According to the WSJ Tech Alert I just got on my soon-to-be-a-brick Blackberry, Google shares dropped 19% after income 'surged' 82% to $372.2 million.Updates-on-the-blog-the-extranet-WiKID-etc

I have ended the experiment of using anonymous two-factor authentication as a turing test. I don't know for sure if it kept people from posting, but I did get at least one whiny email from a potential commenter saying he didn't have time to sign up for WiKID just to post to my lame blog. I won't say who it was, but I guess your new paymaster must keep you pretty busy, though you seem to have enough time for your own side projects. I have implemented a standard captcha instead.

We're currently having some ISP issues. This is affecting in-bound email and access to the test WiKID server and extranet. You can still download the server and vwmare images. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Via Overlawyered.com:In Omaha, which recently enacted a restaurant smoking ban, authorities are urging vigilant citizens who notice illicit smoking to call 911 to summon a police response. The local emergency coordinator has objected, saying 911 calls over smoking could overwhelm the system and distract dispatchers from more dire emergencies, but the police department says it is sticking by its advisory.
or perhaps, you could just ask the person not to smoke. Then, if you get your ass kicked, call the police.
incentive-plan-for-an-information-security-team
Posted by: admin 14 years, 10 months ago
It has occurred to me that you could develop an interesting incentive program for an information security team, assuming that you believe a couple of data points (or can come up with your own) and your primary concern is a data breach. In my opinion, security people are all too often incented only to maintain security - not to optimize the investment in security. Interests need to be aligned.
