Cryptocat et al., in the cloud no less!

When will Obama do the right thing re: marijuana?

So we have yet-another-president who's smoked pot. Yet, none have the chutzpah to push for an end to the war on drugs. Come on now, legalize marijuana at the federal level and be done with it!

Use Tor to Protect All of Us

Using Tor when you surf, if even for an hour at a time, strengthens the it for everyone. The more traffic in the Tor network, the harder it is to monitor and censor any one person. So try to use Tor at least some of the time when you surf.
