Obama Campaign Hopes for Better Web Security

,----[ Quote ]
| The requirements are pretty much what you'd read in any e-commerce security 
| help-wanted ad: VPN (virtual private network) and Unix or Linux experience, 
| along with a "deep understanding" of LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl) 
| development. And of course, the successful candidate must be willing 
| to "respond off-hours to high urgency security situations."

| Similarly, open-source software is created by groups working on “patches,” as
| programmers call them. Anyone can contribute, and the most useful ideas

| Firefox Internet browser.

| Yochai Benkler, a Harvard law professor whose book “The Wealth of Networks”
| is a manifesto for online collaboration, points out a crucial difference
| between Mr. Obama’s approach to attracting supporters and that of his chief
| rivals. “On the McCain and Clinton Web sites, there is a transactional
| screen,” Mr. Benkler said. “It is just about the money. Donate, then we can
| build the relationship. In Obama’s it’s inverted: build the relationship and
| then donate.”
