You'll see my ski post and pic below, but the primary reason I was up in Vancouver was to attend the CanSecWest security conference. I wrote several stories about the event on News.com. The big headline came at the end of the week as a security researcher, with the help of a buddy, was able to breach a MacBook Pro through a vulnerability in QuickTime. The piece I wrote on that was the big hitter over the weekend. Its always interesting to see how such stories stir heated conversations in TalkBack, some with attacks on me and CNET. I won't take it personal.
And a shout out to fellow security reporters Rob Lemos, Ryan Naraine and Dan Goodin (in no particular order), its always fun to hang out with those guys at a Con, even if they talk about their families. Turns out I'm the only single guy of the bunch :)
Here's MacBook co-hacker Shane Macaulay doing his thing:
