Roll call: whom of you does not know who Vint Cerf is? If you do not, visit this Wikipedia-entry at once! (Hint: He’s the father of the Internet).

Apparently he works for Google now. And he’s working in the realm of the Internet of Things. And he’s been giving a very comprehensive talk about the architectural foundations which need to be implemented for the Smart Grid (and by extension the Internet of Things) to be reliable and resilient. Thanks to Igor for the pointer.
