McAfee Wireless Home Network Security – Coming Up!

Back in January, I mentioned McAfee Wireless Home Network Security, and how it got me thinking about securing a home network more easily with a one-stop solution.

It took me longer than I’d have liked, but I finally got around to checking it out near the end of April and worked it in as my research paper for my Wireless Networking and Appliances class. The experience was both a surprise and a let-down at the same time, so it proved to be a worthwhile experiment in the end.

I want to do this up right (with screenshots and what not), so it’s going to take a while yet for me to get the post together, but I wanted to let everyone know it was coming. Stay tuned for more details!

To Arms, My Monkey-Loving Friends!

Imagine my unbridled glee when I got to work this morning after class, revved up NetNewsWire, and saw this:

Security Monkey Posts

Any Monday that starts off with a new Security Monkey blog entry can’t be all bad. His chimpy goodness hath been bestowed on me, and that was like an omen, telling me that the rest of the day was going to be alright.

Boy, those skies clouded up really quick:

ITToolbox Blogs are Dead

Oh, the humanity… How can they do this to me? Some IIS-loving BOFH at ITToolbox needs to be FIRED for farking up their blogs. This transgression shall not stand, I tell you!

To arms, my monkey-loving friends, to armmmssss! We shall storm the castle and force them to give us their monkey secrets! They can’t stop us, I tell you! Victory and bannannas shall be ours!

My Search History Trends…

I’ve never really put a lot of thought into how much I search online. I mean, I know it’s a lot, and I don’t know how I’d live without Google these days – but as far as actual numbers go, it never crossed my mind what a ballpark figure would be.

Even though I live most of my life online, and am in front of a computer 12+ hours out of every day, I imagine I’m a tad on the low end of the scale. Still, it was interesting when I noticed the ‘Trends’ section of my Google Search History:

My Google Search Trends

You also get a good bit more information about your top search keywords and the like, none of which was particularly of interest to me in my own results. Still, simply having a number of searches I do every month / day / hour is quite interesting, just to prove what an addict I am.

What’s yours like? You still object to letting Google track your search history (as if they didn’t already)?
