IOActive Labs Research: I can still see your actions on Google Maps over SSL
shows the concept of SSL traffic analysis pretty well. It also might be easier to understand for less technically inclined people, as in "An attacker can still figure out what you're looking at on Google Maps" (with the addendum that it's never going to be a 100% perfect and that my shoddy proof of concept has lots of room for improvement).

JF: To what can you attribute the growth with Opera? You’ve indicated that some of this is from emerging markets. Can you elaborate? KF: Opera has been a great partner and has really helped us get this going within their huge user base. To some degree, our current customers reflect the distribution of Opera Mini users. Many of these are in emerging markets such as India, Indonesia and Russia, where the mobile phone is the primary means of accessing the Internet for many people. However, we are seeing a lot of traffic from North America and Western Europe as well. User engagement – measured in visits per user and page views per visit – is strong around the world.
Rafael Lozano-Hemmer - Project "Frequency and Volume"
Frequency and Volume enables participants to tune into and listen to different radio frequencies by using their own bodies. A computerised tracking system detects participants' shadows, which are projected on a wall of the exhibition space. The shadows scan the radio waves with their presence and position, while their size controls the volume of the signal. The piece can tune into any frequency between 150 kHz and 1.5 GHz, including air traffic control, FM, AM, short wave, cellular, CB, satellite, wireless telecommunication systems and radio navigation.

Digital Picture Frame Snatches Photos from Public Wi-Fi Networks « How-To News
The picture frame is made from an ancient Pentium II laptop, a custom frame built by Artrageous, and some handy duct tape. It runs Debian and the application used to snatch pictures from the Wi-Fi connection is Driftnet, a "program which listens to network traffic and picks out images from TCP streams it observes".
Je me demande si un PIC (à la Arduino) aurait la puissance de faire ça, et de le faire tourner sur une pile de 9V ? Voire de faire ça avec du papier électronique (bien mieux que ces écrans LCD avec leur angle de vision réduit).
