Breaking down the Great Firewall...
No, this isn't a clever campaign to start a world movement to get rid of the Great Firewall and liberate China's netizens. With the arrival of the 2008 Olympic games in Beijing, it seems that this would be an appropriate time to focus on The Great Firewall of China, or the Golden Shield Project (as it is officially known). The Golden Shield is a censorship and surveillance program run by China's Ministry of Public Service. While the Chinese government has been using the Great Firewall to censor and block websites in China since 2003, many of us do not have a full understanding of the Golden Shield Project and its intricacies. This article is not meant to start a revolution against the Chinese government to bring down the Great Firewall, but a means to gain a better understanding of something that many Americans and Europeans have little knowledge about--Internet censorship using GSP.
While most Americans and Europeans do have the right to choose what sites they visit and surf the Internet freely (again the keyword is "most"), other countries' citizens are stifled by government censorship of the Internet. In China any site that expresses opposing views or states a negative opinion of the government is banned. Not only will the site be banned, but the authors may face criminal charges and a lengthy prison sentence. While many sites have recently been unblocked by the Chinese government because of the Beijing Olympics, many other sites including, pro-democracy advocates, Taiwanese government and media, and blog sites are still banned. The idea of having privacy rights or any type of Internet privacy is a concept that many Chinese citizens have little understanding of.
The concept of the Great Firewall started in 1998 and began operating in 2003. The need for the GSP stemmed from Communist regimes fearing that the Chinese Democracy Party would develop an extensive and powerful network that couldn't be controlled. The GSP acts as a firewall (hence the nickname) and blocks content based on IP addresses and a massive database of banned websites. The IPs are banned and prevented from gaining access to blocked content basically by using a proxy server the opposite way we would use it (think: reverse proxy). GSP combines IP filtering with DNS poisoning to maintain control over the Internet in China.
Along with IP blocking, URL-, DNS-, and Packet-filtering, the GSP has a unique characteristic: it doesn't just ban sites based on these methods, but also bans websites based on the content. This blog would be banned instantly because it shows methods for gaining access to "forbidden sites," but also any content that is considered subversive by the government would be subject to banishment (this means any pro-democracy, pro-Tibet, and pro-anything else the Chinese government is against).
The final point that has been brought about because of the Great Firewall is self-censorship. While sites that should be banned do slip through the cracks, many Chinese citizens end up practicing self-censorship and not visiting these sites anyway. It makes perfect sense: Just because the site hasn't been banned yet, is it still okay to look at? Why take that chance and end up in prison like many Chinese bloggers do? The thought that you are being watched by the Golden Shield Project even if the site is allowed on the network is a mighty force...people tend to act differently when their bosses, or the authorities, are paying attention.

world wide web anniversary
Again i copied and pasted this article from BBC,technology category because web sites surfing is so so important to all of us and it is truely even part of our daily life style to keep in touch with outside world in so convenient ways from where we are.
So let me honor the founder Sir Tim Berners Lee from here by putting his story and achievement.
Web founder looks to big changes
Mobile phone Web access will benefit the developing world, says Sir Tim
The founder of the World Wide Web says the pace of innovation on the web is increasing all the time.
Marking the 20th anniversary of his proposal to create the web, Sir Tim Berners-Lee said "new changes are going to rock the world even more".
The future of the web lies in mobile phones, he said at the research centre in Switzerland where he was working when he proposed the web.
He also warned of user profiling on the internet and the risks of "snooping".
Sir Tim was working at the Cern nuclear research centre, near Geneva, in March 1989 when he proposed to his colleagues a hypertext database with text links that would help scientists around the world share information quickly.
His supervisor described the proposal as "vague, but exciting" and the next year Sir Tim wrote the software that allowed users access to information on the already-existing internet.
In developing countries it's going to be exciting because [mobile phones are] the only way that a lot of people will actually get to see the internet at all
Sir Tim Berners-Lee
Speaking to the BBC's technology correspondent Rory Cellan Jones, Sir Tim credited scientists around the world with helping to build the web.
"Creative people all over the planet started to get involved and I'd get these random e-mails from people in different fields and different countries who decided the web would be a good idea if everybody did it, so they would do it."
'Tip of iceberg'
As director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) that guides the web's development, Sir Tim said much more was to come.
"The web is not all done, it's just the tip of the iceberg... I'm convinced that the new changes are going to rock the world even more," he said at the 20th anniversary celebrations at Cern.
Mobile phones would form a key part of the web's future, he said.
"In developing countries it's going to be exciting because that is the only way that a lot of people will actually get to see the internet at all."
But he also sounded a warning about the emergence of systems that can automatically track a web user's habits and create a detailed profile of the person.
"That sort of snooping is really important to avoid," he said.
Google has become the latest firm to launch a system to send advertisements to web users based on their online activities.

Disclaimer : These are not my rankings, they’ve been conducted by relatively high authority institutions that have their own special methodology and way of calculating university rankings. If you have something to say about the methodology, I suggest contacting them. If you have something to say about Asian academics – this would be a good place to discuss it. This list is simply provided as a service that attempts to give a general overview of academics in Asia and their rankings in the world.

Disclaimer : These are not my rankings, they’ve been conducted by relatively high authority institutions that have their own special methodology and way of calculating university rankings. If you have something to say about the methodology, I suggest contacting them. If you have something to say about Asian academics – this would be a good place to discuss it. This list is simply provided as a service that attempts to give a general overview of academics in Asia and their rankings in the world.
