    Quote, or prophecy?


    I came across the following Quote on the net...
    but I’m wondering whether this was an actual prophecy:

    "Computer games don`t affect kids.....
    I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids,
    we`d all be running around in darkened rooms
    munching on magic pills and listening to repetitive music."

    Kristian Wilson, Nintendo Inc, 1989.

    Twitter goes mobile (OK, even more!)


    Excellent stuff!
    An extract from the newsletter:

    Hello Twitter-ers,

    Technically speaking, Twitter has always been mobile because you can send and receive messages over SMS. However, there's more and more folks accessing the mobile web from so-called smart phones these days and we figured it was high time we created a mobile version of the Twitter web site. So if you have a browser-enabled phone, head over to m.twitter.com and catch up with your friends, mobile style. Special thanks to xhtml-mp developer, Heidi Pollock for helping us put this new feature together. It was an instant hit with us at the office. If you're on a standard web browser, we're still here: http://twitter.com

    Cisco IOS FTP Vulnerability


    Well, they managed to find a new one... quite nasty:

    The flaws could result in DoS, improper validation of user credentials, or -- most seriously -- the ability to access (and change) files from the device file system, including saved configurations. The configuration file often contains passwords and other sensitive information, Cisco warned.

    If an administrator has specifically enabled and configured the IOS FTP server the device could be vulnerable, Cisco said. Cisco IOS releases based on mainline versions 11.3, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3 and 12.4 contain the IOS FTP server. IOS XR is not vulnerable, according to Cisco.
