* There's a new player coming to the field of facial recognition, Swedish startup Polar Rose will [launch a public test][1] of its software in March. Polar Rose's software analyzes digital photos to locate faces and convert to resulting data from 2D images to 3D models.
* The Federal Court of Australia has [ruled][2] that linking to copyright infringing materials is illegal. The case in question involves the now-defunct MP3s4free.net, a user-submitted link site leading to copyright infringing materials. But wait, I thought we were Person of the Year for our user-generated content? Oh, right...
* There are [reports][3] of a worm that may be circulating via a feature in Skype's popular VoIP service. The worm sends messages via Skype Chat, asking recipients to download and run a file called sp.exe. Sp.exe is a trojan horse that will then steal passwords and download additional files.
* The CEO of Phillips Electronics, Paul Zeven, has an interesting [op/ed piece][4] on CNet in which he wonders "if consumers really want all this. Have we gone too far? Are we in step with the needs of today's American consumer?" Needs? *Needs*? We don't need your stinking needs, just gimme my robotic vacuum cleaner and step away from the Wii.
