Tired of losing stuff? Now you don’t have to.We all lose stuff around the house. Keys. Wallet. And, of course, the TV remote. It is frustrating, time consuming and always seems to happen when we’re running late.Fortunately, low-cost gadgets can eliminate the panicky ransacking process and simply reveal the location of whatever it is you’re looking for. They use wireless technology and in some cases even smart phones. Here are three available now or in the near future.http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks…

6 Months of Security Links #2011
I’m a regular curator of daily links, and like to give overviews of my collection of curated links and posts. This is partly as there are some good sources and articles in here and as I am working on a research project which I started based on a number of books I read.
I’m sure you’ll find something interesting in the items below – there are some gems in the list – and I dare to hazard the guess you might learn something you wanted to know. 🙂

Proxlet is a Chrom add-on for Twitter which allows you to block apps, mute users, and filter tags on Twitter. Obviously you could just unfollow the user who are creating all the noise for you.

A handy tools which enables you to create and curate lists, and helps by generating useful lists of people who have recently started following, listed you, or are similar to you or somebody else. This did allow me to again reach a Twitter limit, the number of lists which are allowed.

Loving it, I always believed this should not be sold electronically and should be made available in the public domain. Obviously a paper version has costs involved, but €4.99 to download is about making profit on public domain material.

Started using TunnelBlick, which is an open source OS X implementation of OpenVPN, very nice.

They say themselves that: "As updates and content flow in real time around the Web, conversations around the content are becoming increasingly fragmented into individual silos. Salmon aims to define a standard protocol for comments and annotations to swim upstream to original update sources — and spawn more commentary in a virtuous cycle. It's open, decentralized, abuse resistant, and user centric."

I do much syndication using the possibilities of the existing platform, and I want to find a fully fledged solution for myself.

As OStatus puts it: "OStatus' goal is to help you to follow people on different social networks. It is a specification and usage of several web standards to allow this functionality, technically." Which means it's close to what I'm working on at the moment, although without the bus functionality.

Recently met a member of the Online Trust Alliance who enlightened me to the work that they are doing to make the Internet a safer place to do business.
