美術園道成台中市第一條「無菸一條街」, from Yahoo!奇摩新聞.

美術園道是台中市知名的景觀餐廳區, 台中市政府全力輔導業者定位為無菸餐廳, 已獲三十多家餐廳響應, 今天正式成為台中市第一條的「無菸一條街」.

市府衛生局長林登圳說, 市長胡志強積極推動「無菸一條街」目標, 衛生局配合輔導餐廳業者能夠推動為無菸餐廳, 這項工作逐漸獲得餐廳業者的迴響, 響應的家數逐漸增加.

稍為喜歡了胡志強, 哈, 改天回台中去看看 :)

Music Still Rules on Video iPod, from Yahoo! News.

Associated Press 的報導, 雖然我沒看完, 不過大意是說 Video iPod 的主打還是音樂. 原因是因為天生手持式裝置的缺點, 螢幕小會看不清楚; 螢幕大不但耗電, 更會失去手持式裝置輕巧的特性, 降低使用者購買慾.

而 Apple Computer Inc. 除了技巧性的把螢幕從 2 inches 加大到 2.5 inches, 延長電池的壽命以外, 也作了很出色的努力讓這些天生的缺點在 Video iPod 上不那麼明顯, 而且也改變策略, 讓 iPod 上看 Video 不是重點, 而變成是一個多出來的功能.

主打的功能則是 Enhance music listening 和 slideshow viewing, 給了使用者即便不會在 Video iPod 上看 Video, 也可以花錢買 Video iPod 的理由. (難怪 iPod 這麼成功)

Skype flaws open computers to attack, from ZDNet.
Skype漏洞讓電腦安全門戶大開, from Taiwan CNet.

就像去年的漏洞一樣, Skype 在星期二出了更新版. (Official advisory)

我不知道 Taiwan CNet 所說的 “最嚴重的瑕庛可能讓使用者電腦被攻擊者長趨直入” 是甚麼意思, 從 ZDNet 看起來是可以遠端送個 Link 引誘使用者去按它. 第二個則是 DoS 的弱點.

總之, 還是快快下載更新版吧!

Love Spam, from Jeremy Zawodny’s blog.

Jeremy 第一次在 gmail 上看到這種 Love SPAM, 所以他查了一下 Header, 是從 Hotmail 過來的. Comment 也和我想到的一樣, 意思是 Hotmail 提供的 SPF/SenderID 現在 Gmail 還沒 support 嗎?
