Speaking for myself, once I move people off of IE, I have never seen any of them (my clients) having a problem with spyware or exploits again. That is not to say that other browsers do not have them, but they do not seem to be the constant issue that I see everyday with IE. In fairness, they are working to improve this….

Cyborg Rats vs. Rescue Robots


Cyborg Rats vs. Rescue Robots 09/22/2004 04:50 PM
A lot of work has been put into robots designed for search and rescue over the last few years. The challenge is making robots small enough to crawl down into rubble carrying sensors, such as artificial noses, that can detect survivors. A NewScientist.com article reports that, for several years, a DARPA-funded project has been working on a better way to do it. They've implanted electrodes in a rat's brain that can directly read the neural responses from the rat's nose. The rats can be trained to sniff out humans and even explosives and their findings would be transmitted directly to a human search and rescue team. For more information, visit the project's website.

And what happens when there's a replaceable part inside the modern-day PC? That's right, someone puts lights in it. These PowerMod6 Molex cables from Japanese peripheral maker Scythe may not be out in the States yet, but I would expect to find the $10 (or so) cables imported by your favorite aftermarket mod shop soon enough.

Sony tranSticks: Wireless Cables


Sony tranSticks: Wireless Cables 07/14/2004 09:59 AM

transtick2b2.jpg imageResearch-types at Sony's Computer Science Laboratories have developed a concept called 'transSticks,' virtually connected Memory Sticks that act as simple networking cables between any two devices that support the standard. Although there are certainly bugs to work out, I'm sure (like security, although they seem to be keeping that in mind), being able to throw away networking cables completely would be great -- even if it necessitated every device having a Memory Stick slot. When someone develops a pairing standard that works like this between different card types, that will be more impressive.

Or wait, what if the wireless radios were inside the devices themselves and operated over a standard protocol, like 802.11b? I suppose that's just crazy talk. (I feel the need to disclaim my hateration -- this is actually pretty cool.)

Zip-Linq cables: device charging without
bricks


Zip-Linq cables: device charging without
bricks
12/22/2003 10:11 AM
It used to be that I shlepped a power-strip (sometimes two!) with me when I went on the road, because they haven't built the hotel-room yet that has enough plugs to charge my entire device array, not least because everything that fits in my pocket comes with a charger whose transformer brick eats two or three outlets.

Then I discovered USB and FireWire charging -- and more specifically, Zip-Linq retractable cables. Instead of plugging everything into the wall, you attach your device to a little bon-bon-sized retractable wire that goes into one of your computer's ports and plug your computer into the wall. This is especially handy if you're travelling overseas, since it's just not practical to buy enough Euro-220 adapters to get your devices to talk to the local alternating current. Your laptop probably has an international power-supply requiring only a plug adapter, and once that's attached to the wall, you've got know-quantity/know-interface power for all your gizmos.

Before I leave on my next trip overseas tomorrow, I will slip into my pocket a Firewire cable (for my little backup harddrive, which I yanked out of an old PowerBook and put into a tiny enclosure, so that I can back up every day on the road), a cellphone charger (one for my US Motorola iDen phone, one for my European Nokia phone -- and cables are available for most manufacturers: Motorola, Sony-Ericsson, Samsung, Kyocera, Sanyo) and a PDA charger (Palm, iPaq).

Rael crashed on my sofa this weekend and pointed out that Zip-Linq is now shipping a wall-adapter, so that if your laptop is unavailable, you can plug this into the socket and still charge up.

The best part is that at $10-20 these wires are actually cheaper than the manufacturers' chargers for the most part. Link
