How to hack Facebook / Twitter accounts using firesheep ?

Hacking Facebook/Twitter accounts using Firesheep is one of the easiest methods. The only thing that you need is that the victim should be in the same network that you are in.  Firefox has an add-on called Firesheep designed to show the security holes in sites that don't use encryption for all their traffic, works as advertised. All you want to do is download and install Firesheep first. Then open the Firesheep sidebar and click "Start Capturing." Now you can see the a list of users logged into the Facebook, I double-clicked on it. But the thing is you cant change the password without knowing his/her old password, but you can read their private messages, you have access to his/her personal data, photos and all.

Firesheep uses a packet sniffer to intercept unencrypted cookies from certain websites (such as Facebook and Twitter) as the cookies are transmitted over networks, exploiting session hijacking vulnerabilities.

Worlds first website was published 20 yeas ago!

1991 August 6 , at a CERN facility in the Swiss Alps, when 36-year-old physicist Tim Berners-Lee published the first-ever website. It was, not surprisingly, a pretty basic one — according to CERN:

info.cern.ch was the address of the world’s first-ever web site and web server, running on a NeXT computer at CERN. The first web page address was http://info.cern.ch/hypertext . Visitors could learn more about hypertext, technical details for creating their own webpage, and even an explanation on how to search the Web for information. There are no screenshots of this original page and, in any case, changes were made daily to the information available on the page as the WWW project developed. You may find a later copy (1992) on the World Wide Web Consortium website.

Of course, the only people who actually had web browser software were Berners-Lee and his colleagues at CERN, so the world at large remained almost entirely ignorant of the momentous event that had just taken place. Gradually installations of web servers and the use of web browsers spread, but it really wasn’t until 1993, when the Mosaic browser was released, that the technology really achieved serious momentum.

In 1994, Berners-Lee founded the World Wide Web Consortium (often referred to as “W3C”) at MIT in order to create standards for the web to ensure that different websites would all work the same way. Berners-Lee, now 56, is still the director of the W3C, in addition to several other positions he holds. While there are and surely always will be some deviations from the standards by many websites and browsers, it’s not a stretch to say that the web as we know it would probably not exist if not for the W3C’s guidance.

It can be hard now, even for many of us who regularly used the Internet before there was a World Wide Web, to remember that there was a time when the two terms weren’t considered nearly synonymous by the general public. Of course, that’s partly because, before the proliferation of websites that followed Mosaic’s release (and for some time thereafter), most members of the general public didn’t have the least idea that the Internet even existed.

And it’s nigh-impossible to conceive of just how different the world would be today were it not for the event of twenty years ago today. Heck, you’d probably have to go to comp.wired.geekdad on Usenet to read this blog.

Facebook Introducing Topic Groups !!!

Part of Facebook’s 'awesome announcement'  recently was the addition of Skype-powered video chat, adding face-to-face calling. As part of this update, facebook also changed its chat layout, bringing a new sidebar to all pages. The thing is, this new addition to an already crowded Facebook layout, isn’t entirely to everyone’s tastes. It’s large, it’s clunky, and it’s largely unnecessary. But nowadays Facebook has started grouping the status updates by topic, in the hopes that the update will help make sense of your News Feed. Its realaly good.  Now, should your friends be sharing posts with similar themes — such as going to see the same movie — you’ll see a single News Feed story that lumps them together. “You may notice some of your news feed stories are now grouped together by topic,” the 750 million member-strong social network posted on its Facebook Page Monday. “We want to show you the most relevant and interesting information, and this test is designed to show you trends among what your friends are saying.”As with every Facebook change, not all users are loving the algorithmic alteration. Many of the initial comments on Facebook’s post were negative.

How to find if your friend is invisible or offline in gtalk.

Using this trick you can easily find whether the user is invisible or offline in gtalk / gmail.

Using gtalk

1.  Open the chat window of the victim that you want to check.


2. There is a down arrow icon on the right top of the window, click the icon and select "Go off the record".


3. Then send some text ( example : "hellloooooooooo" )


4. If the user is offline google will give you a message like " someuser@gmail.com is offline and can't receive messages right now."  otherwise if he/she is invisible there will not be any response.

Using gmail

If you are using gmail's chat you can't select the option when he/she is offline/ invisible, so whenever you see him online,  just set the chat as off the record with him from the arrow icon on the top right part of the window and follow the same procedure as explained above in the  case of gtalk.
