Trojan Horses in Radio

I was thinking about whether someone could embed some nasty URLs into their websites that would cause someone running Radio to do some damage to his own system. So I'm glad to see Dan Bricklin discuss this issue in some depth.

Update: It turns out that what Bricklin and I were thinking about is a security problem that Userland has just tried to address. So...if you are running Radio 8 or Radio 8.1, please do an update

Digital Assets at the Shoah Foundation

The Educause Listserv Archives points to Managing The Memories (ComputerWorld):

The Shoah Foundation, dedicated to recording the remembrances of Holocaust survivors, is cataloging and distributing thousands of videotaped survivor testaments through digital asset management. The survivor videos are broken into segments with a customized back-end database; each segment is assigned one of 21,000 topic keywords, and then the testimonies are cataloged with lists of keywords, photos of survivors and their families, related documentaries, and textual descriptions. Roughly 5,000 out of more than 51,000 tapes have been cataloged thus far. In October, the National Science Foundation awarded the foundation $7.5 million to support a voice-recognition technology initiative. The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, the University of Maryland in College Park, and IBM are subcontractors on the project.
