When reading Yahoo's privacy policy pages recently, I noticed
something about "web beacons" being used in addition to cookies.
This was the first time I encountered the term "web beacons",
and I must admit that I did not fully understand their page how
web beacons work. Is anybody familiar with this technique (or
technology) and willing to shed some light or share a handy URL
where I could learn more about those strange little beasts?
