Links

  • Open Rights Group - now has its permanent home on the web. The Pledgebank pledge only needs another 80 or so people to complete.
  • George Dyson at Google - via Kottke I think. Interesting discussion of some aspects of computation from a historical viewpoint, plus a quick look at what's happening at Google.
  • Skyscraper database - via MeFi. The page I linked shows the tallest in the world, but you can get all kinds of views out of it. Nice drawings too.
  • The Register - ATM fraud and the British banking system. Interesting stuff about phantom withdrawals and security weaknesses that could have brought down the whole banking system (maybe).

That's all for now. I'll probably be at the No2ID pubmeet at The Regal this evening (from about 8.30 I'd guess).
