ch-ch-ch-changes
Some of you will know that this year has been eventful, to say the least, for me. And those events have given me a different perspective. I’ve enjoyed myself at Modem/Digitas and met some wonderful folk but it is time to bid them farewell & wish them all the best. As for me, I’m goingContinueContinue reading “ch-ch-ch-changes”

In 10 years its use has rocketed to make communication faster and easier on the one hand but overwhelming and pointless on the other. New research from Glasgow & Paisley universities suggest that BritishContinueContinue reading “email hell”

Here’s a map of he DNS root servers globally. I didn’t realise that in 2002, an attack disabled 9 of the then 13 root name servers. And then in February 2007, 30,000 zombie PCs, traced to South Korea, battered the servers: affecting six, two badly. If all the servers were to be taken out,ContinueContinue reading “stuff and things 27.09.07”
