Submission + - Libyan rebels weaponize Power Wheels toy ATV (jalopnik.com)

Danny Rathjens writes: "jalopnik.com reports, "You know the little Power Wheels-style ATV [4-wheeled slow-moving truck] your kid uses to drive across the lawn? It turns out that it makes a great machine gun drone in the hands of Libyan rebel, and structural engineer, Mohammad Bin Saud. Bin Saud is one of a growing legion of rebel Libyans turning anything and everything — including the aforementioned Power Wheels — into weapons." Most of the content is a video clip from Al-Jazeera."

Submission + - Cisco buying Jabber (nytimes.com)

Danny Rathjens writes: "In the continuing trend of big companies buying out small companies with open source products, Cisco has announced that they are buying Jabber. The press release doesn't mention the open source aspect of jabber at all and jabber.org is currently down. So I'm sure the question many of us have is whether jabber's open source status will be changed in any way due to the purchase."
