Does anyone else have security concerns about wifi "on the chip"
I mean at the moment I physically control access to my servers and know that the ethernet ports + usb access can be controlled by physical access.
Eg check out the banks / other financial institutions that superglue shut usb ports/physical Ethernet disconnection alarms etc
With wifi on the chip this all becomes moot.
I know the access vector is a little esoteric probably on the level of a bios attack but I still see this as being a big old security can of worms.
How many iterations have we had of various wifi security that have been upgraded over the past decade as fallible? With wifi on the chip unless the chip is replaced you're screwed and accessible by anyone "within range". Talk about Bluetooth war driving this is a way bigger problem.
Would the last Twitter developer out please turn off the lights when you leave.
Lol this is the beginning of the end for twitter and third party developers. Ever since MyTwitterButler received its first cease and desist it has been a game of footsies with third party developers but with these new rules why would you bother.
Thats ok Twitter with their massive dev team and budget have had a massive IE8 scripting problem which is locking up any browser that tries to reply to a tweet (posting and retweeting works fine).
its day 35 and counting Twitter.
lol make me chuckle that not a single person over there is using IE8 abnd that these basic problems are not being picked up by their QA testing.
I was reading a report today that states the following
"Digital TV Research calculates that China became the largest digital TV household nation in 2010, and will boast 417 million digital homes by end-2017, by which time India will almost certainly have overtaken the US."
The USA (eg read Hollywood) has been a long time social influencer of the world because of its ability to export its tv/movies to the rest of the world powered by a profitable cable revenue generation cash machine that is the US cable tv market (just look at the recent A&E sale as a guide to valuation).
So my question is this......
If India takes over the USA in terms of pay tv market size, and China already bigger than the USA (almost as a rounding number with continued annual growth), Could we ever see a situation where "BollyWood" or "Shanghai" is the exporter of cool around the world? Will it get to a situation where Hollywood police no longer matter?
I havent been involved in data centers since 2002 but in my last data center project we were carrying minimum 5 days diesel power with supply contracts in place for a further 10 days.
WTF? a few days of heat and half of the internetz gets shut down?
I thought the advantage of EC2 was they could re-route computing power on demand around the world etc? eg SF was carrying heavy power loads they could switch it to geothermal in Iceland and stuff like that?
i agree with the comment about how dont biuild on other peoples platforms.
I started a sports fan site ( http://www.LiveFanChat.com ) and even though we have 14 fan pages for each of our sites have made sure to keep generic names
i think you'll find they acquired all of those, having said that....these are descriptive and cant be copywrited without the inclusion of the name Google eg i can call my startup Cognation Play and have no fear with losing this case.

MobileAppStore.com (i also owned the .net .org .mobi)
No i didnt come up with it before the app store but it was still pretty early.
Ended up selling it to a domainer who still owns it as needed cash at the time to buy another domain which is part of my http://www.LiveFanChat.com domain faimly (gulp the only X,XXX domain i've ever bought).
Keep wishing i didnt sell it as its just sitting there being used for nothing.
