If you are like me, and don’t want to watch streaming video in a browser window, and would rather use VLC, you can find links such as http://cnn-cnnlive-2-primary.wm.llnwd.net/cnn_cnnlive_2_primary?MSWMExt=.asf by carefully tracking the browser path. Looks like they’re using Limelight for this. Interesting.

Biden + Obama
Personally, I find the pick interesting because he has issues staying on message and can easily get himself in trouble with words, but it does provide balance to Obama who is well polished in his speaking and manners. Also, our current president isn’t exactly known for being a perfect orator. We’ll see if the Romney prediction is correct in the future.

cybercrime not prosecuted
Not shocking for those of us in the industry, but cybercrime (aside from trying to arrange underage sex and child pornography cases) get very little attention. There’s a report that was done by a few places, the report article is here with the Full PDF available for your perusal. Interesting to think about laws put on the books, but the lack of resources made available to prosecute new laws. Perhaps something like PayGo when it comes to these types of investigations. The assymetrical battle rages on. The internet brought you more than low-cost communications with family and friends, the cost is lower for the bad guys as well.
