It is unlikely many consumers, at home or at work, will be willing to pay for what they now receive for free. Many instant messaging offerings pose security problems. Lotus, with its SameTime offering, was cited as being alone among vendors to bring IT-sanctioned instant messaging to corporations.

The U.S. government will pony up $8.6 million in scholarship money to 200 students who agree to work for Uncle Sam as computer security professionals after they earn their degrees. It's like ROTC for geeks. Participating schools include Carnegie Mellon, Iowa State, Purdue, the University of Idaho, University of Tulsa and the Naval Postgraduate School. The feds have had trouble luring "cream of the crop" security professionals, so dangling the scholarship carrot may be just the ticket.
