Website of the Day: Lost Photos

Back in the day before Facebook, there was a time when one of the only ways to share digital photos was through email. That adds up to years of photos lost in various email accounts, hidden between hundreds of pieces of spam and daily deal messages. Now, with the Lost Photos app, there’s a way to uncover these pics and transfer them to your current social networks.

Available in the Mac App Store for $2.99 and free for Windows, Lost Photos searches through your Gmail/Google Apps, Yahoo, and MobileMe/.Mac accounts for photos. Once they’re found, you can quickly share the photos across social networks and import them into your iPhoto library. With one simple app, access old memories for a flashback to your pre-Facebook 2004 shenanigans. (Mashable.com)

On Reddit, Rapists Say They’re Sorry

A Reddit thread circulating the Internet on Friday tells the “other side of the story” with accounts from rapists.

On Thursday, a Redditor started a thread soliciting comments from rapists by writing, “Reddit’s had a few threads about sexual assault victims, but are there any Redditors from the other side of the story?” According to a Jezebel report, the original Redditor also asked, “What were your motivations? Do you regret it?”

More than 11,000 people have commented on the thread, with votes up and down split nearly even. One of Friday’s top comments came from a self-identified “post-college aged male” who admitted to raping “several women through use of coercion, alcohol, and other tactics over a course of 3 years.” He went on to write that he feels bad and has since changed his ways, adding that he’s now a “fervent volunteer in the community.” Some of the commenters explained that they thought the women they assaulted had “wanted it” or that women need to better protect themselves from uncontrollable men. Other commenters, not surprisingly, were horrified by what they read.

As the day went on the thread was filled with more comments from victims of rape and sexual assault, as well as stories from men who “almost” raped someone.

Reddit has long had a reputation for lacking credibility. For a long time, it’s been filled with memes and other viral content, but lately more legitimate and informed conversations have started on the site.

So will the people who claimed to have committed rape in the past ever be prosecuted due to this thread? Probably not.

Users have a right to free speech but there is a fine line between First Amendment rights and saying something incriminating. For law enforcement to go after people on Reddit who claim to have committed rape, their posts would have to be more factual (with names and dates, for example) to warrant investigators getting subpoenas to look into their backgrounds. As is, these Redditor’s admission are simply hearsay.

Should the commenters who admitted to rape on this thread be investigated by law enforcement? Tell us in the comments. (Mashable.com)

6 Key Software Updates You Should Be Doing

Have you updated the software on your computer?

A recent survey by Skype suggests that 40% of users don’t do so when prompted, with 25% of them not understanding why they should.

Software updates are released for three reasons: to patch a security hole, to fix bugs and to add features.

Security updates are the most important. Periodically, hackers find vulnerabilities in software that can allow accessing your files, tracking what you type and even taking full control of your computer. Timely updates can keep you safe.

How to Check for Updates

Most software now includes the ability to periodically check for updates. Apple’s App Store and Microsoft’s Marketplace check for updates to software purchased through them.

Microsoft’s upcoming Windows 8 can be set to “wake” your computer up at night, even if it’s not turned on, and check for updates.

Apple’s new OS X Mountain Lion operating system does something similar with its “Power Nap” feature that allows downloading and installing updates while the computer “sleeps” in low power mode. Though these options greatly simplify installing updates, many still require your approval, so pay attention and respond when they prompt you.

What Needs Updating?

Any software code on your computer may need an update at some point. But these are the six most important categories:

1. Operating Systems

The operating system essentially controls everything and inevitably offers many vulnerabilities that Apple and Microsoft regularly discover and patch. You should install updates as soon as you see a prompt to do so, or set the computer to install them automatically.

2. Web Browsers

Web browsers are constantly evolving and need to be secure due to their direct access to the internet. Updates for Microsoft’s Internet Explorer and Apple’s Safari are provided through the operating systems update process. Google’s Chrome, and more recently Mozilla’s Firefox both get automatic updates, so no checking is required.

3. Productivity Software

Applications like Microsoft Office or Adobe Creative Suite only occasionally need security updates, but more often need bug fixes that prevent crashes, freezes and commands not behaving the way they are supposed to.

4. Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware Software

New malware, including Trojans and viruses, emerge daily. This is why your anti-virus software should be set to automatically update itself at least on a daily basis.

5. Supporting Software

Packages like Adobe Flash and Reader, Sun Java and Microsoft Silverlight play a supporting role for many applications and file types. Due to their popularity, they are often the target of hackers. It is especially important to update this type of software as soon as you see an alert.

6. Firmware and Drivers

Firmware tells your computer hardware what it can do, and drivers allow the rest of your software to access the hardware. Firmware updates most often expand the capabilities of your hardware. As an example, an Apple firmware update enables the new Power Nap feature. Driver updates most often fix bugs and expand features, such as providing additional display resolutions for larger screens.

US man’s ‘confession’ obituary goes viral

LOS ANGELES—A US man’s self-written obituary, in which he reminisces about the good times – and makes a few confessions, including never having earned the PhD he claimed in life – has gone viral.

Val Patterson, who died of throat cancer last week, professed his abiding love for his wife and remembered the joy of being young in Utah. But he also admitted to some things he shouldn’t have done.

“As it turns out, I AM the guy who stole the safe from the Motor View Drive Inn back in June, 1971. I could have left that unsaid, but I wanted to get it off my chest,” he said in the obituary in the Salt Lake Tribune.

“Also, I really am NOT a PhD. What happened was that the day I went to pay off my college student loan… the girl working there put my receipt into the wrong stack, and two weeks later a PhD diploma came in the mail.

“I didn’t even graduate, I only had about three years of college credit. In fact, I never did even learn what the letters ‘PhD’ even stood for.”

The 59-year-old described himself as an “artist, inventor, business man, ribald comedian, husband, brother, son, cat lover, cynic.

“I had a lot of fun,” he wrote.

“It was an honor for me to be friends with some truly great people. I thank you. I’ve had great joy living and playing with my dog, my cats and my parrot.

“But, the one special thing that made my spirit whole, is my long love and friendship with my remarkable wife, my beloved Mary Jane. I loved her more than I have words to express.”

Nonetheless, he said: “My regret is that I felt invincible when young and smoked cigarettes when I knew they were bad for me.

“Now, to make it worse, I have robbed my beloved Mary Jane of a decade or more of the two of us growing old together and laughing at all the thousands of simple things that we have come to enjoy.”

He concluded: “If you knew me or not, dear reader, I am happy you got this far into my letter. I speak as a person who had a great life to look back on.

“If you knew me, remember me in your own way. If you want to live forever, then don’t stop breathing, like I did.”

The online obituary was linked to a memorial video on the website of a local funeral parlor – which crashed Tuesday under the weight of people trying to log on to see more, at one point receiving 100,000 hits a minute.

Here's the actual obituary written by Val.

I was Born in Salt Lake City, March 27th 1953. I died of Throat Cancer on July 10th 2012. I went to six different grade schools, then to Churchill, Skyline and the U of U. I loved school, Salt Lake City, the mountains, Utah. I was a true Scientist. Electronics, chemistry, physics, auto mechanic, wood worker, artist, inventor, business man, ribald comedian, husband, brother, son, cat lover, cynic. I had a lot of fun. It was an honor for me to be friends with some truly great people. I thank you.  I’ve had great joy living and playing with my dog, my cats and my parrot. But, the one special thing that made my spirit whole, is my long love and friendship with my remarkable wife, my beloved Mary Jane. I loved her more than I have words to express. Every moment spent with my Mary Jane was time spent wisely. Over time, I became one with her, inseparable, happy, fulfilled. I enjoyed one good life. Traveled to every place on earth that I ever wanted to go. Had every job that I wanted to have. Learned all that I wanted to learn. Fixed everything I wanted to fix. Eaten everything I wanted to eat. My life motto was: “Anything for a Laugh”. Other mottos were “If you can break it, I can fix it”, “Don’t apply for a job, create one”. I had three requirements for seeking a great job; 1 – All glory, 2 – Top pay, 3 - No work.

