Le
veraging RSS at Disney: from Collaboration to Massive Content
Delivery at the
O'Reilly Emerging
Technology Conference in San Diego.
Modern computers can handle large files, video, media, etc.
Want to provide experiences above the effective bitrate of our users,
and bits are expensive to ship.
Example: Added a high-quality video clip to the front page of
ESPN.com.
Came to think about the enclosure tag in RSS -- the idea of
asynchronously d/ling content behind the scenes. You can download the
experience prior to hitting the page.
Built a client-side technology -- espn.com, disney.com, etc -- an RSS
aggregator that d/ls and pre-caches video on the machine, and
communicates with the mothership to tell them who's got what in the
cache.
We wanted 500k users in 1 year -- in three weeks we hit a million.
Over 2 million now. Sustainign 2GB of bandwidth, TBs/day.

06/23/2004 03:08 AMIt’s a myth that the information technology (IT) requirements of
emerging and midsize businesses are simpler than those of large
enterprises. Virtually every day, we interact with the technology and
business leaders of midsize companies whose IT demands not only rival
the requirements of much larger companies, but in many cases exceed
them.Fortunately, emerging and midsize businesses can resolve the
dilemma of updating their outmoded IT infrastructure without massive
one-time investments in technology. New technologies, such as
Microsoft® .NET, enable companies to leverage previous investments in
technology while step-by-step integrating their business systems to
enable an efficient, cost-effective, and flexible solution to driving
and managing growth. Learn

Instant authentication against an
existing web application
07/14/2004 07:03 PMI was thinking today about the problem of querying an
existing authentication database from a new application - exactly the
kind of thing web services are useful for. Then I realised that any
web application protected by HTTP Basic authentication already provides a
standard API against which queries can be run. Here's the
Python code to do exactly that:
def auth_against_url(url, username, password):
import urllib2, base64
request = urllib2.Request(url)
b64 = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % (username, password))[:-1]
request.add_header('Authorization', 'Basic %s' % b64)
try:
urllib2.urlopen(request)
except urllib2.HTTPError:
return False
return True
To check a username and password against an existing
application's user database, just call the above function with the
URL of a page
within the existing application as the first argument. The function
returns True if the username and password are valid, and False
otherwise. It doesn't get much simpler than that.
A nice side effect of using Python's standard library
modules is that they transparently support HTTPS, so authentication
can take place over an encrypted channel provided the target
application supports it.

Define Spyware Or Just Enforce Existing
Laws?
09/13/2004 09:56 PMThe question over exactly how
spyware
should be defined isn't exactly new. However, Mark Rasch's latest
column at SecurityFocus picks apart common spyware definitions to
make you wonder if
it's useful at all to define what spyware is. Instead, he
suggests (as have others
before<
/a>) that the real issue isn't in defining and outlawing spyware, but
simply enforcing existing laws that already make most of the worst
offenders illegal by way of laws against fraud. Of course, that won't
happen, because politicians want to make sure they're seen as doing
something to make their constituents' lives better -- and a law
against spyware (just like the mostly useless law against spam before
it) is good for publicity, even if it does little to solve any real
problems.

09/24/2004 03:29 AMTV content aggregation is not a business for network operators, who
will do better to form partnerships with satellite and cable operators
to sell TV over broadband. Gross margins on TV can be as low as 20%
but operators need TV services to compete with triple-play
competitors. Fixed broadband (BB) operators providing TV reduce the
net present value (NPV) of their business model over the first five
years, according to Analysys calculations for this report. Gambling
games are the most profitable entertainment option for network
operators. [PRWEB Sep 24, 2004]

Microsoft's Service Pack 2 Says Existing
Hotspot Logins Insecure
08/06/2004 08:26 PMMicrosoft's Windows XP Service Pack 2 will be available soon, but
they've got a little tweaking to do on their technical documentation:
This page explains to developers how Wireless Provisioning Service
(WPS) works. Never mind the fact that Service Set Identifier (SSID) is
described as the Secure Set Identifier. More importantly, they
overstate the current risk level for gateway-page logins at hotspots,
a problem that WPS bypasses (with all Microsoft server and client
components): The current connection model for WISP signup and use is
not secured. Most Wi-Fi hotspots are configured for open
authentication and without data encryption. Users are generally
required to launch a Web browser to initially sign up to the WISP
service and for subsequent logins. WSP mitigates this threat by adding
encryption and authentication to the communications between the client
and the wireless network. No, Mr. Gates, no, no, no. All
authentication gateway pages I've visited are SSL-based, meaning that
encryption (but not authentication) is already in the transaction. I
don't know where they got the most from. The SSL certificate has to be
signed by an approved certificate authority, or a client's Web server
would balk, and I haven't seen that kind of self-signed certificate
problem that would allow man-in-the-middle attacks. (That is, if you
were expecting to be warned about a self-signed certificate, then you
might accept even a fake AP's certificate. But if you weren't
expecting it, you probably wouldn't accept it.) Browser based
deployment is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks, for example, by
a malicious front-end server using a rogue access point. Users queried
by this access point might unknowingly be giving away personal
identification and credit card information. By eliminating the need
for a Web login WSP reduces the vulnerability of WISP users to this
type of attack. This is definitely one of the coolest authentication
elements of WPS. The transaction between XP SP2's WPS client and a
WPS-equipped hotspot involves quite a lot of quasi-out-of-band
confirmation. For instance, an SSL tunnel that's opened in one stage
of the authentication is signed by a certificate authority already
authorized in the WPS client. (So what's good for the goose should be
good for the gander, above, in terms of Microsoft's characterization
of hotspot authentication weakness currently.) Without additional
hotspot client software users can not easily detect hotspots and do
not have a unified mechanism to sign up to them. It is not easy...
