Leading Questions for Week of 5/31/05

--Very timely subject with Guidewire's Innovate!Europe coming up - French voters' rejection of the EU constitution.
*Questions: What does this mean for the Euro? How deeply will this affect Europe's technological landscape? Does a lack of uniformity translate into lack of innovation?

--Tech columnist David Sheets contends there is no safe Web browser. Internet Explorer has become synonymous with security breaches but recent gaffes by Netscape and Firefox strengthen his point.
*Questions: What is the alternative? Where do you see the Web browser in 10 years? Could this be the next frontier of tech innovation - finding a better, more secure way to access the Internet?

--The White House has asked a federal appeals court to grant it access to ISP provider information. A judge last year blocked the government from searching communication records such as this, but the Bush administration argues it needs the information to fight terrorism.
*Questions: Where does one draw the line when it comes to technological privacy? Is this a freedom we should concede in the new age of terrorism? Or is the potential for abuse too great?
