A lot of personal information is getting stored on cell phones.

A lot of personal information is getting stored on cell phones. People say you simply remove the memory chip, but the chip is usually a copy of the information stored on the phone. Moving the chip does not delete the old info. What is the best way to dispose of a cell phone without leaving your personal information out there for someone else to access? In this disposable society, cell phones are good for about 2 years and then you buy a new one. The old one usually ends up in the trash. Are they biodegradable.

Internet slander

Recent news articles are talking about how the Internet is being used as a method of posting slanderous, private or simply unverified information. Often this is very harmful. How can the average person fight this? What answer is there to this problem? (Laws, enforcement, etc.)

With each of the new technologies, how is security important?

With each of the new technologies (networking, wireless networking and others), how is security important? Would you trust the methods that exist today to secure these technologies? Any recommendations? (Add any other technologies that you are aware of that might work better.) Where do you see all of this going in the future?

Powerpoint presentations and video clips

The only way I believe computers and television would work is when you tape television shows that can be used to give flavor to PowerPoint Presentations. Television clips in a PowerPoint Presentation can be used to grab a viewer’s attention. What do you think about this idea in other scenarios?

Cell Phones and PDAs

Cell phones are obviously closing on PDAs and the line between them is becoming very blurred. Is this a wave of the future/present or do think that both have their own place. In many discussions at work, people think that a single Cell Phone / PDA / computer that is remotely connected is the future. Obviously it would be a great device but also something that I think I would want connected to my body with a chain or some nysteel cable. I would never want to lose it. How about other technologies? Could this trend be exploding so that all of the technology is rolled together? My PDA will already function as a TV and stereo remote if I want it to. What's next?
