by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Nov. 14, 2014

Nov. 14, 2014

Very interesting news, especially for Chromebook users, and for those on the road or using another computer to chat without the Skype desktop client. >From http://blogs.skype.com/2014/11/14/please-welcome-skype-for-web-beta/ "..We’re starting to roll-out a brand new way of using Skype. Now, not only can Skype be used on just about any screen you lay your hands on, but you can also enjoy Skype on a browser. Welcome, Skype for Web (Beta). Skype for Web makes it quicker and easier than ever before to connect with friends, family and colleagues around the world, for free – directly from Skype.com. You can use Skype for Web without having to download an app before you get started, which means anyone new to Skype can get chatting even faster. Simply sign in to Skype for Web on Skype.com and you’ll be able to connect and start instant messaging directly from your browser.... ...You can connect to Skype for Web from Internet Explorer (10+), Chrome on Windows, Firefox or Safari on your computer .."

Request for Member feedback
by Glenn McKnight Nov. 11, 2014

Nov. 11, 2014

Hi On today's call one of the agenda items was an appeal to the community to propose ideas for our future call. One of the major ideas came from Gordon Chillcott who suggested that we need to survey our membership. A survey was done in 2004 and we need revisit this survey to update and make it relevant to technological innovations. We will be asking everyone to suggest their ideas for the monthly sessions, suggestions for product demos and much more. Key in the monthly calls and survey is improve the ICANN ecospace with technology innovations, not to emphasize technology because it's a new and shiney . Thanks all for participating Glenn McKnight Vice Chair Technology Taskforce Glenn McKnight mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com skype gmcknight twitter gmcknight .

EFF's 'Secure Messaging Scorecard' Rates Digital Communication Tools San Francisco - In the face of widespread Internet data collection and surveillance, we need a secure and practical means of talking to each other from our phones and computers. Many companies offer "secure messaging" products - but how can users know if these systems actually secure? The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) released its Secure Messaging Scorecard today, evaluating dozens of messaging technologies on a range of security best practices. "The revelations from Edward Snowden confirm that governments are spying on our digital lives, devouring all communications that aren't protected by encryption," said EFF Technology Projects Director Peter Eckersley. "Many new tools claim to protect you, but don't include critical features like end-to-end encryption or secure deletion. This scorecard gives you the facts you need to choose the right technology to send your message." The scorecard includes more than three dozen tools, including chat clients, text messaging apps, email applications, and technologies for voice and video calls. EFF examined them on seven factors, like whether the message is encrypted both in-transit and at the provider level, and if the code is audited and open to independent review. Six of these tools scored all seven stars, including ChatSecure, CryptoCat, Signal/Redphone, Silent Phone, Silent Text, and TextSecure. Apple's iMessage and FaceTime products stood out as the best of the mass-market options, although neither currently provides complete protection against sophisticated, targeted forms of surveillance. Many options--including Google, Facebook, and Apple's email products, Yahoo's web and mobile chat, Secret, and WhatsApp--lack the end-to-end encryption that is necessary to protect against disclosure by the service provider. Several major messaging platforms, like QQ, Mxit, and the desktop version of Yahoo Messenger, have no encryption at all. "We're focused on improving the tools that everyday users need to communicate with friends, family members, and colleagues," said EFF Staff Attorney Nate Cardozo. "We hope the Secure Messaging Scorecard will start a race-to-the-top, spurring innovation in stronger and more usable cryptography." The Secure Messaging Scorecard is part of EFF's new Campaign for Secure and Usable Cryptography, and was produced in collaboration with Julia Angwin at ProPublica and Joseph Bonneau at the Princeton Center for Information Technology Policy. For the full Secure Messaging Scorecard: https://www.eff.org/secure-messaging-scorecard For this release: https://www.eff.org/press/releases/which-messaging-technologies-are-truly-s… About EFF The Electronic Frontier Foundation is the leading organization protecting civil liberties in the digital world.

Limited number of preview spots available to test Skype Translator Preview
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh Nov. 4, 2014

Nov. 4, 2014

Microsoft has announced that a limited number of preview spots are available to test Skype Translator. >From the Skype Translator page: http://www.skype.com/en/translator-preview/, here's what Skype Translate will do: Speak another language without learning another language. Simply set up a Skype video or voice call with someone who speaks another language to you and start talking. * Your conversation is translated into their language in real time. * And what they say is translated back in your language. * An on-screen transcript of your call is displayed. * Instant message chats in 45 languages can be translated. In September 2014, Microsoft did a live demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJIILew6l28 Dev Anand
