Jikto Source Code Stories

As I originally blogged about the Jikto Source code here on Vulnerable Minds, its only fair to mention that the situation has expanded a bit. I took the code down, and we stopped linking to it from Vulnerable Minds when Billy Hoffman contacted me about the code.

Today I was contacted by Robert McMillan of IDG, and Interviewed for an article about the release of the source code. I've looked over copies currently being distributed by others, and they actually are not the same as what I offered on my site. I slightly modified the code, essentially creating a watermark. Apparently there were other fast-typing individuals in the audience who may have snagged the code directly from the source.

The article is available many places, as its currently in the IDG newsfeed. Here it is in InfoWorld.

I've also posted some commentary over on my blog, LogicX.net.