Now that I have gone to my reward, I have confessions and things I should now say. As it turns out, I AM the guy who stole the safe from the Motor View Drive Inn back in June, 1971. I could have left that unsaid, but I wanted to get it off my chest. Also, I really am NOT a PhD. What happened was that the day I went to pay off my college student loan at the U of U, the girl working there put my receipt into the wrong stack, and two weeks later, a PhD diploma came in the mail. I didn’t even graduate, I only had about 3 years of college credit. In fact, I never did even learn what the letters “PhD” even stood for. For all of the Electronic Engineers I have worked with, I’m sorry, but you have to admit my designs always worked very well, and were well engineered, and I always made you laugh at work. Now to that really mean Park Ranger; after all, it was me that rolled those rocks into your geyser and ruined it. I did notice a few years later that you did get Old Faithful working again. To Disneyland – you can now throw away that “Banned for Life” file you have on me, I’m not a problem anymore – and SeaWorld San Diego, too, if you read this.

To the gang: We grew up in the very best time to grow up in the history of America. The best music, muscle cars, cheap gas, fun kegs, buying a car for “a buck a year” -- before Salt Lake got ruined by over population and Lake Powell was brand new. TV was boring back then, so we went outside and actually had lives. We always tried to have as much fun as possible without doing harm to anybody - we did a good job at that.

If you are trying to decide if you knew me, this might help… My father was RD “Dale” Patterson, older brother “Stan” Patterson, and sister “Bunny” who died in a terrible car wreck when she was a Junior at Skyline. My mom “Ona” and brother “Don” are still alive and well. In college I worked at Vaughns Conoco on 45th South and 29th East. Mary and I are the ones who worked in Saudi Arabia for 8 years when we were young. Mary Jane is now a Fitness Instructor at Golds on Van Winkle – you might be one of her students – see what a lucky guy I am? Yeah, no kidding.

My regret is that I felt invincible when young and smoked cigarettes when I knew they were bad for me. Now, to make it worse, I have robbed my beloved Mary Jane of a decade or more of the two of us growing old together and laughing at all the thousands of simple things that we have come to enjoy and fill our lives with such happy words and moments. My pain is enormous, but it pales in comparison to watching my wife feel my pain as she lovingly cares for and comforts me. I feel such the “thief” now - for stealing so much from her - there is no pill I can take to erase that pain.

If you knew me or not, dear reader, I am happy you got this far into my letter. I speak as a person who had a great life to look back on. My family is following my wishes that I not have a funeral or burial. If you knew me, remember me in your own way. If you want to live forever, then don’t stop breathing, like I did.

Digg Is Being Rebuilt From Scratch And Needs Your Help

More than a week after news surfaced that the once popular site Digg was purchased for $500,000 by Betaworks, its new parent company said it will be rebuilding it from scratch in the next six weeks. And it wants your help.

“We are a startup team with ambitious principles and we need to move quickly,” according to the post on rethinkdigg.com. “The old Digg infrastructure was expensive and it afforded us little latitude to innovate and build at a fast clip. So four weeks ago, we set an a aggressive goal to move to a new infrastructure by August 1. We are starting with a fresh code base — it’s modern, it’s fast and it’s shiny and new.”

The team — made of 10 engineers, designers and editors by a team at News.me — said that “after an adrenaline and caffeine-fueled six weeks,” it plans to roll out the latest version.

“With this launch, we’re taking the first step towards (re)making Digg the best place to find, read and share the most interesting and talked about stories on the Internet — and we want your help.”

SEE ALSO: Digg: The Rise and Fall of an Internet Darling

The company urges Digg fans to take a short survey to help it strategize the redesign. Questions range from evaluating the quality of stories on the homepage, if you would recommend the current version to a friend and what type of phone you own.

“We care because Digg represented the messiness of the Internet at its best,” the site said. “It showed us that, out of the noise and the clutter, between the lolcats and the Kim Kardashian stories, a passionate but uncoordinated group of strangers could come together to create something coherent and substantial.”

It continued: “Alone, each of these individuals had no following, but together they were able to capture a global audience with stories that the mainstream media had mistakenly deemed unimportant. Digg is worth protecting. To do that, we need your help, your input and your support.”

Digg: The Rise and Fall of an Internet Darling

Digg was once the epicenter of Internet cool and culture. It was a content king maker: get your story on Digg’s homepage and watch the traffic roll in. Then came the precipitous fall from grace and, finally, a less-than-exciting-sale to Betaworks (for a reported $500,000) last week. The news left many in the web community stunned. How had did a company that had risen so quickly and gained a massive, grassroots group of fans fall so far?

