During the recovery efforts this week at the National Corvette Museum, GM sent down a film crew to document the excavation of the first three Corvettes from Sky Dome sinkhole. Here is their video featuring our NCM friends Wendell Strode, Adam Boca and Chevy Communications guru Monte Doran.
Blue Devil / ZR1
This morning at the National Corvette Museum, construction workers successfully lifted the first of the eight fallen Corvettes from the massive sinkhole that opened inside the Sky Dome last month. The first Corvette to make it back to street level was the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil which had landed upright on top of the pile.
The National Corvette Museum issued another update regarding the Sinkhole in the Sky Dome yesterday and the good news is that we may see the first three Corvettes extracted from the hole as early as next week.
A sinkhole under the gold SkyDome at the National Corvette Museum opened this morning and swallowed eight Corvettes in the Museum's collection. The hole is estimated to be around 40 feet wide and 30 feet deep.
More on the Corvette Museum's Sinkhole including a list of the cars lost in the accident can be read here.

User talk:22.214.171.124
Your 2006 edit to COBOL was reverted by an incredibly stupid automated bot that incompetently attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles. If the bot reverted a legitimate edit, please accept our apologies, because none of the humans involved are going to bother investigating the bot's cockup impartially or at all :). However, if you bring the bot's retarded behavior to the attention of the bot's owner, he/she/it may be able to improve things! Click here for frequently asked questions about the bot and this warning. // Tawkerbot2 10:37, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
According to one of our Holy Bots, we have blindly accepted that You have recently vandalized a Wikipedia article, and you are now being asked to stop this type of behavior. You're welcome to continue editing Wikipedia, so long as these edits are constructive. Please see Wikipedia's Blocking policy and what constitutes vandalism; such actions are not tolerated on Wikipedia, and are not taken lightly.
We hope that you will become a legitimate editor. Again, you are welcome here at Wikipedia, but remember not to vandalize or you will soon be blocked from editing.
If you feel you have received this message in error, it may be because you are using a shared IP address. Nevertheless, repeated vandalism from this address may cause you to be included in any future punishments such as temporary blocks or bans. To avoid confusion in the future, we invite you to create a user account of your own.
External links[edit]
Please see WP:LINKS. Memory Alpha, by virtue of being a stable wiki project, has been established by the editing community as an appropriate link. The links you're providing, however, are uncited fancruft that offer no significant, notable expansion on the topic. --EEMeltonIV 03:00, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
December 2007[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we regretfully cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses novel, unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you.
In addition, if you have a disagreement with a revert by a bot or another editor, it would be far more appropriate to address the revert on the article's talk page, in a constructive and civil manner, citing your sources and acting to gain consensus. Deliberately editing previous comments as you have done above, does not speak well of your efforts to edit Wikipedia, and may in fact lend credence to any block that your IP may receive in the future. It is my personal hope that you will change your approach to this, and make a concerted effort to be a positive force here on Wikipedia. Edit Centric (talk) 06:59, 25 December 2007 (UTC)
In all likelihood, this is a shared-IP by many users. Nevertheless, I certainly welcome and appreciate the humor listed previously in this talk page by others. As far as lending "credence", perhaps more due diligence on your part regarding facts would enhance your credibility as an editor ... or you can continue to waste time writing unnecessary commentary here.
- Okay. I tried. Good luck with all that. Snowfire51 (talk) 10:56, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
Civility, please. Your edit summaries and comments, especially in dealing with CompUSA, are a bit pointed and sarcastic. If you have correct information, feel free to post it but please remain civil to other editors when doing so. Rewriting warnings and being disrespectful won't endear you to other editors. Please try to get along. Thanks! Snowfire51 (talk) 09:57, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing.
Regarding your comments specifically, this is your IP address' TALK page, where other users may leave you messages pertaining to discussions on articles, style guidelines, etceteras. This is NOT your "User Page". Even so, you are not entitled to vandalise another registered user's USER page solely due to a perceived vandalism of your own. Again, this is your ONLY warning. Edit Centric (talk) 10:53, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
Your recent edits[edit]
Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 03:11, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
December 2009[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Kendall, Florida has been reverted, as it appears to have removed content from the page without explanation.

