Web 2.0 is causing an explosion stretching the boundaries of what web sites can do. And in the rush to add features, security seems to have become an afterthought, both for participants as well as developers. Web 2.0 as a gestalt is an emmenthaler cheese (more holes than cheese).

Can you help us/them reach out and find a few new donors?
"Donations from new donors will be doubled. We need to raise $10,000 within the next month to receive any of the funds from the matching grant!"
