with the Internet over six orders of magnitude. Email has gone from serving a small community of highly technical colleagues to being ubiquitous, even for people who are not technically adept. It has changed from a tiny, no-profit service to a billion dollar business.
But email has not gone without growing pains. Spam, viruses, and phishing are just two examples of malware that didn’t even exist when email was born. Email has changed both business and social lives in ways both good and bad. Some of those pressures have pushed users from email to Instant Messaging and Social Networking. Today the research and development of email has focused on control, either “on the wire” (anti-spam, data loss prevention, etc.) or directly for the user (such as mobile access or managing information overload).
This talk covers the history of email and reviews where we are today, including current technologies such as email authentication (DKIM and SenderID) and reputation. It concludes with some personal speculation about how email will continue to grow both short- and long-term.

Google Internet Summit 2009: The State of the Internet
May 5, 2009
Google Internet Summit 2009 Internet Standards Session. Panelists include Zaheda Bhorat,Tony Rutkowski, John Klensin, Tina Dam, Erik Kline.
On May 5 and 6, 2009, in Mountain View, we brought together Googlers and leaders from academia and the corporate world for a 2-day summit to discuss the state of the global Internet. The goal of the summit was to collect a wide range of knowledge to inform Google’s future plans–from product development and market reach to users’ expectations and our ability to keep the Internet open yet secure.
More than 30 speakers and moderators led discussions around 8 topics: Networks; Wireless and Sensor Technologies; Security; Standards; Applications; Democracy, Law, Policy and Regulation; Search and Cloud Computing; and The Future. Eric Schmidt, who offered some remarks, expressed optimism that the challenges we face with governments’ walling off access to the Internet can be overcome technologically by building networks that are transparent, scalable, and open.

Welcome to The Daily Stock Report…brought to you by QualityStocks.Net, performance tracked daily.
I’m Cathy Rankin and for Monday May 21st we’re bringing you the latest news from around the markets as well as the top movers to look out for today…
(HEADLINE NEWS)
In Headline News Today…
A day after taking a breather, the bulls returned Friday fully rested and ready to silence the bears yet again with another upward surge into the record books. The Dow closed at another new high, its 24th record this year, while the S&P 500 finished at its best level in 6 1/2 years and within five points of its all-time closing high. All 10 economic sectors finished positive.
The bulls’ was established early in the session when a preliminary read on consumer sentiment unexpectedly rose for the first time in four months. More M&A news, though, and anticipation of another merger-filled Monday, were the driving factors behind the broad-based move that forced sellers to the sidelines going into the weekend.
Reports that General Electric (GE 36.91 +0.38) is nearing a deal to sell its plastics division for roughly $11 bln was the first, noteworthy item to hit the wires
The second item, the bigger M&A driver was word from Microsoft that it will acquire aQuantive for $6 bln or $66.50 per share in cash. That marked a huge premium to AQNT’s closing price on Thursday and it underscored the liquidity factor that continues to provide a floor of support in this market
Some upbeat analyst commentary provided an added boost of optimism. Intel a suggested holding in the Briefing.com Active Portfolio, and Verizon Communications were upgraded. Fellow Dow component IBM hit a new multi-year high after UBS raised its price target on the stock to $124.
The performance of those three components, along with GE’s 1.0% gain and Exxon Mobil’s surge to an all-time high, even as oil prices closed flat, accounted for more than half of the Dow’s 79-point gain.
And now for our Small Cap News… brought to you by Hybrid Technologies, Inc. (HYBT.OB)
Hybrid is a development stage company who engages in the development and marketing of electric powered vehicles and products in the United States.
…Some of the movers and shakers we’ll be watching this week,
Dot VN Inc. announced that Dr. Mai Liem Truc has joined the Company’s Strategic Advisory Board. Dr. Truc will assist the Company with strategic planning for future growth and implementation of key projects. The company also announced last month the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with Quang Trung Software City Development Company to build out a 20,000 square foot Internet Data Center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
This will become the largest software park in Vietnam. The company also reported that the number of .VN domain names registered online by Dot VN increased 143% for the first quarter of 2007. The .VN is the Vietnamese equivalent of .com, which the company plans to register and promote .VN domain names worldwide.
Dot VN Inc. opens today at $2.48 a share
BioStem, Inc. had a nice week, getting a boost on the anticipation of the company’s planned acquisition of Cryobanks International, Inc. (CII) which reports state is progressing to its final stages. The Merger, which is contingent upon Cryobanks raising at least $9,000,000 pursuant to a private placement, has been extended to March 31, 2007.
If the financing successfully closes, this will put Cryobanks substantially over the $9,000,000 financing condition, and BioStem and Cryobanks will immediately proceed to close the merger.
BioStem, Inc. specializes in the collection, processing, and banking of stem cells derived from the umbilical cord immediately after birth.
BioStem, Inc. opens their week at $2.01 cents a share

