Code

I moved the code to its own page because it was taking up too much damn space.

Websites

1. txtor

   Txtor is dead! Long live Txtor! (I killed the site).

2. obfuscatr / obfuscateordie

   Obfuscatr encodes email addresses or other "sensitive" information for use in XHTML or Javascript. Obfuscate or Die is just a stupid pun.

1. Amazon Wish List
2. Posters: Napoleon's March (Untranslated) & Historic Visual Diary of Spaceflight
