Hi everybody,
Except books, magazines are always the very good sources of knowledge, I believe that many of you are loyal readers of eWeek, SD Times, Electronic Gaming Monthly, CIO Insight, Dr Dobb 's Journal … etc. KnowFree 's contributors are contributing a lot of them, but it seems not to be enough.
Recently, I have receive a offer from a partner to provide KnowFree 's visitors hundred kinds of magazines for free. I mean they are really free, you just put your email in the box, answer a few questions ( I tried, and I am sure that it won't take you more than 5 minutes) then start receiving your favorites magazines directly to your mail box. I think that it is still one of advertising kinds, but they are providing really good things, without credit card or trial period as I had experienced before.
"It's worth it to them to give you the magazine free because you have a genuine need for the information and products described therein. Advertisers need a vehicle to deliver their message to you which justifies spending advertising dollars to give subscriptions for free."
So, let start with SD Times, one of my favorite one. Or you can browse hundreds of other kinds HERE

Looking to study up for the new J2EE 1.5 Sun Certified Web Component Developer (SCWCD) exam?
This book will get you way up to speed on the technology you'll know it so well, in fact, that you can pass the brand new J2EE 1.5 exam. If that's what you want to do, that is. Maybe you don't care about the exam, but need to use servlets and JSPs in your next project. You're working on a deadline. You're over the legal limit for caffeine. You can't waste your time with a book that makes sense only AFTER you're an expert (or worse, one that puts you to sleep).
Learn how to write servlets and JSPs, what makes a web container tick (and what ticks it off), how to use JSP's Expression Language (EL for short), and how to write deployment descriptors for your web applications. Master the c:out tag, and get a handle on exactly what's changed since the older J2EE 1.4 exam. You don't just pass the new J2EE 1.5 SCWCD exam, you'll understand this stuff and put it to work immediately.
Head First Servlets and JSP doesn't just give you a bunch of facts to memorize; it drives knowledge straight into your brain. You'll interact with servlets and JSPs in ways that help you learn quickly and deeply. And when you're through with the book, you can take a brand-new mock exam, created specifically to simulate the real test-taking experience.

The main focus of Pro Web 2.0 Application Development with GWT is a case study of a real Web 2.0 application called ToCollege.net.
What you’ll learn:
- You’ll take a full tour of a modern Web 2.0 startup’s codebase. That’s 15,000 lines of source code that includes everything from Google Gears integration to Acegi OpenID, Lucene full–text search, and Google Maps, all of it integrated with GWT 1.5.
- Leveraging this book’s available source code, you’ll see the nitty–gritty details of how to merge a modern Web 2.0 application stack including Hibernate, Spring, Spring MVC 2.5, SiteMesh, and Freemarker together.
- You’ll see how to wire GWT into an industry standard Maven build environment, which will help you get up to speed quickly and avoid configuration headaches.
- The great pitfall of many Ajax applications is they’re mostly opaque to search engines. You’ll see the ToCollege.net solution to this thorny problem.
- Protection from XSS and XSRF attacks is beyond the scope of simple GWT tutorials, but they are a real concern for a site like ToCollege.net. The book will cover the ToCollege.net security architecture in detail.
Who is this book for?
This book is for developers who are ready to move beyond small proof–of–concept sample applications and want to look at the issues surrounding a real deployment of GWT. If you want to see what the guts of a full–fledged GWT application look like, this is the book for you.
GWT 1.5 is a game–changing technology, but it doesn’t exist in a bubble. Real deployments need to connect to your database, enforce authentication, provide protection from security threats, and allow good search engine optimization.
To show you all this, this book looks at the code behind a real live web site called ToCollege.net. This application specializes in helping students who are applying to colleges, allowing them to manage their application process and compare the rankings that they give to each school. It’s a slick application that’s ready for you to sign up and use.
The audience for this book either owns another GWT book for the basic tutorials or is comfortable using the online documentation and forums when they’re stuck, which allows this book to move quickly and focus on answering the bigger architecture questions.

A self-respecting Google hacker spends hours trolling the Internet for juicy stuff. Firing off search after search, they thrive on the thrill of finding clean, mean, streamlined queries and get a real rush from sharing those queries and trading screenshots of their findings. I know because Ive seen it with my own eyes. As the founder of the Google Hacking Database (GHDB) and the Search engine hacking forums at http://johnny.ihackstuff.com, I am constantly amazed at what the Google hacking community comes up with. It turns out the rumors are truecreative Google searches can reveal medical, financial, proprietary and even classified information. Despite government edicts, regulation and protection acts like HIPPA and the constant barking of security watchdogs, this problem still persists. Stuff still makes it out onto the web, and Google hackers snatch it right up. Protect yourself from Google hackers with this new volume of information.
