Links of the Day: Feb 18, 2008
Data Centre Knowledge reports on Speed
Cabling and links to another
story and the official site.
Crimping tools at 20 paces. What will they think of next?!?
Stilgherrian links
to a
story at El Reg on the cable cut rumours.
Speaking of the cable cuts, the Beebs has a nice article
covering all the basics and Steve Bellovin stirred the
rumour pot earlier this month.

Internet "news" and those cable cuts.
I've followed with interest the cable cuts in the Med and Middle East that have
seen rumour layered upon rumour and every armchair commentator lathered in to a
frenzy with conspiracy theories.
There has been excellent coverage at the
Renesys blog (Parts 1,
2,
3,
quash
Iran rumours, 4,
summary)
and Data Centre Knowledge has
been linking to lots of sane
coverage.
It's always struck me as rather odd that just because the Internet enables
everyone to have a say that everyone feels they should exercise that capability
at every opportunity on topics that they know very little.
People do strange things on the Internet. Film at 11.
