That's not fair...you're here every week :~).. And most other weeks that have days in them too.

Re: A List of Dead Links

Oh, you're cool. I was just putting it out there that there's a ton of links gone bad. And for the record, erehwon, there is no link or otherwise at the top of the page for broken links. It simply states to report them. Otherwise, I would have hit said missing link. And I say that most respectfully.

No worries, someone in the house drank the last of the caffeinated drinks, and didn't add it to my grocery list, lack of sugar and caffeine at that hour and I get a little antsy.

Additional dead links from the BBC.

Re: A List of Dead Links

Thanks for bringing this all up again guys.

The links page, along with the mailing list page and books page are all currently being redesigned. We are adding a movie and a music page too.

Back when there were very few books on computer security it made sense to point to the good ones. Same with links to sites. Now there is an embarrassment of riches in the space and it is hard to keep up. To help with that the new home page Neil is working on will be more mobile friendly, more focused on solcial aspects, how to get involved, and other resources. I want the new site to help bring people in and give them some sort of direction.

I'm sorry the old pages have dried up and died, but we are in the process of breathing new life into them.

Re: A List of Dead Links

If you want your URL added, just send them to the blackbeetle at defcon.org, but be sure to tell us what category you want to have it listed under!

NOTE: Report dead links! New links will be added as we recieve them.[/B]

Seemed obvious enough to me.

And for the record, erehwon, there is no link or otherwise at the top of the page for broken links. It simply states to report them.

What I think he meant was you are suppose to report bad links to blackbeetle at defcon.org.

Re: A List of Dead Links

Be confused all you like, but reporting them hasn't seemed to make much difference. Some time ago, the site (other than the main pages) reverted to an older version (I'm just guessing), and *we* (as in the dc-stuff mailing list) disappeared off of it as well. I've sent in updates, more than once, and pretty much nothing has happened. They're all mostly hidden links anyway, so I'm not sure whether it matters or not.

If I sound undiplomatic or unpleasant, sorry. I just barely started drinking coffee, and that may mean I'm not my normal sweet self.

Re: A List of Dead Links

So, I was perusing the Link-O-Rama page, and I happened upon a great many dead links. I couldn't find where to post/report on dead links, so I'm going to post a thread about it and hope that a mod stumbles across my findings. The list is as follows:

[...]

This is a fairly long list, to be sure. Again, I looked for another place to report these, but I could not find one (or perhaps I didn't see it, I'm new here). So, lemme know if I'm being an asshole by posting this, and where to report in the future.