Meet Mr. Good Housekeeping!
By Jessica Baumgardner
Special Offers
Runner-up: Ricky Randle
Sometimes supercleaners aren't born they're made. There was a time in the Randles' Kansas City, Kansas, household when Elvira, 45, did all the cooking, cleaning and child care, in addition to working long hours at an insurance company. "My husband would come home from work, eat dinner and relax," says Elvira. She was getting frustrated but Ricky, now 46, was oblivious.
Growing up in a family with nine kids, Ricky absorbed his parents' arrangement: His mother did what Ricky came to think of as "all the woman duties," while his father did the outdoor work, like cutting the grass and keeping up the car. That was all Ricky knew until his wife went back to school for a degree in education. With Elvira no longer around to do the heavy lifting, Ricky found himself stepping in. "He supported me by cooking, bathing the children, helping with homework and cleaning," says Elvira. "And now he cleans more than I do!"
"Doing the housework makes Elvira's life less stressful," says this reformed husband. "And that makes our marriage a lot better."

On-Board Power Generation System for a Guided Projectile eliminates the need for batteries as a power source to power the guiding mechanism residing inside the projectile. Instead, an electrical generator and a wind-driven turbine to drive the generator are utilized to produce power. In this way, a small portion of the projectile's kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy. The power thusly produced is, then, coupled to the guiding means. The projectile is appropriately configured to accommodate therein the power generation system and air inlets and exhaust ports that are necessary to enable the system to operate.
1-6. (cancelled)
7. In a projectile having a means therein for guiding said projectile during its flight toward a selected target, said projectile further having a housing, an aft end and a longitudinal axis and rotating during flight in a first direction about said axis, a system for generating voltage output to power said guiding means, said generating system residing in said projectile and comprising: a turbine positioned within said housing, said turbine having a plurality of vanes; an electrical generator coupled to said turbine; an exhaust port located at said aft end to allow any exhaust gases to escape; a plurality of inlet holes, said inlet holes being located on said housing and being positioned so as to allow air to enter therethrough and impinge on said vanes and cause said vanes to rotate in a second direction; and a means for coupling said generator to said turbine so as to enable said turbine to drive said generator and cause said generator to produce voltage output, said voltage output being input to said guiding means to power said guiding means.

The invention described herein may be manufactured, used and licensed by or for the Government for governmental purposes without the payment to us of any royalties thereon.
The U.S. military forces currently are facing a variety of low-cost air-borne threats that include unguided rockets, mortars, unmanned aerial vehicles and cruise missiles. The traditional response to these threats has been to engage them with sophisticated guided missiles. Such guided missile engagements are technically viable but very expensive. A more cost-effective means of countering the low-cost threats would be to use guided medium caliber (20 mm-40 mm) projectiles.
Such projectiles can be launched out of guns that are positioned on combat vehicles. Guns possess significant operational advantages over other weapon systems in local air defense and other close engagements, the primary advantage being a significant increase in the number of stowed kills. Hundreds of medium caliber gun rounds can be stored in the same space as ten missiles. Additionally, bullets carry a substantial cost savings over missile systems, thereby allowing a more liberal use during the battle.
However, to be effective, guns must have some capabilities that are not normally required by an artillery system: specifically, a very short targeting time, capability against highly agile targets and enhanced precision. Guided smart munitions would provide such capabilities. Further, they would alleviate any targeting errors that may result from launch biases and improve lethality by allowing enhanced aimpoint selection.
A critical aspect in the development of guided projectiles is the power generation to provide power to the guiding means that will reside inside the projectiles. The power generating means must be lightweight and suitable for incorporation into an environment that has limited space and is subject to significant spin rates and high shock loading.
Traditional and thermal batteries are not suitable for use as power sources for guided projectiles due to their size and relatively short shelf life. On-Board Power Generation System for a Guided Projectile does away with the need for the battery by utilizing, instead, an electrical generator to produce power and a wind-driven turbine to drive the generator. In this way, a small portion of the projectile's kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy. The power output of the generator is, then, coupled to the guiding means. The projectile is appropriately configured to accommodate therein the power generation system and the air inlets and exhaust ports necessary to enable the system to function.
Referring now to the drawing wherein like numbers represent like parts in each of the several figures, arrowheads indicate signal travel and the direction of the flight of guided projectile 100 is to the right, the configuration and operation of the On-Board Power Generation System for a Guided Projectile is explained in detail.
As shown in
The On-Board Power Generation System to provide the necessary power to the guiding means comprises cylindrical hole 201 drilled from air inlet 109 through the middle of the projectile to exhaust ports 105, turbine 205 mounted at the end of the cylindrical hole near the exhaust ports and electrical generator 209 coupled to the turbine. As the air stream passes over the turbine, the vanes of the turbine turn in a direction that is opposite of the rotation direction of the projectile. The relative positions of the vanes to each other at any given point in time during their rotation is indicated by the slanted lines, as shown in
Electrical generator 209 is coupled to turbine 205 by shaft 207. As illustrated in
An alternate embodiment, illustrated in
Although particular embodiments and forms of this invention have been illustrated, it is apparent that various modifications and other embodiments of the invention may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the foregoing disclosure. One modification is to add high-speed bearings 301 adjacent to shaft 207 as shown in

