As a side note for any of you curious.  Incognito and Private browsing does leave traces, usually in flash cookies.  I am assuming that is where IEF is parsing this information.  (Maybe other locations as well.)  If so, it is cool that someone is now taking those cookies and parsing them out.

Changes to the blog.

Due to the random nature of release dates.  I will be making updates every Friday.  This will save me some time, and hopefully you as well, as Friday will be "new post day."

This way I can allot a solid block of time to the blog and be more thorough.

Thankyou
