„Just a month ago, I bought a 256mb Secure Digital memory card. After all, I'd just bought a new Pocket PC and they take SD cards. Prior to that I'd picked up a couple of extra sets of NiMH AA batteries. They were a good deal and we always need AAs, right?“

„Why Digital Signatures Are Not Signatures When first invented in the 1970s, digital signatures made an amazing promise: better than a handwritten signature -- unforgeable and uncopyable -- on a document. Today, they are a fundamental component of business in cyberspace. And numerous laws, state and now federal, have codified digital signatures into law.“http://www.schneier.com/crypto-gram-0011.html - Cached
„A name-value pair is "self-authenticating" if, given the name-value pair, you can verify on your own that the mapping from that name to that value is correct. (For example, if the name comes with a public key and the value comes with a digital signature made by the corresponding private key, then it is easy to verify without any other information that the value is a valid value for that name.)“http://zooko.com/distnames.html - Cached
