I am always amazed at the lack of understanding about how open source business models can work.

Posted by: admin 14 years, 10 months ago
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.

Oracle bought Thor, which I thought was very interesting. As Pete Lindstrom pointed out, it was a busy week for security-related acquisitions. This post at Digital ID World (hat tip to Venture Chronicles sums up my thoughts. I wonder if Oracle will go after RSA? I have my doubts. Oracle is just really going after Sun, IBM, etc.incentive-plan-for-an-information-security-team

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.

Now, this is interesting. A mobile payment system that supports an existing paper-based system. (more from Daniel today, he's on fire ;). Most ticketing systems now support UPC code reading for tickets purchased and printed at home. Now you can buy your tickets on your cell phone and have the UPC scanned from your phone.
