Freeware Port Scanners: Plug the Holes 06/11/2004 11:17 AM
A port is essentially an opening into your computer, and it can be hacked. Someone can infect your machine with a Trojan horse in this way, and that's only one of a host of distressing possibilities. If you open your computer to the outside world, you're vulnerable to attack -- period. Port-scanning software tests your network to determine which TCP ports are vulnerable to attack.

Richter calls it a 3.2, but I just call

Minor Washington state quake. It's been a while since I've experienced and earthquake, so when tonight's little one hit my hometown (a mere 3.2) I was a little shocked (and a little excited). I was also really impressed with the seemingly instantaneous response by the USGS and the University of Washington's GeoPhysics Dept. on their websites classifying it.

In the olden-days (eg- pre-Internet) I'd have to wait for the early morning news to find out any information about it, but through the miracle of HTTP I have all the info I want mere seconds after the event. In fact, less than 15 minutes after the quake the USGS site had over 260 responses on their website about the quake from people who felt it and left comments on their site.

I wonder if there are other sites that help classify and/or disseminate information about other naturally occurring phenomenon (hurricanes, tornadoes, etc.)... anyone, anyone?

Jon Udell: Extreme design versus extreme
programming 06/18/2002 08:16 AM
I've just returned from the What's Next conference in Brattleboro, Vermont, where I gave a pair of talks (one on web services, one on application servers). The keynote speaker for the day was Alan Cooper, designer of Visual Basic, author of several books, and founder of a company that specializes in interaction design.

Cooper's view is that the kinds of disasters that have always plagued the industry -- most recently, the catastrophic outcomes of many CRM (customer relationship management) systems -- are a result neither of poor strategy, nor of poor engineering, but of a failure to properly coordinate the two. The missing piece in his view is product planning and design, done according to a methodology that Cooper has devised and that his company practices. This methodology aligns itself with Colonel John Boyd's OODA (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) loop, fashionable in military circles.

Aria Digital has a new DAB radio out, this one made specifically for use with PCs or laptops over USB, called the A-6000. It follows Aria's "Global DAB" policy, too, which means that it uses both of the primary DAB bands (Band 111 and L-Band), allowing you to pick up DAB broadcasts pretty much anywhere they are sprayed out. It has both USB and SPDIF outs, and can record to MPEG2, MP3, or WAV, as well as work with the Electronic Programme Guide (like a DAB TiVo) for recording any shows you might miss. It's currently shipping for about £100.

New Toys: Nokia 6600. I'm starting this year with a brand new phone. For the last 8 months I used a Sony Ericsson T68i, but I've been disappointed by this phone. It's true that considering the feature-set it was cheap, but the fact that I had to reset it every few calls because for some reason it randomly stopped working made it a pretty poor phone.

So I went back to Nokia, buying a 6600. This has been a totally weblog-driven purchase: I picked the 6600 after reading Joi Ito's and especially Russel Beattie's weblogs.

It took a while to get it working properly with my Mac (it's not supported by iSync), but after some googling I got it to synchronize with my Address Book (pictures associated with people in the address book are sent to the phone, cool) and I can get on-line via bluetooth/GPRS with my PowerBook on the road.

The built-in camera seems to be almost usable: I can take a picture and send it via email right away, which is kind of cool. The included Opera browser works pretty well and the screen is big enough to let you do some web surfing directly on the phone.

Another cool feature is the ability to use any midi file as a ring-tone and ring-tones can be associated with specific users or groups. I guess I'll let people in my address book choose which song they want to be associated with when they call ;-)
