  1. Don't people get it, Apple is next Microsoft on Inside Safari 3.2's Anti-Phishing Feature · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Keeping it short, the headline says it all!

  2. Pager? I get distracted by twitter on Where Have All the Pagers Gone? · · Score: 1

    eom

  3. If only its easy for sites to adopt on Protecting Online Identity Through Cryptography · · Score: 1

    During the pre-Web 1.0 days, there used to be something called as SET (Secure electronic transaction) Protocol for online payments. It worked by securing the credit card information which was only seen by the merchant's bank and not by the merchant himself. Hence, reducing theft of data and other blah. However, it failed to take off as it required additional infrastructure and internet users were daunted with certificates and e-wallets (a browser plugin).

    As I see, credentica has some kind of SDK. How would the provisioning of identity work? Not very clear (there website is down with a 403 right now, guess slashdotting is still a bane!).

  5. Driving Directions: Vancouver, BC to Victoria, BC on Google Offers Hybrid Satellite and Map View · · Score: 1
    Last week I was in Canada for the first time and was trolling around the web to find a way to reach Victoria, in British Columbia, Canada.

    Unmindful of the fact that the island on which Victoria is situated is at least 90 minutes away by ferry, I plunk the following on Google Maps:

    Start Address: Vancouver, BC, Canada and Destination Address: Victoria, BC, Canada

    Pat comes, Google Map's reply: Distance 108.1 km (about 11 hours 49 mins). I'm still trying to figure out whether geeks would like cool technology or they would like buggy betas. Based on the vote, I would write the next business plan ;) If you care for the map and little bit more of the story, waste your time at http://www.khaitan.org/mt/archives/000074.html

  6. Un(evil) on Netscape 8 Breaks IE XML · · Score: 3, Funny

    Having a hard time. Who is evil here?

  7. Look Ma, All Ads... on TiVo Starts Testing "Pop-up" Ads · · Score: 1
  8. Re:So much for TiVo on TiVo Starts Testing "Pop-up" Ads · · Score: 1

    Only pop-ups? What happened to pop-unders, skyscraper, flying creative, interstitial, toplayer, and text ads? PS:I'm not a marketer, picked these up on Google

  9. Re:Almost useless on Credit card signatures: Useless? · · Score: 1


    I have been writing my kids names for the past so many years!

  10. Is @Home liable for providing access to illegal? on Aussie ISP Scans Downloads For Copyright Violation · · Score: 1

    Instead of cutting off the user, why not make @Home liable, for providing access to the illegal material, in the first place.

    I'm sure, if they have the hardware/software to monitor each user's downloads, then they might as well as *erase* the hyperlinks from the web pages,before the user can view it.
