I keep meaning to post a long reflective article about why I have decided to make some big changes about what and why I blog but I just never seem to find the time. In short I have become rather bored making general security commentary; [...]

This Blog Is Changing – Watch This Space
February 25, 2009I am changing my blog subscriptions – Your help is needed
June 10, 2008I am bored of the same old crap coming across my feed reader so I have decided to experiment; be ruthless and un-subscribe from anything that I don’t read (value) regularly and look for new fresh thinking and opinions.

The Long Tail of Information Security (Part 1)
August 4, 2007
I have just finished reading the Long Tail by Chris Anderson (editor of Wired). It is brilliant and the best book I have read in several years.

The Dirty Dozen I am Watching (and Why)
March 13, 2007I am always following whats happening in a few security companies for one reason or not. These are a dirty dozen on my watchlist (I have over 40 in total) and the terse gossip I have accumulated on them. I know its woefully out of date which is a conscious reason I post this; hoping kind [...]
Blogonomics #6
February 22, 2007Pete, are you listening? Pingback, if you want to be my guinea pig (OMG I don’t believe I just linked to that picture). I want to try out a live Blogonomics experiment. Can you whip up a spiffy “About Me” page for your blog and monitor your metrics?
So rule # 6 is this. I think making sure [...]
