Ouch..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Right in the middle of yesterday’s stress-filled running around, trying to get everything and everyone to the right place and then back again, I found out that my grandmother died. I couldn’t, at that time, really think about it or try to find out what the funeral arrangements were and whether we would be able to make it to NY for them. I’m trying today to find that information and make that decision so Angela and I can rearrange our travel plans for this weekend, if need be. Consider my blogging to be on a break while real life continues it’s interruptions.

While the trackbacks will still appear in…

    OK, I admit it, I’m a sucker. I know I’m not the only one out there either. Yeah, I’ll be listening to Kevin’s podcast later today, simply because he blogged about it and said that I was mentioned in the program. Like you wouldn’t be tuning in to see what he said about you… 🙂…

    Angela put up an album of pics from our Columbus Zoo trip this weekend. I have a follow up question to the daylight savings thing. Why do they then air the NCAA Men’s Championship game so late on a Monday night right after we’ve switched to DST? I realize that to those of you on…

  • How Anonymous is Anonymous Data?

    Turns out, it probably isn’t too difficult to put together some pieces of your identity using the “anonymous” data that is tracked by various companies. Lots of interesting things in this post by Chris Dale about various sources of data and how they will start to show up in the legal world as eDiscovery, but a…

    I’ve had some time now to digest some things that have been going around the blog world and I have some thoughts: I’m glad that Elcomsoft was found not guilty but given the facts of the case I’m not too sure that this is really the death knell for the DMCA. The problem is that…
