potential plugin: stealth user tracking
I’m working on a new plugin that tracks individual visitors’ activity through a Textpattern site. It uses a stealthy method of identifying users that persists across browser restarts and IP changes – it’s very difficult to detect or defeat.
It’s a little bit clever, and a little bit evil.
I’m not sure yet, but this might become a commercial plugin (the first?). More here.

OT
If you use your new zem_image_replace on your site you need to rethink it since the images are waaaaaaaay off to the right, atleast in Opera7.51.
Plugins: ob1_advanced_search 1.032b, ob1_search_score 1.0, ob1_pagination 2.5, ob1_title 4.1, ob1_modified 2.1

I’m testing workarounds for alignment issues.

Also get a missing font error at http://vigilant.tv/threshold/
From the comments sounds like another web bug. Wouldn’t it be sotped by “bug-blockers”?