The Azalea Belle program is a product of Wilmington's Cape Fear Garden Club. Founded in 1925, Cape Fear is the oldest and largest garden club in North Carolina. Since 1953, members have conducted and "staffed" enormously popular garden club tours in conjunction with the annual N.C. Azalea Festival – an idea conceived by club president Mrs. P. R. (Bess) Smith in 1952. Azalea Belles were added in 1969 to complement each garden with their own beauty and grace. The combination is captivating.
Previously, young women in Colonial dress dressed up for special tours of Cape Fear gardens. The earliest documented example would be tours at Airlie Gardens and Orton Plantation to benefit non-profit projects. Sisters Florence Hill Moore (Dunn) and Ann Kidder Moore (Bacon) were outfitted in antebellum dresses when they posed for professional photos at Orton Plantation, about 1939 — the year Cape Fear Garden Club hosted the first Camellia Festival. Wilmington clothier Beulah Meier designed and made the Moore sisters' attire. Today, a team of talented dressmakers crafts gowns for Azalea Belles.
Belles also appeared at some N. C. Pilgrimage events, tours that predated the Azalea Festival, and early Cape Fear Garden Club events. Author and historian Leora Hiatt "Billie" McEachern, who was club president from 1959 until 1961, encouraged the practice, but there was no continuity. In 1969, Azalea Belles appeared in the gardens for the first time as a coordinated group, and as an annual feature of the Cape Fear Garden Club Azalea Garden Tour©. Mrs. Harley Vance, president of the club, is credited for making belledom an official part of the Azalea Festival. She was assisted by belle enthusiast, Mrs. W. A. Fonvielle.
That first year the club presented seven young ladies: Marsha Blake, Jean Burdette, Wanda Johnson, Beth Chadwick, Ginger King, Kathie White, and Pamela Wood. Five of them were daughters of club members, including Marsha Blake, whose mother was chairman of the 1969 tour. The hoops most of the girls wore belonged to their mothers, and were left over from the Cape Fear Confederate Ball held at Cape Fear Country Club, April 15, 1962.
Currently, talented dressmakers Kay Godwin, Alma Fennell, and Debbie Sheu craft the gowns. Any girl who is at least 16 years old, in the 10th, 11th, or 12th grade, and is endorsed by a member of Cape Fear Garden Club, is a potential wearer-of-the-hoop. Cape Fear Garden Club membership continues to be an automatic qualifying factor for members' daughters and granddaughters, and many years of work equity can boost a member's descendants from ordinary belles to belles who meet the Governor.
Glimpsing the cheery garden club members in their bright colors and floppy spring hats, Cape Fear Garden Club Azalea Garden Tour© visitors might not suspect that the club is an efficient, beautifully managed money making machine. The "green" they collect helps make the land of the Lower Cape Fear greener still. As an entity, they seek little credit for their gifts, and none whatsoever as individuals. The ladies simply carry on the big business and culture of flowers and the honorable practice of charitable giving, year after year.
Currently, profits from the Cape Fear Garden Club Azalea Garden Tour© are channeled back into the community in forms such as beautification and horticulture grants; scholarships to the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and Cape Fear Community College; and conservation efforts at Battery Island, a National Audubon Society bird sanctuary. They have distributed over one million dollars since 1953, including $83,000 in 2011.

CLEVELAND, Tenn. (AP) -- A father who was captured in Mexico last year and returned to East Tennessee has pleaded guilty to reckless homicide in the death of his 1-month-old child.
Daniel Ramirez faces up to 12 years in prison after he pleaded to a reduced charge Monday in Bradley County court.
He was charged with felony murder in the 2006 death of Dylan Ramirez, who died from blunt impact trauma, according to an autopsy. Prosecutors said Dylan Ramirez suffered injuries consistent with "shaken baby syndrome."
After he was indicted, officials say Ramirez and the rest of the family, including Dylan's twin, fled to Mexico. He was captured in Vera Cruz last July.
Ramirez is scheduled to be sentenced in June.

