Security holes found in PHP scripting language -Gee and it’s not even a Microsoft scripting language? Just goes to show, totally secure, bug-free stuff is not that easy!

Britney Worm warning -It’s not very widespread now, but I’m willing to bet the same idiots who were dying to get a pic of Anna are the same ones opening and running this one hoping for a glimpse of Britney.

Have iPod, Will Secretly Bootleg -Man if this really happened where a kid walked into a CompUSA with his iPod and starting copying software off the display Mac’s, computer stores have a problem!

Geocites to end FTP service for free users. Great, now I’ve got to figure out some other way to have a blog on my Child Abuse site. Like Yahoo hasn’t become enough of a pain with their non-stop invasive advertising, now this?

The details are in and the new site for Gnomedex 2002 went live last night. It’s all being held in downtown Des Moines this year, no more shuttle bus!
