Hi all,

As tweeted a little earlier, I have been under the weather and unable to bring Outriders to you this week. But this does not mean I have stopped keeping an eye out on what people are up to online of course - it just means you will have to wait until next week for another podcast or radio episode.

In the mean time a couple of things to catch up on.

Congratulations to the delightfully mad Joseph Tame on and indeed streaming, tweeting and speaking English and Japanese all the way around. A triumph of home made rig creation, incomprehensible stamina and a back up team that must be worth its weight in gold. Well done all round!

Also - it's nearly March 1st - which might mean some digital white rabbits, but also means that the project is about to hit 'Go!'. You might remember Dawn Danby telling me about the twitter streams that will describe literary, historical and famous voices into our online lives. Well, those accounts are prepped and ready so you should be able to follow the online updates of actors playing Syliva Plath, Keith Moon and even Roald Dahl's BFG. I'm looking forward to the latter to see how he will be delivering dreams to us online.

As a brief look ahead - I should be bringing you some voices from the SXSW conference in Austin, Texas in a couple of weeks. It's the 25th anniversary so I'm going to find out what makes it such a big deal on the digital calendar.

Of course if you would like to forward questions, let me know about something online that lights your fire or indeed update me with news of your digital goings on, then I am delighted to hear from you. You can email me at Outriders at bbc dot co dot uk, join the Facebook group by searching for Outriders or tweet at me 麻豆官网首页入口_Outriders.

Yours in recovery,

Until next week!

Hello Outriders,

This week on the Outriders podcast we have a long chat with Kevin Poulsen about his new book . The story follows the work of grey-hat hacker Max Butler, also known as Max Vision, through the world of hacking for good into profit based dealing of credit card dealing.

The book shows a change in the atmosphere of hacking from a bedroom activity based on curiosity and technical know-how to a darker and sometimes violent business. Kevin talks us through those changes and how law enforcement officers manage to penetrate the circles of those involved.

Kevin Poulsen has his own experience with hacking of course and discusses how 鈥渉acking鈥� is now so diverse in it鈥檚 definition that it is not easy to use it as a blanket term. He also indulges us with a brief look at how hackers are portrayed in film adaptations that include their varied skills.

Kingpin reads like a thriller based on actual events and shows great depth of understanding for the craft as well as the people who were eventually caught and paid for their actions.

Kevin is a senior editor at Wired.com, running the blog as well as holding a reputation as a great investigative reporter covering cyber-crime in its many forms.

The book is out now for those who are curious to learn how their information could end up with people willing to trade that data for money.

As usual you can tell us more about what you have been creating or indeed what you have found online that you think we should know more about. Email me at Outriders at bbc dot co dot uk, send word to us on Twitter where we are or search for Outriders on Facebook where you can join our discussions.

Following this, Mark Spoffoth of newly app-launched made us all hungry by talking about his obsession with fresh food and relationships with producers. Do you know where you can get produce from a farmer locally? LoveFresh may be able to help.

Friend of Outriders, returns to us - this time with a new challenge. You may recall that last time he was headed up Mount Fuji with plans to live stream the experience via his phones. This time - he's taking us all with him online as he takes on the Tokyo Marathon. Slightly mad, I'm sure you will agree - but the sort of mad that we love on Outriders.

Last but never least Original Outrider Chris Vallance also joined us this week, he's been chatting to author - creator of the City of Urm. If you can imagine a place made up of the tweets of different writers - you'd be heading in the right direction to find others who inhabit this fantastic city.

Hi all,

This week on the Outriders podcast we take a look at the ways in which online communites put their skills to good use when it came to getting messages in and out of Egypt.

听

is a senior fellow at the and Co-founder of online. She explained the ehtical issues associated with global communications and how the companies involved may want to think about the protection of staff, signals and human rights.

听

The ways in which people can change their methods of communication may be myriad, but they might also depend on the knowlege of those who understand slightly older technologies. The group of activists worked hard to open lines of communication via fax, dial-up modem and even ham radio for Egypt. One of their agents, kindly took a moment to explain how we should get to know our technologies.

When a signal can be established and people have the opportunity to speak, the technologies around the internet are certainly useful. However, not all messages are easy to understand, especially if you do not speak the same language. Brian Conley of noted the Speak to Tweet service broadcasting comments and reports out of Egypt and identified another way in which Arabic speakers around the world could help to get voices heard. He explained how volunteers around the globe made sure people could read in Chinese, Albanian, English and other languages.

That's all we had time for again this week, but as usual, you can help us out by letting me know what lights your fire online. You can email me at Outriders at bbc dot co dot uk, send a or search for Outriders on Facebook and join in with our weekly updates.
