I found this pretty amusing. Hackers cracked the password on WRAL’s “Weather Closing” website for the Wake County School System.
Officials with the station and the school system did not know who engineered the hoax, which lasted about 25 minutes.
The school system has two special codes for reporting school closings to WRAL, said schools spokesman Michael Evans, and someone armed with the codes called in the alert.
I had a super-busy day yesterday. You’d think that working at home would make it easier, but the fact is that I was busier than I am most days at the office. I didn’t even get a chance to properly eat my lunch. I inhaled it at my desk before kicking off yet another demo.
I actually found it easier doing demos at home, since I have an office there and a cubicle here at work. Closing the door and having the room to myself helped me focus on what I wanted to say, rather than fighting to hear myself in my noisy cubicle.
Couple my success yesterday with the maddening problem at the office with unstable internet connections and it’s clear I’m better off working from home. I hope to do it more often.
