Last night I wrote the following piece for Techdirt:

Browsing the Apple App store for the iPod Touch, I noticed a few of these themed icons.

In a brief blog post by Dan Kaminsky, the finder of the DNS security bug, he says that people should "relax on Apple" because they fixed the server. This of course means that we can breathe a sigh of relief, because it means that it's likely that there is no unknown client method of attack that he is going to reveal at Black Hat, as some have speculated. (Though I never thought that, given the current data, there's much of an easily exploitable threat towards stub resolvers and the like.)

$12 MIT Computer Based On NES, Not Apple II: "ericatcw writes 'The $12 computer that a bunch of designers and grad students are talking up at an MIT conference this month as a potential, cheaper alternative to the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) for Third World students is actually a knockoff of the original Nintendo Entertainment System gaming console released in the mid-1980s, reports Computerworld, and confirmed in a comment by the project's spokesman, Derek Lomas. According to Lomas' account and pictures, the Victor-70 is an 8-bit NES clone that accepts its cartridges and is wholly contained in the keyboard.

I've been one of millions of 30 year old to middle age Mothers, reading the teenage novel series. I mentioned them before HERE.

I've decided that I need read less murder-mystery books and more love novels/sagas.  I seem to have a peaked desire, if you know what I mean.  Hubbie is happy.

I just discovered that one of the best shows on TV, The Soup, is in convenient PodCast form!  Now I can get my dosage of Joel's sick delivery of mocking humor about the drivel we call television on the run!

Get it HERE (in iTunes).

Lorsqu'il s'agit de prendre des notes en séance (réunion, brainstorming, conversation téléphonique), j'utilise depuis 2003 le sublime logiciel OneNote de la suite Office de Microsoft. Très complet et intuitif, il répond véritablement à mon besoin.

Oui mais - car il y a un mais - avec la multiplication actuelle des périphériques (PC fixe, PC portable, Netbook, PDA, Smartphone etc ...), il devient difficile d'avoir accès à ses notes en toute situation.

Apple's Cinema displays are very nice screens, but aside from minor changes there hasn't really been anything new since 2004 and if this rumor is correct there won't be any big changes for a while still.

If this rumor is correct, Apple will be unveiling updated Cinema displays at MacWorld 2009 that will use LED backlighting instead of the standard fluorescent style of backlighting.

It's episode #10, and, as promised, we were broadcasting live with a chatroom! The cool thing? The people in the chatroom got to listen to the show almost a full day before anyone else. Cool, huh?

But anyway, in this episode we talk about the new Mummy movie, X-Files, Hot Fuzz, Fallout 3, DC Universe Online, Champions Online, Team Fortress 2, a five grand computer, annoying checkpoint saves, and so much more!

Alexander Gollner, Editor und Designer hat nach eigener Aussage im November 1992 an einer Präsentation des ersten Apple Newton in London teilgenommen und Phasen der Keynote auf Video gebannt. Das Originalmodell wurde im August 1993 in Boston vorgestellt, Alexander muss sich daher wohl im Jahr geirrt haben, dennoch...

...ein cooles Stück Technikgeschichte auf youtube. 

Danke Alexander!
