RSS Made SimpleI get asked about RSS almost every week. I've been using a feed reader for longer than I can rememeber but that doesn't mean I am good at explaining why you should. Here is a quick 3 minute video that does an excellent job. View the video at CommonCraft.com It can be addicting I read over 60 blogs everyday. But with RSS it takes me less than 90 minutes.

* Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue. * Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it. * If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague. * If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. * It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others. * Never buy a car you can't push. * Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late. * The second mouse gets the cheese. * When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

Web 2.0 Expo - Tuesday
Goodbye Passwords – Hello Security A new company launched this morning here at the Web 2.0 Expo and it’s possibly the most brilliant yet simple solution I’ve encountered here. So let me lay this out, I’ll use a banking example. The common approach for you and I to access our online banking system is to use a username and password. The problem is that most of us can’t remember more than a couple passwords so what happens is that in the end we use the same one for just about everything we do. Very Insecure! Plus anyone who has spyware on their machine can be compromised the first time they use their password. The other issue is with many security features like the code on my American Express card the security number feature exists where someone else could access it. If I lose the card or it’s stolen the person who ends up with it has the code. So, here’s how the Vidoop system works to eliminate the authentication issues. They have a new approach to the “login in issue”. When you sign into the system for the first time you’re prompted to select several categories that you find easy to remember. They are associated with images you will receive when logging into a secure system. So let’s say you choose planes, trains and automobiles. When you arrive at a login in screen enabled with Vidoop you will see a grid of random images each image has a letter next to it. The user looks for his categories in this case planes, trains and automobiles and enters the corresponding numbers as the login instead of a password. The great thing here is the images and codes change every time but its easy and secure because the only person the knows which numbers on the grid to use is the person who knows the categories to look for, plus the images change for every login so the plane on the first login might be a jet and the next time a bi-plane. To make it even more interesting when using Vidoop from a computer the system passes a token to the computer on the first interaction and from then on the Vidoop system looks for the token as well as the correct image recognition. This is a powerful solution but on the surface it’s extremely simple to administer and distribute. If you’re challenged by security issue you should really look at these guys.

The term Web 2.0 has been around for a while now but recently its found its way into our world of Business Intelligence. Many people are using the term Enterprise 2.0 to discuss how this new direction online is effecting the business world.

I'll be covering the show and speaking with the solution providers that are leading the way in this space. Companies that you will recognize are Denodo, Sun, IBM and FAST just to name a few. The cutting edge Business Intelligence companies see the connection between Web 2.0 solutions and the enterprise. Stay tuned to hear more.
