Konfabulator widget challenge. Create a Spymac related Widget for your chance to win a full licensed copy of Konfabulator, the "JavaScript runtime engine for Mac OS X that lets you run little files called Widgets that can do pretty much whatever you want them to." Be creative and think past a simple headline grabber. Other areas of interest are the Shoutbox, the Gallery and the Forums. Of course, we'll accommodate reasonable requests for custom data feeds and provide as much server-side help as possible.... [Spymac] Be creative, read the addressbook entries and send the widgets to all people listed there ... Seriously, Just because browsers are not that integrated into the OS on a Mac OS X, this does not mean that people should run JavaScript engines without sandboxes on their desktops. This is going to be a "vulnerability nightmare"! Anyone even started to use his/her brain and look into security implications? 7:49:40 PM    comment []

Daten von mehr als acht Millionen US-Kreditkarten geklaut [heise online news] ... ok, we're up to 8 mio! I guess by evening (GMT/UTC) we'll really hit the 10 mio figure! Funny, funny, funny! If you cannot read german, here's the Google-XLAT-ed version! BTW "klau" is colloquial for "theft" ;-) 10:12:42 AM    comment []

iChat from 30,000 feet "What's more than thirty thousand feet in the air, moving at hundreds of miles an hour, eating a gourmet meal, drinking a glass of Riesling, and is downloading files to his PowerBook at more than 50k/sec?" 9:44:41 AM    comment []
