I say that you should try Firesay

Firesay, a Firefox addon from http://www.firesay.com/ allows you to use voice commands to surf the web without even touching your keyboard or mouse.
I have embedded their demo video here:


If you try it out, leave a comment to let me know what you think.

BBot 4.0 is Out!

This weekend I released BBot 4.0 with numerous improvements and fixes to the API and modules in general. Here is the quick list:
* Fixed Module Loading
* Fixed the API so that it calls the proper functions of the modules on a message
* Added the get_raw function to api.module to be overwritten by modules
* Added mass-hilight protection to BlockBot()
* Improved speed in BBot(), and BlockBot():
  * It is now recommended to use "if 'hi' in data" instead of "if data.find('hi')!=-1" as it is faster
*Added a new module, grepfwd, which needs to be loaded before use.

You can download the latest version of BBot on BBot's SourceForge Page or you can download an older version on the BBot Files Page.

Also, I setup the BBot forums on SourceForge, so you can get support for BBot or any modules there. You can also get support on irc.fossnet.info in the channels #bots and #bbot.

Data Destruction

Today, I am doing some tests on data destruction against professional grade equipment.
==EDIT==
I finally got the drives back. It appears that using the "dd" command to write over your dives works the best, and the shred command works great as well for shreding specific file.
