But 4096 bits is about 800 characters… how would you store that offline for a long time, properly? Safeberg (an ILUMY venture) introduces a machine readable paper key, with a 4k bits key crammed in a giant 2D Datamatrix barcode. The paper key can be stored in a drawer, deposit box or safe. To use the key, a picture taken from a camera or mobile phone will do.

Here’s an interesting discussion re the paper key on Slashdot. We created a video about key length and how we got to printing an RSA key on paper (thanks Menno and Irad). And this video shows how the backup key can be used.

By the way, Safeberg is ultimate security AND ultimate speed AND ultimate ease of use AND affordable AND transparent pricing.

Now, go get your free 5Gigs of storage at Safeberg.

Now she’s appeared in an ad by Guess. We love it. We love Omni.

Most of all, our preview of Next Level Shopping (launching October) got people excited. Think comparing sites and visually shopping across sites, before you go to customise.

Word has it we’ll be organising a local conference, MCPC 2010 Amsterdam, following similar local conferences at MIT and in Salzburg. More later.

For PicNic09 we bought a pair of Adidas, hand painted one and projected on the other. To tell the story of MilkOrSugar.com. See more pictures here.

Initially to serve our research and curiosity, we built a database of websites where you can customize and order products online. We added reviews and the database became a site, offering the best places to go for your built to order sleeping bag, samurai sword, bicycle, skate board, scrabble board, watch, machine parts, perfume, lingerie, wallpaper or lego model. And soon, your built to order fire extinguisher, guitar, radio controlled car, protein shakes or kanu.

Is mass customization finally becoming a reality?

We created the first website of a serie.  Associated to the 400 year existance of  New York, hetverhalenarchief.nl locates stories of Dutch people attached to this city.
