POPSStudying volcanoes with flying balloons :) "The balloons are piloted remotely by satellite link," Durant explained, "with flight visualization using Google Earth.

POPSWhen Google Owns You So, what happens now? What does Nick do? He’s sent a bunch of emails. But now what? Locked out of ALL of Google’s apps, the apps that I praise daily, the apps where Julien Smith and I are writing a book. Should we be doing that? I didn’t see a problem until this. What if we’re the next Nick? What’s your take? And what do you think of hands off customer service in this case?

POPSInternet Design Flaw Makes Email Vulnerable, Too While some details leaked out early — security researchers accurately guessed parts of Kaminsky’s discovery — he was able to keep a few juicy bits secret until the talk. One of those was the susceptibility of many e-mail servers to the DNS vulnerability, an opening that gives criminals a way to plant themselves in the middle of the transmission from the sender to the recipient and redirect messages to their own servers, Kaminsky said. The result: criminals have a way not only to comb through the contents of those messages, but also to gain access to other password-protected Web sites the victims belong to. That’s because most sites have a feature that allows members to retrieve their passwords by e-mail if they’ve forgotten them. If a criminal has access to the account where that message is sent, he can then begin snooping on the contents of that account, from e-mail, to banking, to retailer sites.

POPSControversy--Undercover Mosque on Channel 4 (UK) (I saw this doc and it was an absolute horrorshow . Talk about a wake-up to reality!! The videos are available online, youtube I think, maybe google.) Anyways: more from article-- His denial is very widely shared – which is why Mr Patani remains in his job, and why he won’t even be disciplined. The alarming truth is that much of Government policy towards radical Islam is based on Mr Patani’s delusion: if we pretend that radical Islamic preachers do not exist but are rather a creation of Islamophobic journalists, they will just go away. That sort of denial is extremely dangerous. ( YA THINK??????)

POPSAre photographers really a threat? Given that real terrorists, and even wannabe terrorists, don't seem to photograph anything, why is it such pervasive conventional wisdom that terrorists photograph their targets? Why are our fears so great that we have no choice but to be suspicious of any photographer? Because it's a movie-plot threat. This is worth fighting. Search "photographer rights" on Google and download one of the several wallet documents that can help you if you get harassed; I found one for the UK, US, and Australia. Don't cede your right to photograph in public. Don't propagate the terrorist photographer story. Remind them that prohibiting photography was something we used to ridicule about the USSR. Eventually sanity will be restored, but it may take a while.

POPSYahoo turns to Google. Microsoft cries foul. Very interesting move by Yahoo! They may be able to significantly increasing their earnings by integrating Google's search ads on their own site. Talk about a potential blow to microsoft. To think that they're left crying foul about this being anti-competitive after all these years is beyond ironic.
