     April 15, 2010 - Building VERA-NG
I finally got around to posting the information on building VERA-NG. Being mostly a software person, it should something anyone could put together with some pretty basic skills and some spare time.

     April 12, 2010 - Adventures at CarolinaCon
This was my first time at Carolina Con and I was happily surprised at the quality of talks for being one of the smaller Cons. Among my favorites were the The Evolution of Social Engineering by Chris Silvers & Dawn Perry and You Spent All That Money and You Still Got Owned by Joe McCray.

I decided to bring VERA-NG with me to the Con for fun and to do a little nibbling. After about 15 or 20 people approached me about this crazy cantenna nerf gun someone mentioned that maybe I should give a talk of the gun... more here

     Feb. 17, 2010 - Katana v1.5 Release!
Katana v1.5 (codename Z@toichi) has been released! After several months of work and some reconsiderations of the pre-packaged tools, the new release is here. This release has a couple of major changes to the disto list and the introduction of the Katana Tool Kit. The new version should be much more friendly for all the Windows users out there... more here.

     Feb. 8, 2010 - Shmoocon VI was awesome!!! (as always) It's the only Con with the balls to keep running with 20+ inches of snowfall. The roads and metro were closed but the Con was still on!

     To be fair, I might have a slanted view of Shmoocon since I won "Best built onsite" Shmooball launcher. OK, to be honest I was the only entry in that category, BUT the launcher was still pretty B.A (video coming soon). Though not nearly as threatening as the PaulDotCom guys and their mechanized Shmooball cannon of mass ditruction.

     Shmoocon also saw the public unveiling of the VERA-NG. This is something I have been working on for a little while now for pure self amusement. This article will give more information, but the VERA-NG is basically a dual Bluetooth and WiFi snipper Nerf riffle with a GPS and laptop mounted to the stock. It turned out to be quite a favorite at the Con.

     The Katana v1.5 Pre Release went great. Thanks to all of you who made donations to Hackers For Charity. The pre-release should hopefully be on the Informer soon, with the official release soon to follow. I go into more detail on the updates when I post the full release.
