Baby Ferrari, Jaguar and Maserati too!

EDRI tells the BOI story like it is…

13/05/2008

While the national media treat the story like a tiny little inconvenience and parrot the bank’s line that improper use of the data is unlikely, EDRI tells it like it is in just once sentence:

The personal data of about 10,000 customers of the Bank of Ireland are now in the possession of thieves as four laptops with the unencrypted data were stolen from the bank between June and October 2007.

The laptops were stolen by thieves. Bad people. People that will take every advantage that’s available to them.

Some crossover with the banks there, it seems…

Near-realtime mapping of anonymous Wikipedia edits. Achieves very little, but still very cool.

…or perhaps because of it, we need to see more of this sort of thing, put snotty little smartassed kids back in their boxes.

(Presuming it’s not mocked up of course…)

Beer v3

Forgot to say, I’ll be in the Franciscan Well from 6 or 7 this evening for a few pints. There’ll be a few CLUGgers there, and a few Boardsies. See you later if you’re around. Email for my number if you need to help finding us. :)

If Facebook were real…

O2 Customer Forum

30/04/2008

I’m delighted to report that O2 launched a customer forum this afternoon — partly because I had an involvment, but also because it’s great to see large companies inviting their customers in and communicating with them. There’s a lot of mistakes to be made in the online community business, but I get the impression O2 have the very best of intentions with these forums, long may they continue!
