Our cities today are relics from a time before the Internet. Services and infrastructure, created and operated by the government, are centrally managed, non-participatory and closed. And while this was once the best (and only) way for cities to operate, today it leads to a system that is inefficient, increasingly expensive to maintain, and slow to change.

Andrew Cuomo Charity Scams?
by starmuscle
A charity operated by "Get Smart" actress Anne Hathaway's boyfriend is being investigated by New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, the New York Post reported.
Until recently, Hathaway's beau, 29-year-old Italian businessman Raffaello Follieri, sat on the children's charity's board of directors, The Post reported.
Cuomo's office refused to tell the Post why it was investigating the Manhattan-based charity, which says its programs include vaccinating Third World children.
Cuomo's probe comes two months after Follieri was arrested in Manhattan on charges that he bounced a $215,000 check ÃÂ written against an account that a source said had just $39 in it ÃÂ to a New Jersey man for services to his real-estate company, the Follieri Group. Charges were dropped in May.
Earlier this year, Follieri settled a lawsuit filed by Los Angeles billionaire Ron Burkle, who accused him and the Follieri Group of "systematically misappropriating" at least $1.3 million of more than $55 million that Burkle's company had contributed to a joint venture to buy and redevelop Catholic Church properties.
Burkle's suit said Follieri used the money to fund an extravagant lifestyle that included private jet travel for himself and Hathaway, as well as for loans of hundreds of thousands of dollars to the foundation.

About Dopplr

How does Dopplr work? It lets you share your future travel plans with a group of trusted fellow travellers whom you have chosen. It also reminds you of friends and colleagues who live in the cities you're planning to visit. You can use the service with your personal computer and mobile phone.
The Dopplr "beta" service is open by invitation only. Once invited by an existing member you will be able to invite others to join Dopplr and share your travels.

Web feed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
by pvergain
Webfeed is a data format used for serving users frequently updated content. Content distributors syndicate a web feed, thereby allowing users to subscribe to it. Making a collection of web feeds accessible in one spot is known as aggregation.
In the typical scenario of using web feeds, a content provider publishes a feed link on their site which end users can register with an aggregator program (also called a feed reader or a news reader) running on their own machines; doing this is usually as simple as dragging the link from the web browser to the aggregator. When instructed, the aggregator asks all the servers in its feed list if they have new content; if so, the aggregator either makes a note of the new content or downloads it. Aggregators can be scheduled to check for new content periodically.
The kinds of content delivered by a web feed are typically HTML (webpage content) or links to webpages and other kinds of digital media. Often when websites provide web feeds to notify users of content updates, they only include summaries in the web feed rather than the full content itself.
Web feeds are operated by many news web sites, weblogs, schools, and podcasters.

WinSCP :: Supported Transfer Protocols
by realmip
SFTP is mostly operated as subsystem of SSH-2. SFTP is a newer and more modern protocol, designed to perform in a manner similar to FTP. It is widely supported, even on non-Unix-like platforms, but not nearly as universally as SCP. Do not confuse SFTP (based on SSH) with FTPS/Secure FTP (based on SSL); they are distinct protocols which do not interoperate.