National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRCs), members are community organizations nationwide working to promote fair and equal access to credit, capital and banking services for all communities and populations. NCRC supports and empowers its members to be effective leaders and representatives in their own communities and engages them in support of national legislative initiatives.
Since its founding in 1990, NCRC has built a membership composed of over 600 organizations nationwide. I could not find a list of the members of the NCRC
These organizations represent community development corporations, civil rights groups, local and state government agencies, and religious institutions. They range from large national nonprofit organizations to concerned individuals, but most are local nonprofit groups based in communities of color and lower income neighborhoods. These groups offer a variety of programs, including small business micro-lending, housing development, community organizing, rural land loss and more. They have held town meetings and rallied up membership. I did not see any of these rallies being held in California. Speaking of California, everyone in California should be aware of the fact that they will NOT be receiving their state income tax; however they will receive an IOU. I have a question, can we the taxpayers charge the state interest and penalties on the money they will hold? I think its fair to charge the state the same rates they charge citizens who owe state taxes. I think that the fact that the state of California plans to issue IOUs to its citizens is absolutely outrageous.
There is one good thing the NCRC is doing it has Filed a Civil Rights Complaint against Standard & Poors. Civil penalties and equitable relief sought for consumers and communities injured by rating agencys role in foreclosure crisis
There is no legitimate business OR PERSONAL justification for discriminatory conduct. It is against the law.
NCRC – Use TARP Funds Immediately to Address Foreclosures
The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) is a program of the United States government to purchase assets and equity from financial institutions in order to strengthen the financial sector. It is the largest component of the government’s measures in 2008 to address the subprime mortgage crisis. This is the name of Paulsons rescue plan. It is a 110-page financial bailout bill and is available on the Internet
In testimony before the United States House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services, the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) today proposed that remaining Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP) funds be used to establish a national loan modification program to purchase 3-5 million home loans using the power of eminent domain. Arresting the foreclosure crisis, which is the root cause of the current financial crisis, and its contagion effects, will begin the process of repairing the economy and stabilizing the turbulent financial markets.
Faced with intense scrutiny from taxpayers and Capitol Hill about its spending habits in recent weeks, the New York City-based bank issued its first quarterly progress report on its spending of funds from the government’s Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP.
Lawmakers and taxpayers have accused banks of using much of the TARP money to fund acquisitions, pay lavish bonuses or other seemingly frivolous expenses.
Former WAMU/JPMORGAN Chase. soon to be known as Chase Bank, sent out a letters stating they would honor certain other WAMU customers accounts. A couple of weeks later I heard from someone that their account/card was closed. When he called he bank he was told to pay on the card and the balance of the ACCOUNT WOULD be refunded. Im sorry I have a problem for something I cannot use. Three weeks letter I received the balance in my account. Humm.is this indicative of what these banks that merge are going to do to clear liabilities from their books? I dont see how these kinds of accounts hurt the bottom line; however I will consult some experts.
In a final analysis, I would like to say that if you keep doing the same thing, you are bound to get the same results. If you want something different to happen, then do something different.

