Wardriving Software Downloads - WardrivingOnline.com - more education; I'm trying to get my WRT to do all the work for me

traffic - today, as I was driving, I thought about modeling traffic as a phenomena based on simple rules/behavior followed/exhibited by a group of individuals.

"something else" - there was something else I felt like modeling, also.  I can't recall what it was - I probably will recall when I lay my head to sleep (soon).  Suffice to say that it was something I'd like to model or consider that was similar to traffic... hmmm.


hacking, wireless, gas prices, economy, economics, modeling

I love TOMATO!!!

http://joshhighland.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/tomato_linux_router.jpg

if you have one of the supported routers (ie. the linksys wireless that EVERYONE has) and you don't have tomato installed then you are missing out!

I went from a modded DD-WRT v4d to Tomato and I won't look back... so much faster.. so much nicer - graphs and stuff... WOW!!!