Digg was founded in 2004, and handily rose to become one of the most popular social news aggregators. Yet the decisions made in the site’s design over the years drove users away in droves in 2009 and 2010.

In the timeline below, we examine how Digg rose to success, and missteps that lead to its downfall. Were you a regular user of Digg? Do you still use it? Let us know what you think in the comments.

Dec. 5, 2004: Digg is Launched

Kevin Rose, Owen Byrne, Ron Gorodetsky and Jay Adelson start Digg, a community-based news aggregator, with a $6,000 investment from then 27-year-old Rose. The team dubbed the site “Digg” because dig.com was already owned by Disney.

May 1, 2005: Diggnation First Broadcast

Rose and Alex Albrecht start a weekly video broadcast titled Diggnation, where they discussed the top content from Digg as well as other humor. The podcast became a huge success, and the pair even took their show on the road to many tech conferences including SXSW.

Oct. 28, 2005: Digg Gets Funding

Digg received $2.5 million in funding from Omidyar Network, Marc Andreessen, and Greylock partners.

Summer, 2006: Success Finds Digg

As of June, 2006, Digg moved to expand its verticals beyond technology, to include science, world news, business, entertainment and video. The company is on the right track; in August, Rose is featured on the cover of BusinessWeek.

In September, Digg's staff receives an additional $1 million in startup funding, this time for their podcasting arm Revision3. The New York Post releases a study valuing Digg at $250 million.

July 27, 2008: Google Attempts To Purchase Digg

Reports surfaced that Google was final talks to buy Digg for about $200 million. Although the purchase never happened, it showed how in demand Digg and its talent was.

Shortly after, Digg received $28.7 million from Highland Capital Partners, further helping their perceived value.

April 2, 2009: DiggBar Released

Digg released the DiggBar to ensure users who left their site would return. It put a small bar on the top of pages visited through Digg, allowing users to upvote or bury the story. Because it was somewhat invasive, it wasn't popular with users.

Aug. 6, 2009: Diggable Advertisments

In an effort to increase advertising revenue while providing a seamless experience for users, Digg released ads that appeared on the homepage with the rest of the user-submitted content. The pieces were clearly marked as sponsored, and weren't a big hit with the site's users.

Aug. 25, 2010: Digg Launches Version 4.0

Digg made dramatic changes to its interface to counter its declining traffic numbers. Digg 4.0 spent more than a month in alpha testing, and it was released to much fanfare.

Aug. 31, 2010: Problems, and a new CEO

Digg's new version caused angry users to flee en masse, and turn to Reddit to vent their frustrations.

Additionally, Rose gave up his role as CEO, turning the reins over to former Amazon executive Matt Williams, who still retains the role. Rose said he would remain at Digg, but turn the "day to day" operations over to Williams.

Oct. 3, 2011: Diggnation Stops Casting

Diggnation announces it will air its final episodes in January of the next year, marking an end to the six-year-long run. It had more than 400 episodes after the two-part finale ended.

March 18, 2011: Kevin Rose Leaves Digg

Kevin Rose announced in a tweet that he was leaving Digg, after two days of rumors. “I’ll continue advising Digg [and serve] on the board of directors and taping Diggnation (as I have been since [Matt Williams] joined).”

Rose went on to work on his own startup company, MIlk, which put out only one app -- Oink -- before shutting its doors. He was then hired by Google almost a year later.

July 12, 2012: Digg Sold to Betaworks

Digg was sold to Betaworks, a New York-based startup who focuses on news products. The price was reported as $500,000 originally, but CEO Matt Williams said that was only for the assets, and the number was higher.

With Rose gone and many of the Digg staff being folded into Betaworks, what will Digg's future hold?

Firefox 14 Released For Windows, Mac, Linux – Download Now!

Mozilla’s Firefox has been around for quite a while now, and despite Google continually pushing updates of its fast-growing Chrome browser, Firefox has continued to remain resilient, altering its own release schedule in a bid to stay relevant. Hence, here we are at Firefox 14, and just six weeks after Firefox 13 was seeded on Mozilla’s servers, and the fourteenth iteration still manages to offer a bunch of useful changes.

