Although IE8's security promise has already been marred to an extent -- it was
hacked the day before its official rollout -- it may escape the potentially
serious fallout from using JavaScript. IE8 was cracked at the 10th annual CanSecWest conference in Vancouver, Canada,
Wednesday by a hacker who identified himself only as "Nils." To be fair, the
first browser to go down at the hacking contest at CanSecWest was Apple's
Safari.

What we’ve decided is that we will no longer use the web filter as a classroom management tool. Blocking one distraction doesn’t solve the problem of students off task – it just encourages them to find another site to distract them. Students off task is not a technology problem – it’s a behavior problem.
We know that the best filters in a classroom or lab are the people in that lab – both the educational staff monitoring student computer use as well as the students themselves.
This opens up possibilities for students and staff using websites for instructional purposes that in the past were blocked due to broad category blocks. It requires that staff and students manage their technology use rather than relying on a third party solution that can never do the job of replacing teachers monitoring students.

The tools we use in life have leapfrogged over the ones we use at work. Business’s lingering love of bureaucracy, process, and legacy technology has fallen completely out of sync with what people need to do their best.
Budget shortfalls prohibit purchasing newer technology or upgrading, but if we could tap the "cloud" and if web2.0 sites were unblocked in our district, older technology wouldn't be as much of a hindrance. There's too much paranoia about security.
