Are Passkeys really the beginning of the end of passwords? I certainly hope not!

This problem would not exist had someone not had the amazingly brilliant idea of stuffing HTML into email. The ASCII ribbon campaign was an Internet phenomenon started in 1998 advocating that email be sent only in plain text, because of the dangers of using HTML in email. Go figure, the Unix graybeards were right!

Bookmarks

Remember del.icio.us? Remember Ma.gnolia? They were both social bookmarking sites and I used both until they ceased to exist. I now keep my bookmarks on my own site and share them here.

I tend to bookmark interesting websites as I browse the web, so my bookmarks could be thought of as a trail of digital breadcrumbs. The existence of a bookmark here does not indicate any endorsement of the website or service.

I like tag all content on my site. See below for all tags used within my bookmarks.
