How to obfuscate, cloak or hide your email address from spammers in your website

Whenever you publish your email address on your website, it will be vulnerable to email harvesters and spammers.  What they usually do is they use their own software that "crawls" over millions of websites and search and scan the all the texts and look for those words containing the email patterns. A a typical HTML code for an email link would look like this:   <a href= "mailto:myEmail@myDomain.com" > myEmail@myDomain.com </a>     As a good practice, we have to make sure that email addresses that appear on your site are obfuscated or cloaked.  In this way, only people can read it but not by bots and other web-crawlers. Email addresses can be made un-readable to these software by not putting the email address directly as plain text.  We can use the power of JavaScript to compose your email address.

Before I found this straight-forward solution, I had been trouble-shooting my Google App Engine for 3 weeks because I cannot point my application site to my naked domain ( http://vargas.im ). You have a naked domain problem when your website cannot work without a www in front. So if you have mydomain.com as your domain, it can only be opened only by entering www.mydomain.com . When someone enters only mydomain.com (notice the missing www in front) the error is shown. Although there are a lot of articles on the web on how to fix this, these guides are not applicable for Google Apps anymore.  Google has restricted this feature and the only way to do it was to put an A record in your DNS settings, which needs an IP address and not an alias. Google cannot give us a specific IP address because they host their apps in different servers and it is difficult to maintain these service by hard-coded IP address. Fortunately, I found an IP address that you can assign t...

Wouldn't you wish that your phone could last for at least a day? In this article, I will show you how I managed to keep my phone up and running for 2 straight days! Just a proof that I'm not bluffing, here is my Galaxy S II phone's screenshot: I did not charge it for as long as 2 days and 15 hours. Now here are the steps on how I did it. 1. Disable all unwanted applications. When you first bought your phone, it came with some "free" apps that you may not necessary need. They are also known as "bloatware". My phone came with pre-installed Weather Apps and some apps that were installed by my Telco.  I disabled all of them by going to Settings > Applications screen. If you're not sure if it's safe to disable the application, you can ask me by sending your comments. Here are some screenshots of the applications that I disabled.  I have disabled Social Hub because I don't need it.  I also disabled...
