Squirrel!!
Seth Earley says that in his talks with CIOs and CTOs, the two biggest issues they have are "Staying up to date with new capabilities that the business either wants or needs, and Building the foundational data capabilities to enable digital agility." He argues that "Shiny new technologies such as cognitive computing, AI, bots, the Internet of Things (IoT), personalization, and machine learning have their intrinsic conceptual appeal, but novelty should not be confused with business value." To hear about why Seth there is still hope, you need to read more at Earley Information Science: Shiny Things and Bad Data: The Two Biggest Challenges Facing CIO's and CTO's

Dying, Not Dead
While the password is dying, it would appear that voice recognition and lip reading will not be two technologies immediately replacing it. While HSBC says "each person having a unique voice, measured through 100 different characteristics," a mans twin was able to gain some access. (Sounds to me like the HSBC systems' major problem is not voice recognition but rather the number of attempts it allows.) Lip reading is a subset of facial recognition and has several issues, not the least of which are problems working in low light situations. Read more at:

Four fingered salute
As a fan of KitKit bars I was not shocked to read that Nestle lost its battle against Cadbury and the "four fingered" shape of the bars is not eligible for trade mark protection in the UK. While they've been successful in Germany, France, Australia, South Africa and Canada, the UK said no go. Could it be that depending on the size bar you buy, your KitKat comes in "two-fingers" or even "one mini-finger"? Let's hope such an all important case like this gets its day in the Supreme Court!