I haven't used the item yet but my initial reaction is it is a good value for the price. I only wish it had included the heating and/or cooling device that will be needed to use it. I may have missed this important info when ordering but really do not remember it stating something else would be needed to use it.
Zipper tends to "catch" at corners making it a bit difficult to enclose heated pan.
It's the perfect tote for food. None of the food in the casserole spilled, and the food was still warm when I served it.
4.5 out of 5 stars, based on 356 ratings
95% of reviewers recommend this product
95% say this is a "good value"
I love the color, and also the collapsable carrier is so easy to store when not in use. I wish I had ordered one more of these now that I see them. I am looking forward to the first time I use it. The quality and workmanship is very well worth the money.
I am very pleased w/ the Potlucker--I have wanted something like this for some time. Would have liked a color choice though. Came in WAY TOO LARGE box w/ LOADS of "popcorn" like it was something breakable--you need to learn how to minimize for shipping!!
I'd admired other potluck carriers but found them way too pricey. This one is perfect--the right size and price, can be used for hot or cold foods, and really easy to put the 9 x 13" pan inside. I love it, and bought the larger size as a gift for a friend that also enjoys cooking. Additional bonus: IT FOLDS FLAT FOR STORAGE. A winner!
I think this is cumbersome to put together. Once put together correctly, it is also cumbersome to "stow" the dish in the carrier. Also, if the dish isn't almost the exact same dimensions as the carrier, the food will spill over, as there are no straps to hold it tight.

Tesla leads way as electric car sales double in 2013
Sales of battery-electric and plug-in vehicles in the United States are expected to nearly double 2012's totals, with Tesla's Model S leading the way.
The New York Times
When the final figures for 2013 are tabulated, sales of battery-electric and plug-in vehicles in the United States are expected to nearly double 2012's totals, according to the Electric Drive Transportation Association (EDTA), a trade group based in Washington, D.C. Even so, that is fewer than 100,000 vehicles, in a year when the industry is on track to comfortably top 15 million sales.
There is no denying that cars with plugs are finding more buyers, a positive development in the eyes of environmentalists. Still, the high points of 2013 were sometimes offset by setbacks. For instance, tepid sales of several EV models, as well as the Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid, had automakers slashing prices by thousands of dollars.
At the same time, a segment star, the Tesla Model S, proved it could hold its own in the premium market, projecting sales of about 20,000 cars in the United States. The electric Tesla has been a headline-maker, outselling some gas-powered competitors. In October, Edmunds.com reported that the Model S was the "most registered" new vehicle in eight of America's 25 wealthiest ZIP codes.
The good news was tempered, though, by reports that three Model S sedans caught fire, two after hitting objects in the road, one after a crash. In November, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said it would open an investigation.
For most of the industry, the year was quieter. Some of the plug-in cars introduced in 2013 — from major automakers including BMW (arriving here in the spring), Chevrolet, Fiat, Ford, Honda and Porsche — were offered only in limited markets, always including California.
Consumers now have 16 plug-in models to choose from, the association said. Yet sales seemed to hit a plateau, with the Volt and the Nissan Leaf battery car each stabilizing at about 2,000 a month. Ford's two plug-in hybrid Energi models together make similar numbers, and the plug-in Toyota Prius around 1,000.
"I think it was a good year," Brian Wynne, president of the association, said in a telephone interview, citing the rapid expansion of public charging stations as a hopeful sign. According to the Energy Department, there were 6,712 such stations in the United States in mid-December.
Eric Evarts, senior associate autos editor at Consumer Reports, said in an email that 2013 was the year electric vehicles "really captured the public imagination" and became "more practical for the mainstream."
A survey released this month by Consumers Union and the Union of Concerned Scientists said that some 42 percent of respondents would find a plug-in hybrid to be a good fit for their needs. Is it significant that Mary Barra, who will take over as chief executive of GM next month, was trained as an electrical engineer?
In an interview before her appointment was announced, she said GM was "very committed to electrification." And in a development that could mean greater support for green cars at the federal level — at least temporarily — David Friedman, a former leader of the clean-vehicles program at the Union of Concerned Scientists, will serve as acting administrator of NHTSA following the departure of David Strickland.
With growing availability, sales of conventional hybrids continue to climb. Americans have bought more than 3 million hybrids since they arrived in 1999, and they are holding steady at around 3 percent of total vehicle sales.
Still, cheaper alternatives to hybrids and battery cars advanced in 2013. Diesels and small gasoline engines, often turbocharged, are gaining ground, with offerings like Ford's 1-liter three-cylinder Fiesta delivering 45 mpg on the highway when equipped with a manual shift.

