Tuesday Links: Photos from Interop, Windows Packaging Systems, and Optimizing for the Digg Effect
Information Week: Computer Ablaze in Las Vegas Desert I’m sorry I missed this while at Interop. I would have brought marshmallows.

Interop Coverage: Leaving Las Vegas
I’m in the McCarran airport and, thanks to free wi-fi, I can update the blog. We’ll have a rundown of our Interop experiences next when we all get back into the office, but in the meantime, Network World has a slideshow of interesting Interop happenings. They also mentioned NetQos in a story called “WAN optimization, [...]

Interop Day 2: An Interview with Glenn Evans, Lead Network Engineer at Interop
By Brian Boyko Glenn Evans cheekily lists his title as “Supreme Ruler” on his official Interop badge. This is no delusion of grandeur.

Interop Coverage, part one
By Brian Boyko Greetings from Las Vegas, where the NetQoS team is getting ready for Interop, which starts tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. After crossing the Southwest via airplane, and a slight snafu checking into my room, I was able to start taking a couple pictures to share with you guys from the Interop conference.

Thursday Links: Old flaws, different IPv6; Windows Home Server goes OEM, and EWeek speculation on Google Tagline
Ars Technica: Old IPv4 flaws resurface with IPv6 Ars Technica talks about a security flaw – long since disabled in IPv4 but re-enabled in IPv6 – that could lead to network traffic problems. “Source routing” isn’t exactly a new invention: it dates back to the original IPv4 specification. With this option, the sender of a [...]

Tuesday Links: Console Net Monitoring, ATA over Ethernet, and MacGyvering RJ-45
I’m Mike: Top 5 Unix Network Monitoring Utilities This really should be “Top 5 Console-based” monitoring utilities for smaller networks. Our network monitoring tools were left off the list, probably because our offerings are designed to monitor large enterprises instead of smaller networks, and are web-based rather than console based.

Wafaa The Sane: A look at the effect of the new media on old human questions.
Wafaa Bilal is a man being driven slowly insane, and I think I may have had something to do with it. For those of you unfamiliar with the story – which we’ve covered previously – Iraqi-American artist Wafaa Bilal has locked himself in a room for 30 days with a paintball gun, which can be [...]
