I see you...hopefully

Yep, I just added some script to my blog so I can hopefully not only see how many people see this, but where they're from. Good stuff.

Thank you GVisit. This is a site that, when you put a line of script on your webpage, records visitors ip addresses through javascript and then locates the place where the ip came from. Then logs it and puts a marker on a site you can look at to see who all is looking at it. It's very effective in my opinion, or at least for the site's it's been used with, but since I just now added it to my blog I wonder if it'll work or not. Well, it's worth a try. :-)

College is going good for me and plus I have a lot of spare time now where I'm on campus so I get to play around on their computers. Fun, Fun. If they only knew how insecure it was. This is a major problem with universitys of today. They are growing to the point to which EVERYTHING is digital and there are no hard records. This means a skilled individual could get access to an administrator account, which is very easy, and change his/her grades. There are stories every day of students doing just that. Sad Sad world.

AK's remedy to this situation.
I should really be hired as the head of computer security. Thats first and foremost. Next we're going to make a central computer system in the main building of the school. This computer is going to be unhackable. I know what you're saying, how can you do that...Well first it would be a standalone computer which would not be linked to any other computers on the campus. It wouldn't use a wireless internet connection and infact it would have no internet connection hooked up to it period.

I know what you're saying, "how would the teachers insert grades and such?" I got that covered. The teachers would still have their normal computers but they would be issued a 1gb thumb drive with a certain program on it. Each time they need to input grades into the computer they would put in their thumb drive, insert the grades onto it then at the end of the day they could plug the thumb drive into the main computer and it would update automatically. The students wouldn't have access to any part of the setup that had to do with their grades. There would only be a select few people with the ability to access the main computer and the teachers wouldn't even have to access them. By simply imputing their "update drive" they would give it a moment and it'd be done. Game over, no more for you. The only way someone could hack it now is if they gained physical access to the computer.

The next step is that the main computer system would be running a decent version of linux so it would naturally be cheaper and more secure. I know that my campus' computers could fall prey to a mysql injection attack and it would be all over. Even a bootable version of linux and someone with enough knowledge to use it could do it too. Most Universities have career centers to help you get a job and hold onto a resume for you and all that. This is dangerous because they often have enough knowledge for stealing an identity. Oh well, I guess it's better for me this way, it just takes all the fun out of the chase. When they just hand you all this info it's no fun. You gotta work for what you want.

I don't know why I posted this, I just wasted some time. None the less I hope you enjoyed it.
