This article about the Conficker virus over at The Atlantic is both fascinating and terrifying in equal measure. Oh yeah, it also carries a 'total geek' warning.
Thanks go to 'lk' at the disception forum for bringing this to our attention.
Great read! I don't find this article to be that geeky - it's far too exciting for that. And anyway, according to Douglas Rushkoff (http://rushkoff.com/2010/05/14/many-thoughts/) programming is the new literacy, so we'd better get used to a whole new generation of coding "geeks".
