First let me say that Word Press is fantastic software. We have been using it on this site for almost a year now and have been very satisfied with what it allows us to do.

The success of Word Press in attracting a large blogging community has led to some new attention from hackers. There is currently a vulnerability that allows hackers to insert links into the code that affects Ad Sense. It manifests by the usual “adult” ads showing up on our home page.

We have been removing this code on almost a daily basis but until a new release is out fixing this vulnerability we will continue to have some of these ads show up.

So, we would like to apologize to you for anything inappropriate that may show up. We are working to fix things and I know that the Word Press folks are working hard to fix this.

A question for the hackers . . . wouldn’t it be more interesting for you to take that great talent for tweaking things and put it to more positive use? There are a huge number of charities and not-for-profit organizations that could really use your help and talent. Try volunteering just once, see the results in the faces in those you are helping and I really think you’ll get hooked. Just a thought . . .

In the meantime, please enjoy the site. We try to bring some of the most interesting innovation stories available together here to keep you both up to speed and excited about future possibilities.

Enjoy.
