A Peculiar Blog

It’s possible to do a lot of blogging without the use of links but sooner or later you’re going to want to include a link to some page you want to share or that is somehow relevant to something that you are writing about. I’ll also grant that by and large I think that [...]

When wordpress went from version 2.2 to 2.3, one of the changes I noticed was the incoming links are no longer shown from Technorati. Instead you see the incoming links from a google blogsearch. I started out doing this because I wasn't all that thrilled about the change and wanted to change back. [...]

Since these days there’s a lot of people that would like to use google less but figure that they’re trapped into it because it’s the default search engine set up in their browsers. For Firefox at least, it’s actually pretty easy to fix and only takes a few minutes to do.
Start with a fresh [...]

This recipe was created when my wife and I started “tweaking” one that we found someplace. The end result is sort of related to what it started out as but a lot better. In our house it’s considered probably about a 9 on a scale of one to ten.
It’s made in a slow [...]

“Tags” have become something you see a lot more frequently on blogs these days. The latest version of WordPress supports tagging, as does Blogger and other blogging platforms. In addition to whatever native tagging support is available, there is html based Technorati tags.

A quick tutorial for sending messages with Jack B. Nymble.
I’m assuming here that you’ve installed PGP 6.5.8, along with Jack B. Nymble and Mixmaster and that when you installed JBN you gave it fresh stats urls as I described.
If you have auto functions disabled (Tools menu | disable auto functions), JBN won’t do anything when [...]

In a previous entry I gave a brief introduction and installation guide to Jack B. Nymble, a client program for sending anonymous email.  Once the program is installed and it’s stats are refreshed.  It’s possible to send anonymous email.
However as it is so far, it’s limited to using Type I (Cypherpunk) remailers. By adding [...]

Here’s a way to speed up Firefox browsers.
Straight out of the box, the browser will request only one item at a time. This means that when a page is made up of lots of pictures and other files, it’s going to take longer to load because each part has to be fetched one thing [...]

At this point I’m assuming that you have PGP 6.5.8 installed and have taken some time to become familiar with how to create keys and sign and/or encrypt text messages.
One way to send anonymous mail is to use the Cypherpunk remailer system. The way it works is actually simple, it’s just cumbersome to do [...]

One of the topics that I’ve been planning to cover here involves how to send anonymous email because I want to talk about how to blog anonymously and in order to do that, you need to be able to send email that cannot be traced back to you.
Before I go any further I want [...]
