ITS Coffee Break – 4/9/07 – Password Changes, EduSpaces, DRM-less iTunes Songs, Webmail Rules
The big news that network passwords will no longer expire leads off the ITS Coffee Break this week. Hosts Ken Newquist and Courtney Bentley discuss what this means for faculty, staff and students at Lafayette … and what you can do to make your password more secure. In other ITS news, the online survey application WebSurveyor has changed its name to Vovici. The service has a whole new look, but the surveys hosted through it remain the same. In Tech News, they discuss the launch of EduSpaces, a higher education social networking site and the announcement that EMI and Apple have penned a deal to sell DRM-less music in the iTunes Music Store. Finally in Help News, Courtney offers a quick walkthrough of how to setup rules within Webmail to better manage your e-mail.