The main focus of Firefox 14, it would seem, is improving security, and although Mozilla’s number one browser hasn’t exactly gained notoriety for security lapses, the changes are most certainly welcome. For starters, Google searches are now automatically encrypted, and there’s added support for the Pointer Lock API. In addition, those running on OS X 10.7 can now enjoy full-screen browsing.

The clincher has to be the Google search encryption though, and according to Mozilla, Google search data is encrypted by default, while users can also verify a website’s identity readily by clicking the icon situated to the left hand side of the URL bar. The heightened security will benefit all users of Firefox, and in particular, those on wireless connections who’re naturally more susceptible to intrusion.

Pointer Lock will offer improved mouse control, which is particularly handy for those frequently using web-based apps or games. Seems as though Firefox is preparing its browser for the point when HTML5 becomes the coding language of choice, and Pointer Lock is a prime example.

The six week release schedule has been a hot topic of debate around Mozilla from the get-go, with some developers questioning whether the move prompted users to migrate over to Chrome. While I would say releasing a point update so frequently might have bamboozled a few users at first, I do believe the frequent releases are beneficial on the whole, keeping Firefox in the news while also allowing Mozilla to deliver decent features month in, month out.

Whatever your opinions may be of how Mozilla goes about its business, you can download Firefox 14 from the official links provided below. Even if you’re not a big HTML5 gamer, this one’s worth it for the added search security.

• Download Firefox 14 for Windows
• Download Firefox 14 for Mac
• Download Firefox 14 for Linux

Cyber war on Iran has only just begun

WASHINGTON – A US cyber war against Iran’s nuclear program may have only just begun and could escalate with explosions triggered by digital sabotage, experts say.

Although the Iranian regime remains vulnerable to more cyber attacks in the aftermath of the “Stuxnet” worm that disrupted its uranium enrichment work, Tehran may be receiving help from Russian proxies for its digital security, some analysts say.

The nuclear program is “really not that well protected” from more digital assaults and Iran will be hard-pressed to safeguard its uranium enrichment efforts from tainted software, said David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security.

“With Stuxnet, they lost about a year. And it caused a lot of confusion. They really didn’t know what hit them,” he said. “It looks like a viable way to disrupt their program.”

The United States, which reportedly masterminded the Stuxnet operation along with Israel, has every incentive to press ahead with a cyber campaign to undermine Iran’s atomic ambitions, according to analysts.

The next cyber attack, possibly in combination with more traditional spycraft, could shut off valves or issue incorrect orders that might cause an explosion at a sensitive site.

“I think that it could get more violent,” Albright told AFP. “I would expect more facilities to blow up.”

A major explosion at a missile plant in Iran in November sparked speculation that the incident was the result of sabotage.

“There is of course the possibility of sending in a team to modify a system in a way that would make it vulnerable, and then use a cyber weapon at a later date as a trigger event,” said David Lindahl, research engineer at the Swedish Defense Research Agency.

A new wave of cyber attacks could involve inserting hardware with infected chips into the industrial process, possibly through an agent or a duped employee, or penetrating diagnostic software used to gauge uranium enrichment or other work, Lindahl said.

But some cyber security experts suspect Russian proxies could be assisting Iran with its digital defenses, and possibly helped Tehran trace the origins of Stuxnet.

“The part that we probably miscalculated on in Stuxnet was the (possible) assistance of the Russians in attribution,” said James Lewis, senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

“The Iranians never would have figured this out on their own,” said Lewis, a former senior government official with the Departments of State and Commerce.

The elaborate Stuxnet malware, which was reportedly introduced using a thumb drive, contained malicious code that caused centrifuges used to enrich uranium to spin out of control. The worm, meanwhile, sent back signals to operators indicating the centrifuges were operating normally.

After the malware was discovered in 2010, at least a thousand centrifuges had to be removed and analysts estimate Tehran’s program was set back by at least a year.

By pushing the boundaries of cyber warfare, the United States has left itself open to retaliation. But US officials clearly view the risks associated with digital strikes as dwarfed by the dangers of an all-out war with Iran.

