Send stealthy, encrypted missives via the web with Norbt
I don't often need to send ultra-secure messages to people. There's just not all that much highly-sensitive information I need to communicate. If I did, though, Norbt would be a slick way to do it.
Norbt (not to be confused with Eddie Murphy's epic film character) uses client side, browser-based cryptography to secure your transmissions. Your recipient must correctly answer the secret question. Once they do, your note is decrypted and displayed for their eyes only.
You also need to provide a password when creating your Norbt - just in case you need to go back and change some of the details.
Even if you don't have a practical reason to use a service like Norbt, it's still a fun way for you and your pals to feel like you're part of some elite spy network.

Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...

That's pretty neat. I loved my spy markers.
But isn't 6 * 9 = 54, not 42. Oh well.

42 is the answer to the Ultimate Question so 6 * 9 = 42.
