Carelessnes or strategic incompetence?
Aug 31st, 2009 by Scott

Please note, that as of this evening, a CAPTCHA script has been added too the page. I should have grabbed a screen shot earlier before they installed it. It would appear that the Democrats have a security flaw in their website.  The design person(s) were either careless and didn’t include any security system in the page or they planned [...]

Prism 0.9 Release and is now a Firefox Extension
Jan 14th, 2009 by Scott

Old news but still appropriate.  Read on for more information on Prism.   For those of us who wisely use Firefox as a browser, Prism 0.9 has been released as an extension for Firefox.  This basically means you can create a "stand-alone" looking application from just about any RIA (Rich Internet Application) like Gmail, Go [...]

Twitter turns down $500,000,000 offer…
Nov 24th, 2008 by Scott

Is this a good idea or bad? Should Twitter have sold off to Facebook? This story broke this morning from Kara Swisher at BoomTown. Her title is priceless: When Twitter Met Facebook: The Acquisition Deal That Fail-Whaled Kara went on to discuss the pros and cons of the takeover. First offer vice wait for something better.

Apparently the Air Farce Force has restricted the use of any removeable media from their network computers. Remember back in March (on a previous version of my blog that is long gone) I r [...]

Where do we start? How do we get to the starting line?
Nov 5th, 2008 by Scott

With the “bluing” of Virginia, in Tuesday’s election, and the general implosion of the Republican Party, there has been much talk about where we go from here. One of the prospects is to lay down and die.  But my friend and fellow Jeffersonaid Blogger Jason Kenney had a great response to that idea: There are many options avail [...]

Beware of terrorists and vegetarians!
Oct 26th, 2008 by Scott

UPDATE: Read the report here. Ok.  I was ok with this report right up until this paragraph.  My emphasis added: Twitter has also become a social activism tool for socialists, human rights groups, communists, vegetarians, anarchists, religious communities, atheists, political enthusiasts, hacktivists and others to communicate with each o [...]
