Go Tell It on the Mountain
Topic: Technology 3:34 pm EST, Dec  8, 2003

] Diplomats from 191 countries meet this week in Geneva for
] the three-day United Nations World Summit on the
] Information Society. It's the occasion for The Helloworld
] Project to project thousands of 500-foot-high laser-light
] SMS messages onto the Geneva fountain.
]
] Internet users everywhere can post billboard thoughts
] almost instantly onto the fountain -- or onto the
] northern façade of New York's U.N. building, the face of
] a mountain in Rio de Janeiro or the front of a Bombay
] skyscraper.

It's like a sanctioned 2600 hack!

Startup Says Quantum Crypto Is Real
Topic: Technology 11:18 am EST, Nov 14, 2003

] Startup MagiQ Technologies Inc. yesterday announced it's
] shipping what appears to be the first security system
] based on quantum cryptography.
]
] Quantum cryptography goes a step further than electronic
] cryptography through its employment of a stream of
] photons, the quantum properties of which determine the
] key. The fun part is that if an intruder observes or
] intercepts the transmission, those properties get changed
] -- an unavoidable principle of quantum mechanics --
] meaning the sender and receiver can tell if anyone is
] eavesdropping. Perhaps more important, the key can't be
] copied or faked (see Optical Science Gets Spookier and
] Quantum Cipher Sent by Fiber ).
]
] It's a potential breaththrough, though working with
] photons has never been easy, and, as the optical
] networking bubble has shown, it can be an expensive way
] to build technology.
]
] MagiQ's Navajo system, a box made to fit in a standard
] telecom rack, was unveiled in February and began beta
] trials in March.

Canadian Segway
Topic: Technology 11:26 am EST, Nov 12, 2003

] Like the Segway, Bombardier's Embrio concept--a prototype
] that may or may not make production--uses gyroscope
] technology to balance riders but adds a dash of flair
] absent in the Segway, which we as car nuts find slightly
] nerdy.

me want!

Topic: Technology 9:17 am EST, Nov  4, 2003

] While critics in the United States grow more concerned
] each day about the insecurity of electronic voting
] machines, Australians designed a system two years ago
] that addressed and eased most of those concerns: They
] chose to make the software running their system
] completely open to public scrutiny.

USATODAY.com - CD-copy protection system said to have simple flaw
Topic: Technology 11:26 am EDT, Oct  9, 2003

] A Princeton graduate student said Monday that he has
] figured out a way to defeat new software intended to keep
] music CDs from being copied on a computer %u2014 simply
] by pressing the Shift-key.
]
] In a paper posted on his Web site late Monday, John
] Halderman said the MediaMax CD3 software developed by
] SunnComm Technologies could be defeated on computers
] running the Windows operating system by holding down the
] Shift key, disabling a Windows feature that automatically
] launches the encryption software on the disc.
]
] Halderman said the protection could also be disabled by
] stopping the driver the CD installs when it is first
] inserted into a computer's drive.

LMFAO!!!
