Other people have reported it as well: Belgium has started censoring the Internet.

This raises a couple of questions:

Google has just started testing a new service to inform webmasters that their CMS is vulnerable to security exploits. Currently they are only targetting administrators of sites running WordPress 2.1.1 but my guess is that they'll be adding support for other versions and other platforms in the future.

Yesterday Google added support for name tags to its Picasa Web Albums service. It relies heavily on face recognition software to make this task easy.

I'm no expert in this matter and I haven't been paying attention to the progress that has been made in this domain recently so I was surprised to see how good the face detection and recognition is.

A couple of days ago del.icio.us decided to reduce the default number of items returned by their feeds. Last week a feed of a specific tag returned at least 25 items but today only 15 items are included.

The last couple of months I have joined a number of LinkedIn groups. Some of these are official groups backed by a real organization or company (like the K.U.Leuven Computer Science Alumni or the The Greater IBM Connection) but others are pretty vague (like Consultants Network and IT Specialist).
