DARPA & other databases

Other opinions and articles about DARPA's Total Information Awareness project (that's the home page for the project, complete with chart), can be found here. Links to the other stories are included. This is scary stuff. I'm all in favor of getting terrorists before they get me/us, but I don't at all like the idea of so broad a net being cast over all Americans.

Enough grousing about that today; how about an internet library of children's books, designed in part by kids for kids? For larger kids, there's a conference on blogging tomorrow at Yale; I don't much care about the panel discussions, but full credit goes to the designer of the logo. It's pure pulp magazine art.

Yo! Here's an urgent notice for Windows 2000, Millenium, and Win98 users: go directly to Microsoft's security site to get a patch!

Oooh...nice new look! I LOVE the snowflake quote. VERY much a good quote to meditate on daily, in this country's current climate (pun sort of intended)...
