Our good friends at Adafruit have been working on a Tor proxy box based around a Pi, which directs your internet traffic through the Tor routing service. I’ll be working on a post about what we got up to with the amazing Pi community in Japan for later in the week, but for now, here’s something topical. On that note, if you want to email me this week, it’d be great if you could wait until next week if your mail isn’t blindingly urgent: I’ve got a backlog of hundreds and hundreds of mails to work through at the moment because I haven’t been able to check them while I’ve been off, and it’s going to take me a while to get through them all. Doing anything (walking up the stairs, watering the garden) still leaves me feeling like I’ve just run a marathon, so I’ll be taking things slowly for a few days. I’m much improved, but still a little wobbly. Then it got even worse, and I started wishing I was dying.

It started as what I thought was a bad cold, but kept getting worse, until it got to a point when I couldn’t get my head off the pillow and thought I was dying. Turned out that I had a really unusually nasty dose of ‘flu. As you can see, I’m upright and typing again.
