AP - Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin says she supports a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, a break with John McCain who has said he believes states should be left to define what marriage is. In an interview with Christian Broadcasting Network, the Alaska governor said she had voted in 1998 for a state amendment banning same sex marriage and hoped to see a federal ban on such unions.

A decade and a half of provocative content has inspired plenty of letters to the editor. Some of them have been thoughtful and constructive, others just plain rude. Sticks and stones, kids...
I have to pass on my disappointment with the first issue of your magazine. In fact, it has made me angry ... It's yuppie bullshit.

I hated the cover on my new Wired magazine so much I tore it off and threw it in the trash.

I don't know whether to congratulate you for your courage or cancel my subscription for presenting such one-sided drivel.

As fiction goes, Ed Regis' article on anti-environmental crusader Julian L. Simon was a work of art.

Fourteen years ago, a company called General Magic promised a handheld device that would make calls, send email, play music, and do almost everything else that makes today's iPhone so drool-worthy. "Bill and Andy's Excellent Adventure II" (April 1994) was about the two Macintosh vets—Atkinson and Hertzfeld—leading the project. Unfortunately, they were far too early. General Magic sank in 2002. But its legacy lives on, in part because the effort was a formative experience for a team of brilliant young engineers. Pierre Omidyar went on to start eBay. Tony Fadell heads Apple's iPod hardware group. Kevin Lynch cooked up Flash. And Andy Rubin created the Sidekick and Google's Android mobile platform. Not too shabby. As for Bill and Andy, they are still adventuring excellently: Atkinson works with the artificial intelligence startup Numenta, and Hertzfeld codes for Google.

Back in December 1996, sci-fi novelist David Brin warned that street cams would soon be everywhere ("The Transparent Society"). In his dream for the future, every citizen would have full access to the image stream. So far, the authorities have enjoyed a one-way view. But Brin was right that each year, surveillance tech would get tinier, more mobile, and more clever.
