Verify Your E-mail's Been Read

SpyPig is a simple email tracking system that sends you a notification email as soon as the recipient opens and reads your message.

SpyPig allows you to embed a small or invisible picture inside an e-mail. When that e-mail is opened in an e-mail client that supports loading of web pictures (most modern e-mail clients) SpyPig logs that access and allows you to see when that e-mail was opened. Actually works the same way a lot of advertising and spam e-mails work, this is how they know your e-mail address exists. Now you can use the technology for yourself.

If Seperatist Movements in America had succeeded .....

"Which raises the question, at least in Matthew White’s mind: “What is the most fragmented that North America could have been?” White’s website (from the mid-nineties, but still online) serves up several ‘alternate history’ maps, that use a POD (point of divergence) somewhere in the past to construct a present slightly (or wildly) different from ours. White’s Balkanised North America, with 1787 as the POD, is by far the most interesting exercise.
“In this alternate reality, the westward expansion of the Anglo-American people proceeded pretty much as it did in our reality,” White writes, “but the United States government just couldn’t keep up. Every national identity crisis resolved itself in favor of the separatists instead.”"
