Move for live

Yesterday I went to the opening night of Klaus Littmanns new art intervention: Move for live. Six different artists designed trucks that will travel 250'000 km around Europe - catching more than 25 million visitors each year. The topics are poverty, AIDS, racism, violence and environmental damage. I liked the idea of art being present on our streets (and not just art galleries and museums) as well as the pictures on the trucks. What you see here is a piece by Basel artist Xia Zheng. More trucks will be launched in Frankfurt, Vienna, Paris, Madrid and Milan for up to 46 different trucks.

Passwords Alone Don't Protect Trade Secrets

Another proof that technology alone is not enough to keep important information secret; we'll have to establish policies and processes that explain people the meaning of tagging informaton confidential. Passwords Alone Don't Protect Trade Secrets : " A court ruled that simply password-protecting a file isn't enough to make it a trade secret. "