Bombing raids are “more likely to explode the region and certainly could lead to a conflict with Iran, and that would be very messy,” said Lewis. “Cyber is much cleaner.”

Although unnamed officials told The New York Times that the United States and Israel were behind the digital operations, cyber attacks – unlike air strikes – allow for “plausible deniability,” he said.

The Stuxnet worm broke new ground by successfully hijacking a program designed to supervise power plants or other large industrial systems, said Sean McGurk, a consultant who previously led cyber security efforts at the Department of Homeland Security.

“Stuxnet demonstrated going from a disruptive capability to a destructive capability and that’s what made it unique,” he said.

The super virus also was unusual for the way it sought out a specific target while sidestepping systems that did not fit certain criteria.

“Almost all cyberattacks are ‘to whom it may concern’ but Stuxnet was a bullet with someone’s name on it,” Lindahl said.

“Repeating something like Stuxnet or (computer virus) Flame will be much more difficult, because they (the Iranians) will spend a lot more energy trying to stop those activities,” he added.

“But the defender needs to plug all holes, while the attacker need only find one.”

Wikipedia Is Running Out of Editors and Admins

Wikipedia is a wonderful resource, the kind of website that makes you marvel at what the internet can achieve. But it's only as good as its contributors and, while some are extremely committed, the sad truth is that the project is running out of editors and new admins.

The Atlantic reports from Wikimania, the official Wikimedia conference, that "volunteer editing of Wikipedia is on a long decline". Of course, you want figures.

Try these. The total number of active English Wikipedia editors making five edits or more a month is down from a peak of over 50,000 in the summer of 2007 to just 30,000 this year. In October 2005, Wikimedia elected 67 administrators, and a typical month around that time would see the number reach at least 40 or 50. Nowadays, that figure is in the single digits.

It's not at death's door yet, obviously. But the voluntary work required to maintain the open-source site most of us use every day is currently being spread across a dwindling team of contributors. Fortunately, Wikimedia is aware of the problem, and plans to do something about it. From the Atlantic:

Wikimedia is planning on beta-testing a new WYSIWYG text editor last this year, to make it easier for new authors to join the Wikipedia legion. And it's adjusting design elements to make it clearer to new visitors that Wikipedia can be edited: the site's ubiquity is such that many web users just don't know about its greatest feature.

Whether that will be enough to engage users remains to be seen. It does, however, serve as a compelling reminder that we all can, and should, contribute to the site. [The Atlantic]

The Story Behind the First Photo Ever Posted on the Web

That monstrosity above is the ur-picture, the very first photograph — slightly doctored, apparently — ever posted to the web. The picture is of the Cernettes, a comedy band based at CERN, the laboratory near Geneva where particles collide giving us clues to the first few milliseconds of the Universe’s existence and where, two decades ago, the World Wide Web was born.

The story, as reported by Abraham Riesman at Motherboard, begins at a Cernettes concert on July 18, 1992. Before the women went onstage, the band’s manager, Silvano de Gennaro, snapped a picture of them that he hoped to use for the cover of their next CD. Here’s the original photo:

Soon after, Tim Berners-Lee approached de Gennaro for a guinea-pig image — a picture he could use to test his recent upgrades to the web. As Riesman reports:

Lucky for him, de Gennaro had been toying around with a scanned .gif version of the July 18th photo, using version one of Photoshop on his color Macintosh. The .gif format was only five years old at the time, but its efficient compression had made it the best way to edit color images without slowing PCs to a crawl.

“The web, back in ’92 and ’93, was exclusively used by physicists,” de Gennaro recalled. “I was like, ‘Why do you want to put the Cernettes on that? It’s only text!’ And he said, ‘No, it’s gonna be fun!’”

Berners-Lee handed the file off to Jean-François Groff, a programmer on the web project. He was only too happy to work with it.

The upload was simple and uneventful — uploads of anything on the early web were more like saving a word-processing doc than anything else, Groff recalled. It popped up on a page about musical acts at CERN.

The story, and the picture itself in some senses, presages a lot of the ways we use web art today — among friends, to mark a particular moment, maybe altered with a dash of light-hearted photoshopping to really make it shine. The picture may not be beautiful, but, in some ways, it’s just perfect.
