| About Warchalking |
Let's pretend I didn't get this layout from some schlockey free layout site and that I'm some kind of professional for at least a second and a half. Now tell me how you feel.
For those who aren't familiar, the concept of warchalking is simple. In the pioneer days of wireless networks, large corporate buildings would have private networks running all through them. Hackers would systematically exploit the security, then explain what kind of security was in place to other hackers that came by through a simple form of symbols not unlike hobo glyphs in chalk on the side of said building.
________________________________________________________________
I love the idea of systematically tapping at things hidden, things other people can use, busting through the red tape and leaving maps for anybody who cares to go back in. I've used a lot of these routes left by other miners looking for truth or at least a differing opinion than what's on the table. So the project became titled Warchalking; its all symbols and maps that point the way to more information. Some of it may be penultimate truths, some may be psychobabble bullshit. Doesn't matter. Whatever it may be, its honest if nothing else, because I don't know how to do this any other way.

If it sounds good, get it.
