About this site

Welcome to the Landmark Web. This site is a guide to the issues
surrounding personal computing and effective use of your own PC.
Our restless friend Impatience is waiting for Landmark's new Web
site to become active. The Landmark Web, so au courant when we
launched in 1995, has become a dinosaur and we know it! We were distracted
by a corporate merger six years ago that we have now undone. With the
revival of Landmark Labs comes a new Web presence and an
electronic newsletter, The View from
Landmark. We expect to have the company and both new Web sites in
place by early 2004. We're working on it!
Meanwhile, this site, www.landmark.org, will continue to
devolve. If you need to find anything, use our internal search feature.
All current pages will remain in place, but pointers to them may disappear
if they've become obsolete. (Bookmark them now if you need them.)
Yes, we will fix outdated links to external sites.
Your feedback is always
welcome.
 Worried about aliens controlling you? It
was in the early 1900s that Nikola Tesla supposedly built a
helmet to ward off mind-control devices. Now you can make your own
"thought screen helmet" from newspaper, wrapping tape, and conductive
film following instructions posted at the Stop Alien Abductions Web
site. But according to the Washington City Paper's
Straight Dope
column, covering only your head with the helmet will cause it to serve
as an antenna, broadcasting your innermost thoughts to the world.
We are unable to confirm that the helmet actually had anything to
do with Tesla. But if anybody could build it, it was he. Some links to this
Hungarian genius, and a bit of his
autobiography. Your comments, please.
- Potato Power: TotL.net bills its new Linux Spudserver
as the "world's first vegetable powered web server." A dozen potatoes
provide electricity.
Don't try this at home! We'd be pleased to build you a
conventionally powered Landmark server. When the technological time is
ripe, we'll upgrade you to a potato-powered model.
SmartNet
users: The Postini spam filter has arrived, and
we hope you are making use of it. But did you know you can set up an
alternate spam filter to delete unsolicited e-mail from specific
senders automatically? You can forward some or all of your mail to
another e-mail account--useful when you're traveling. You can even
forward junk mail to the people who have been spamming you! For details,
click here. (We
can set up spam filters and redirects for you. Click here to contact us.)
