Today's Story Highlights

Bad Ads Outstrip Porn as Mobile Phone Infection Vectors
Trawling porn sites used to be the best way to pick up an electronically
transmitted disease on your phone. That's changed. Every one in five
times a mobile user is redirected to a malware site online, it's done
through a malicious ad, according to a new report. That's three times
what it was two years ago. One reason malicious ads have been able to
outperform porn is they can get more traffic.

Democreativity Wants Your Great Gaming Ideas
The Democreativity initiative is calling for gaming ideas from anyone
and everyone, with the hope of turning the best of them into hit video
games. The initiative is led by Visit Sweden, the Swedish Institute and
Business Sweden. Through its website, which launched last week, anyone
can post video game ideas. The site encourages completely original
submissions, as well as collaborative efforts.

Linux Bugs, Bugs Everywhere
Well it was a wild week here in Linux land, and not just because of the
asteroid that came hurtling by Earth at heart-lurching proximity. Pay no
attention to the 100-foot-wide ball of rock you might notice streaking
through the sky closer than the Moon! *Cough*. Thank goodness for
tequila. Linux fans, however, had bigger -- or rather, smaller -- things
to focus on last week. Namely? Bugs.

Titanfall to Thunder Into Game Stores Monday Night
Titanfall -- a video game for several Microsoft platforms -- is about to
be released, and the company apparently sees it as a hugely important
title for its Xbox One console. Titanfall is a multiplayer shooter that
pits two teams of up to six players against each other. Players control
"pilots," who can either engage with each other directly or take command
of titans.
