My del.icio.us bookmarks for October 6th through October 10th

  • Some soothing words from Sir Bonar about the latest MoD data loss episode – "We have well-rehearsed procedures for playing down the importance of such incidents, and launching the requisite internal enquiries to establish the precise chain events leading up to the loss.

  • Tattoo clue led police to thief – I love these "dumb criminal" stories.
  • 17-85 Exposed – A fascinating look at how the Canon EF-S 17-85 lens is put together. The number of components kind of explains why it is so expensive! I think I'd hesitate before doing that with mine even if it had broken!
