Private....eyes?

In an age of such an overwhelming sense of voyeurism we still want our privacy but it seems that a simple missed keystroke can open your wifi to the world (when in a public wifi hot spot). Very interesting article by fast company....make sure to read the comments at the bottom of the page!

Sad state...

Here is a quote that is a little tough for me...

In the cancer community, Armstrong's miraculous cancer recovery, not his legal troubles, is the focus. "You can separate the two things," explained Alex Hejnosz, an analyst with CipherHealth whose mother survived melanoma. I met them at a recent Livestrong event in Philadelphia. "If he did whatever they're saying he did, bummer. But it doesn't detract from what he's doing for Livestrong and cancer." Besides, Hejnosz said, sports have made many of us more cynical and more forgiving in recent years. "I'm 23. I've only grown up with sports stars who have cheated. I'm used to it."
