OS X Secrets
Awesome Preference Pane of secrets in OS X 10.5, for simple tweaks without using the Terminal from Nicholas Jitkoff maker of my favorite app launcher QuickSilver. Fair warning though, many of the tweaks are not officially supported and as such could cause issues with your system.Secrets lets you customize many Mac OS settings that are hidden or incomplete.
Many of these values can harm your system if used improperly. Use it at your own risk.
Secrets
[Update] More cool than my first glance, it looks like it exposes not just OS X's undocumented tweaks, but it also exposes tweaks for all your apps. I'm not sure if it searches for all the possible switches in the system or if it's just pulling from an VERY extensive list.

Mac OS X targeted by Trojan and backdoor tool | Tech News on ZDNet
Not as serious as it may seem, but the hackers do seem to be gaining some ground on OS X.The Trojan is found on porn websites posing as a codec needed to play video files, a technique used to trick the user into downloading and installing it.
OSX.Lamzev.A is a hacker tool designed primarily to allow attackers to install backdoors in a user's system, according to Intego. However, the company dismissed the tool as a serious threat because a potential hacker has to have physical access to a system to install the backdoor.

Review: Dimdim, the WebEx killer
Who says good things don't come free? As in open source free. Dimdim is an online meeting suite, much like WeEx except it is an open source package. As you know, we are fans of open source here at Jambo Consulting, so it's no surprise that we have adopted Dimdim for our meeting needs. (We still love iChat, though!)The basic, free registration will allow up to 20 participants in a meeting. You'll get many great features for free: video (host), audio (dial-in or VOIP), desktop sharing, whiteboard sharing, chatroom, recording, and integration with Zimbra or Outlook. Our experiences with Dimdim and its VOIP capability have been wonderful, although I'd recommend a good headset/microphone. The Web-based UI is very friendly and easy to use and runs on all the popular browsers.
It is in my mind a true WebEx killer.

ATT Acquires Wayport
Finally somebody's getting it. $275 Million is much cheaper than building out a national 3G or 4G network. And it saves ATT money on bandwidth. Up to now carriers usually charge separately for WiFi Hotspot access and 3G data service. I'd have to say this makes ATT data plans a much better deal.
