Hexamail says their Hexamail Guard spam filter is based on my work. Fun! 3:06:25 PM

I'm adding a prior art section to the Legal page at WeCanStopSpam.org. 2:43:39 PM

More prior art to any attempted patents on challenge-based anti-spam systems. As noted previously, MailFrontier says they have a patent pending on theirs.
The prior art link above points to an archive of a service that was apparently working on November 27, 1999 and, no doubt, earlier.
Thanks to a personal email from Faisal N. Jawdat.

Some questions and answers re my Linux Journal article. (For new readers, I wrote an article in the March 2003 issue of Linux Journal about a statistical approach to spam filtering; I can't point to it because it's only in the hard copy.) 12:32:27 PM

An amazing rant from Andrew Sullivan: "...we shouldn't be deluded into thinking that Islamism is some kind of legitimate religious faith: it's a murderous, suicidal, death-worshipping totalitarianism, built around the structure of a religion."
I am not a fan of any fundamentalist thinking, whether Islamic, Christian, pseudo-scientific (Nazi beliefs regarding "racial purity" being an example) or what-have-you, because of the mindless hate and destruction it seems inevitably to lead to. But it does seem that there may be a point in seeing the Islamic variation as uniquely "death-worshipping" among the major fundamentalist beliefs. |

A new Jeff Bezos patent which seems truly ludicrous and a discussion about it. [Slashdot]
Another amusing patent, albeit with perhaps fewer possible negative ramifications for the Internet industry: Method for swinging on a swing. |
