Not everybody who's running a successful web business is a skinny
jean-ed, fop haired, mac book toting latte sipper who is up to date
with the latest web fashions.

That reminds me of a interesting thing I game across the other day.
One of Australias largest video games wholesalers and importers
released their API (for want of a better word) to integrate ones
online retail business with their warehousing, ordering and shipping
facilities. Their so called "drop shipping" service. The API document
describes a complicated comms protocol including ftp, vendor/
timestamp name concatenated order and shipping files and so on.

Sony was relatively safe. I got bitten by Vodafone hacking too.