UPDATE: Amazon itself has issued via its Amazon Web Services official blog the following rebuttal:
"There have been reports that a government inquiry prompted us not to serve WikiLeaks any longer. That is inaccurate.
There have also been reports that it was prompted by massive DDOS attacks. That too is inaccurate. There were indeed large-scale DDOS attacks, but they were successfully defended against.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) rents computer infrastructure on a self-service basis. AWS does not pre-screen its customers, but it does have terms of service that must be followed. WikiLeaks was not following them. There were several parts they were violating. For example, our terms of service state that "you represent and warrant that you own or otherwise control all of the rights to the content… that use of the content you supply does not violate this policy and will not cause injury to any person or entity." It's clear that WikiLeaks doesn't own or otherwise control all the rights to this classified content. Further, it is not credible that the extraordinary volume of 250,000 classified documents that WikiLeaks is publishing could have been carefully redacted in such a way as to ensure that they weren't putting innocent people in jeopardy. Human rights organizations have in fact written to WikiLeaks asking them to exercise caution and not release the names or identities of human rights defenders who might be persecuted by their governments.
We've been running AWS for over four years and have hundreds of thousands of customers storing all kinds of data on AWS. Some of this data is controversial, and that's perfectly fine. But, when companies or people go about securing and storing large quantities of data that isn't rightfully theirs, and publishing this data without ensuring it won't injure others, it's a violation of our terms of service, and folks need to go operate elsewhere.
We look forward to continuing to serve our AWS customers and are excited about several new things we have coming your way in the next few months."
— Amazon Web Services
Amazon Web Services kicked WikiLeaks off its self-service cloud servers Wednesday after staffers from the US Senate's Homeland Security Committee called the company following news reports that Amazon was playing host to the renegade site.
The naïve self-appointed secrecy-puncturing "whistleblower" site sought refuge on Amazon after its own site in Sweden was downed by massive denial of service attacks that started when it began publishing equally massive amounts of purloined American diplomatic e-mails and private State Department documents.
Senator Joe Lieberman, who chairs the committee, released a statement saying "Amazon.com decided to terminate its relationship with Wikileaks."
His full statement reads:
"This morning Amazon informed my staff that it has ceased to host the Wikileaks website. I wish that Amazon had taken this action earlier based on Wikileaks' previous publication of classified material. The company's decision to cut off Wikileaks now is the right decision and should set the standard for other companies Wikileaks is using to distribute its illegally seized material.
I call on any other company or organization that is hosting Wikileaks to immediately terminate its relationship with them. Wikileaks' illegal, outrageous, and reckless acts have compromised our national security and put lives at risk around the world. No responsible company – whether American or foreign – should assist Wikileaks in its efforts to disseminate these stolen materials. I will be asking Amazon about the extent of its relationship with Wikileaks and what it and other web service providers will do in the future to ensure that their services are not used to distribute stolen, classified information."
Naturally Amazon is bound to catch some "First Amendment" flak for pulling the plug from people who think it's their God given right to read other people's mail.
WikiLeaks is leading that parade. It twittered: "If Amazon are so uncomfortable with the first amendment, they should get out of the business of selling books" and "WikiLeaks servers at Amazon ousted. Free speech the land of the free--fine our $ are now spent to employ people in Europe."
WikiLeaks has now reportedly returned to its Swedish host Bahnhof AB.
Amazon's move is unprecedented and although it has now curled up tighter than a ball it can claim that WikiLeaks violated its terms of acceptable use which ban illegal activities, content that "may be harmful to our users, operations or reputation" or jeopardizes the "security or integrity of any network, computer or communication system."
Meanwhile, as the US tries to figure out how to charge him with espionage, Interpol has a "Most Wanted" arrest warrant out for WikiLeaks' 39-year- old Australian-born "editor" Julian Assange on allegations of rape, sexual molestation and unlawful coercion. The Swedish police want to talk to him.
Reuters, quoting the British press, says he's been in the UK avoiding the Swedish authorities since October and that the bobbies know where he is but have so far refused to act on the international warrant.
Assange, like WikiLeaks, has no visible means of support and a nomadic lifestyle. He's been offered asylum in Ecuador and his going to ground hasn't stopped him from giving interviews to the press.
He told Time magazine that in its four years of existence WikiLeaks "has never caused an individual, as far as we can determine or as far anyone else can determine, to come to any sort of physical harm or to be wrongly imprisoned and so on." Maybe he'd like to tell that to the parents of 22-year- old Pfc Bradley Manning, Assange's alleged source, who's reportedly been cooling his heels for seven months in solitary confinement and is looking at spending the rest of his life in jail so we can know that Maliki's a stooge, Karzai's a crook, Mubarak's son's not competent and Pakistan's president is incapable.
The files reportedly came off of the classified Defense Department SIPRNET administered by the NSA, Defense intelligence Agency and the Defense Information Systems Agency.
Manning reportedly told he guy who ratted him out that the system had "weak servers, weak logging, weak physical security, weak counter- intelligence, inattentive signal analysis…a perfect storm."

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...
