So that has me worried: What other technologies should I really be aware of and using that I am not using (or that most people are not using)?
Microfilm/microfiche. Stores data optically for approximately 300 years. Can be read with a magnifier and light source. I predict that in the future, this will be used to store "proven correct" source code and circuit diagrams. Pencil/Paper. Works at -30 Celcius, does not require power. Does not work well when wet though. Bicycle. More likely to be maintainable in a post-apocalyptic world than your car. Faster, more efficient than walking.

Jitsi looked interested as I really wanted something like this to replace Skype. But then I saw it was Java based and I hate Java apps. So... what a bummer. I stopped the install.
Isn't there something like this that isn't Java based?

The last three posts (prior to DeafBoy...he snuck in post while I was writing) put a huge grin on my face. That was funny. I to would have made the same simple mistake. Its crazy the OP didn't know about those other legacy items and ends up authoring bitmessage. That was a complete circle around! Great gift back to the community.

Very amazing stuff. It's very cool to see someone go from being a newbie to creating Bitmessage.

At this point I find myself reading research papers about messaging networks and anonymity on my way to work. So it is indeed a turn around. Though that doesn't mean that there aren't interesting tools and programs I don't know about and I would always like to learn more.

Opensource implementation: SbagenOne of the commercial products based on sbagen is iDoser. wow. im crazy skeptical about these sorts of things, but im pretty sure i feel a little bit high right now listening to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cHjaJRl1Qo my skeptical nature makes it seem unlikely that its pacebo... but i still have a hard time believing it even though i think i can feel it because it just seems like such a ridiculous thing. either way my mind is blown.
