Just the other day I watched this Google TechTalk video http://tinyurl.com/37ykh6, titled "Inbox Zero", and it's well worth the time (59 minutes) imho.
Great tips on how to handle your inbox and become more productive.

Re:What is the "killer app" for IPv6?

I don't see the "killer app" either, but I think there are some good reasons that might motivate adoption, in no particular order:
* from what I know the first opportunity for v6 adoption was missed because a lot of people just invested into upgrades to their v4 infrastructure. When it's time for the next upgrade v6 or hybrid gear might be more appealing.
* NAT is a kludge. Alot of services (VoiP, Filesharing, IM-Filetransfers) will just work smoother without, and the customers will probably like that.
* This is for marketing, corporations, governments: tracking will be so much easier when everyone has a static block of IPv6 addresses. Just think of the possibilities for profiling, busting p2p folks, protecting the children and snatching terrorists!
* Spam blocking could become easier since zombie pcs are not that much of a running target anymore.
* Uniquely addressable gadgets. Your cell phone and your PIM could have their own addresses and you could access them from anywhere.
Well, that's actually all I can think about right now. Not really killer applications, but it would make a lot of things easier, some for better and some for worse.
And after all, IPv4 addresses will run out. It's just a matter of time.
Trustix is by no way a new distribution. They've been around end of the nineties. Last time I checked their page (a year ago prolly) they announced to go more commercial with the next major release. Don't know why they didn't get more exposed, the idea (server OS w/o desktop ballast) has it's merits.
This challenge is moot.
If noone cracks the server it is no proof that the server is secure -- it could as well be that those that could do it save their knowledge for more rewarding targets.
Sorry, using S/MIME or (G)PG(P) isn't really rocket surgery anymore and you don't need 'Q' to equip you with fancy gadgets to do it.
If "highly sensitive information pertaining to ongoing USSS criminal cases." got transmitted in the clear over a public service provider there isn't really any excuse.

first of all I must comply about the handling of this vulnerability that I
reported to vendorsec. Obviously my code posted there has been stolen and
plagiarized in order to put the blame on Stefan Esser from Ematters and
disturb the security community.
I really apologize to Stefan Esser for the inconvenience and thank him
for his cool reaction - the plagiarism did work.
Further steps must be taken to investigate the security leak on vendorsec.

That is of course the reason why sports broadcasts (soccer, basketball, baseball, football et al) are so unpopular around the world.
