I’m at Princeton’s cloud computing workshop. One of the most interesting people I’ve met here is Chris Soghoian, creator of the legendary TSA boarding pass generator and author of a CNet blog on privacy and security issues. Somehow until now his blog had not yet made its way into my feed reader, but that oversight has been corrected.
One of the conference speakers is the founder of wesabe, a fascinating site for managing your finances. As Luis notes, they seem to be a company that takes security and user autonomy seriously.
