Randy Cassingham's Bonzer Web Sites of the Week: Recognizing Interesting Sites that are Beyond the Microsoft/AOL-Time Warner/Media Megalith

Broadband Security FAQ

This whole site is a good one, so take a look around. But this particular page is excellent, and something everyone with broadband Internet connections (DSL, cable modems, etc.) needs to be aware of. This FAQ (list of Frequently Asked Questions) covers security questions that people with broadband might have. "If I am on the net 24 hours a day, will I get hacked?" and "I think my computer is infected or hijacked. What should I do?" and "How do I secure a wireless network?" The answers to the questions are good, detailed, and at a level that most can understand. An excellent resource.

High-Speed Society: Social Acceleration, Power, and Modernity
By: Hartmut RosaWilliam E. Scheuerman
List Price: $55.00
Amazon Price: $55.00
Editorial Review:

Everywhere life seems to be speeding up: we talk of "fast food" and "speed dating." But what does the phenomenon of social acceleration really entail, and how new is it? While much has been written about our high?speed society in the popular media, serious academic analysis has lagged behind, and what literature there is comes more from Europe than America. This collection of essays is a first step at exposing readers on this side of the Atlantic to the importance of this phenomenon and at developing some preliminary conceptual categories for better understanding it.

Among the major questions the volume addresses are these: Is acceleration occurring across all sectors of society and all dimensions of life, or is it affecting some more than others? Where is life not speeding up, and what results from this disparity? What are the fundamental causes of acceleration, as well as its consequences for everyday experience? How does it affect our political and legal institutions? How much speed can we tolerate?

The volume tackles these questions in three sections. Part I offers a selection of astute early analyses of acceleration as experienced in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Part II samples recent attempts at analyzing social acceleration, including translations of the work of leading European thinkers. Part III explores its political implications.

High speed cable modems are the technical link that will bring the Internet and video-on-demand to the cable-ready TVs in our homes.