Following images may be shocking and even more embarrassing for the do-gooders of terror, saviors of the victim industry, defence experts, and politicians who continued to cuddle the tigers while unleashing abominable lies against their very own country.
Those who enjoyed making lucrative business, routine foreign tours while seeking years of asylum in the Western countries sanitizing a terrorist cause may be extremely disturbed by the unraveling dark corners of Prabhakaran’s deeva life style.
Had the Army failed to bring the LTTE terrorists down to its knees, these images which revealed the duplicity of its terror leader Prabhakaran would never have come to the public domain.
The pictures are damaging in a sense that they had exposed the true life of a man who had always pretended to have experienced innumerable hardships in their separatist cause. But the pictures tell a different story. Here a man who had deceived his people and turned thousands of young men and women to butchers and caused death and destruction on a massive scale while enjoying the company of his family.
The people had to struggle to make ends meet while LTTE leaders enjoyed the unbelievable luxury of having a swim in high security zones set up in the Wanni East in the midst of fighting. Had they been aware of the lifestyle of their so-called ‘liberator’ who was nothing more than a glorified bandit, they would have banished him before the Army fought its way into the last LTTE stronghold – a thin ribbon of coastal land in the Mullaittivu District.
The photographs of P’Karan, his wife Madivadini, children and some of his top ‘commander’ bare evidence of the luxurious life they had led as thousands of forcibly recruited children were thrown into battle. While, the recovery of millions of USD worth militrya hardware bared the extent of the LTTE overseas procurement network, the photographs of a smiling psyco shed light on the life of the man and his chief followers.
While, denying the tamil speaking people of the Northern and Eastern provinces even the basic facilities in the name of waging a liberation struggle, the gang of baby-faced killers and their families had lived a life of luxury. The funds raised by the overseas extremist Tamils for the acquisition of armaments, too have been definitely utilized by the LTTe leadership for their personal use.
The ‘uniformed’ men serving Prabakara’s family and he wearing a camouflaged uniform with a beret similar to the one warn by troops deployed under the UN command revealed the mentality of a demented Prabakaran who cleverly exploited the weakness of his people, the extremist overseas Tamils and an international community to his advantage.
The bottom line is that the well-fed LTTE leader had never experienced the true horrors of war. Although LTTE propagandists had propagated the lie that every big battle was spearheaded by Prabakaran, the man seemed to have lived a cushy life. Had the LTTE terrorists had a half chance to destroy evidence of Prabakaran’s duplicity as it rapidly retreated on the Wanni front before being surrounded by the Army on the Mullaittivu coast, a one-time hunting ground of the LTTE, Prabakaran would have done it.
Had anyone felt that Prabakaran was their man to lead the Sri Lankan Tamils, this was irrefutable evidence that he was nothing more than a fraud. The People, especially the Tamil speaking people should be grateful to the armed forces for exposing Prabakaran thereby unceremoniously ending a life of deception.

YouTube’s current headquarters in San Bruno, California.
YouTube was founded by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Jawed Karim, who were all early employees of PayPal.[4] Hurley studied design at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, while Chen and Karim studied computer science together at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.[5]
According to a story that has often been repeated in the media, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen developed the idea for YouTube during the early months of 2005, after they had experienced difficulty sharing videos that had been shot at a dinner party at Chen’s apartment in San Francisco. Jawed Karim did not attend the party and denied that it had occurred, and Chad Hurley commented that the idea that YouTube was founded after a dinner party “was probably very strengthened by marketing ideas around creating a story that was very digestible.”[6]
YouTube began as a venture-funded technology startup, primarily from a US$11.5 million investment by Sequoia Capital between November 2005 and April 2006.[7] YouTube’s early headquarters were situated above a pizzeria and Japanese restaurant in San Mateo, California.[8] The domain name www.youtube.com was activated on February 15, 2005, and the website was developed over the subsequent months.[9] The first YouTube video was entitled Me at the zoo, and shows founder Jawed Karim at San Diego Zoo.[10] The video was uploaded on April 23, 2005, and can still be viewed on the site.[11]
YouTube offered the public a beta test of the site in May 2005, six months before the official launch in November 2005. The site grew rapidly, and in July 2006 the company announced that more than 65,000 new videos were being uploaded every day, and that the site was receiving 100 million video views per day.[12] According to data published by market research company comScore, YouTube is the dominant provider of online video in the United States, with a market share of around 43 percent and more than six billion videos viewed in January 2009.[13] It is estimated that 20 hours of new videos are uploaded to the site every minute, and that around three quarters of the material comes from outside the United States.[14][15] It is also estimated that in 2007 YouTube consumed as much bandwidth as the entire Internet in 2000.[16] In March 2008, YouTube’s bandwidth costs were estimated at approximately US$1 million a day.[17] Alexa ranks YouTube as the fourth most visited website on the Internet, behind Google, Yahoo! and Facebook.[18]
The choice of the name www.youtube.com led to problems for a similarly named website, www.utube.com. The owner of the site, Universal Tube & Rollform Equipment, filed a lawsuit against YouTube in November 2006 after being overloaded on a regular basis by people looking for YouTube. Universal Tube has since changed the name of its website to www.utubeonline.com.[19][20]
In October 2006, Google Inc. announced that it had acquired YouTube for US$1.65 billion in Google stock, and the deal was finalized on November 13, 2006.[21] Google does not provide detailed figures for YouTube’s running costs, and YouTube’s revenues in 2007 were noted as “not material” in a regulatory filing.[17] In June 2008 a Forbes magazine article projected the 2008 revenue at US$200 million, noting progress in advertising sales.[22]
In November 2008, YouTube reached an agreement with MGM, Lions Gate Entertainment and CBS which will allow the companies to post full-length films and television shows on the site, accompanied by advertisements. The move is intended to create competition with websites such as Hulu, which features material from NBC, Fox, and Disney.[23][24]
On October 9, 2009, the third anniversary of the acquisition by Google, Chad Hurley announced in a blog posting that YouTube was serving “well over a billion views a
