I Read in the FT yesterday about this new British social networking site for the business community. Initial comments and reviews from the FT and others are mixed with a feeling that they may be a bit late to the party and that LinkedIn and Xing are going to be hard to beat. Gaining critical mass of the right types of people is key. According to the FT, the company will be targetting the top 200 “super networkers&# from other sites who have more than 500 contacts and trying to entice th

Browsers suck. We're building our fortified web apps on foundations of sand. A little while back, I was talking with Jeremiah about an interesting attack he had to determine whether a user is logged into a given site or not. The attack relies on the target site hosting an image at a known URL for authenticated users only. It proceeds by abusing a generic browser cross-domain leak of whether an image exists or not -- via the onload vs. onerror javascript events.

One of the most frequent tasks on many intranets is finding people within the company. Providing an effective way to search people is thus a key goal in designing intranets. This goal becomes even more important for an organization like Emirates, a leading international airline, which has over 35,000 employees with over 140 nationalities and where more people are likely to use this feature more frequently.

Here’s how the game works: You’re on your computer, instant messaging away. One IM session is with a real person and the other is with an artificial intelligence (AI) program that’s designed to pose as a human being by using a casual conversational tone. The AI is able to respond in complete sentences with realistic syntax to mask its identity, even throwing in slang, canned humor, or typos.
