Here are some notes for Monday, since I didn’t get a chance to post anything last night.
- del.icio.us is down, apparently from a power outage. Back on December 2nd I wrote about Malware and Web 2.0, but my comments apply just as equally to other negative things, like power outages: So what happens in a few years when the vast majority of our data is stored online?…All of that data needs to be proactively protected from attacks, it needs to be backed up in case of a successful attempt, and it really should be available all the time.
- I leave for Inuvik on Friday! I did a ton of shopping yesterday, so I’m getting closer to being ready to go. You can see Inuvik’s weather here.
- PayPal more cost effective than the credit card services? Interesting article from the New York Times.
- Last exam of the semester for me is tomorrow morning.
- Is Google ready to take a stake in AOL? Not everyone hopes so.
- Was there a tech product you wanted this year that never shipped? Vote for it in Wired’s Vaporware 2005.
- As much as I don’t like the cold, I wish it would just snow and stay here for a while so I don’t have to keep washing my car!
