An online fraud is scamming travelers as they book rooms at some of America’s best known hotel chains. The Internet scam combines online advertising, bogus hotel locators, third-party reservation systems, and an Internet browser virus to redirect traffic to faked websites.

Last week it was piggy-backing on pirated versions of iWork’09, this version, dubbed OSX.Trojan.iServices.B, is being delivered with pirated copies of Adobe Photoshop CS4. As before, the trojan asks for root privileges in order to open a back door into a user’s machine.

You gotta love the Twitter. Not! Last week, we finally updated our content management system to automatically post news headlines on Twitter. This was something many of our you have requested. And I just announced our Twitter support to all 1 million+ of you.

As you know, we publish five very well respected magazines online: DominoPower, OutlookPower, WebSpherePower, Computing Unplugged and Connected Photographer. These correspond to brand-new Twitter accounts DominoPower, OutlookPower, WebSpherePower, ComputingUnplug, and ConnectedPhoto.

So you can imagine how joyful it was to discover, a day after telling our readers our free industry news was on Twitter, that all our accounts had been suspended. Not only does this help us feel oh-so-good about Twitter, but it makes us look terrible in front of all of you.

We were not contacted by Twitter. We were not given an explanation. And our email to them has not been responded to. My guess is they didn’t like our pinging of their API as we got the software to work (they limit their API to 100 requests per hour — our normal news flow would be about 6 news requests per day). But our requests for a test account for development wasn’t responded to by anyone at Twitter either.

I’m still hoping for an actual human being responsible for working with legitimate, mainstream publishers to contact me. My contact information is below. I’m also hoping they get back to me with some level of explanation — or a desire to work together. Otherwise, we’ll be writing this off as yet another bad experience by a faceless Web 2.0 service.

Meanwhile, for anyone who’s ever wondered why we don’t just job out the management of our magazines to some online service somewhere instead of building all our own code…now you know. Great fun, these “services”. — David

Is it size? Power? Or, maybe, price that makes the difference when calling one machine a netbook and another a notebook?
