To move online security to the next level, there has to be fundamental resolve among consumers, government and business to quickly adopt a system where the individual has more control over how information about them is managed and shared. Our aim is to construct an open and widely accessible software framework that puts the individual at the centre of the identity management universe. With this framework in place, it will be easier for society to begin the migration to more secure online environments, where trusted networks can not only be easily formed, but effectively enforced.

Actors are exposed in a way that nobody else can understand. They are subject to the likes and dislikes of people their entire life, no matter how successful they are.

There has to be some substantial changes in who the ABA works with within the city. Mr. McShane cannot be objective in this process, he really should be replaced by someone else. If that's not part of the contract, I think the ABA would probably not want to go through this nightmare again that we've had to go through with Mr. McShane.

Randy Pitchford

When we founded Gearbox we actually had the intent of doing two things. On one level, we wanted to build brands and build games that are our invention.

It was an event. It's so different today.

When I was a child, I loved 'The Marble Faun' by Nathaniel Hawthorne. The reason I liked it was because it had a beautiful binding. When you're a kid, you like books because they're pretty to look at, and this one had a white calfskin cover and gold edges. That was enough to make me love it.

All considering, I'm pretty happy with a fourth-place finish.

For the world is an ever-elusive and ever-disappointing mirage only from the standpoint of someone standing aside from it—as if it were quite other than himself—and then trying to grasp it.
