so anyways.. i went out to CeBit today.. which is this computer show thing if u didnt know. and i must say i was sorely disappointed by the lack of freebies this year =p the show was overall quite disappointing.. lotsa mp3 players and mobile phones.. and casemods.. and internet security crap.. but nothing i hadnt seen before.. except for this 3D plasma screen. its like the sorta 3D u get at Imax. but without the bulky stereoscopic goggles! it looked heaps cool.. it looks like a hologram.. ooh =) heres a link

.... so anyways we were talking to this guy from security about soccer =p and about how defenders arent given enough recognition.. basically theyre expected to stop attackers all the time.. and if they screw up once, some1 scores a goal and they get heaps of crap. but a striker pretty much is expected to not score.. so if he misses thats ok.. and every1 remembers the one time he makes a good play and scores. .. but enough about soccer =p this guy was saying that security is like a defender cos if they do their job right, no one says anything. but if something does get thru the firewall they get heaps of crap =p whereas the web team (like me) is like a striker.. cos if we screw up 20 times thats ok.. cos nothing is in production.. but every now and then we make something good.. and we get heaps of praise =) hehe
in other news: *gasp*
