As you may have noticed, the blog has moved to a WordPress system provided by the nice people at hostmonster.com. No more will the high-value audience of yourselves be harvested from visiting this blog, data-mined by the Googleplex and retargeted. It IS possible for digital advertisers to limit the data vacuum and take control of their ad stack – yes, you can!
Not to mention the sites you visited, what you did, saw ads on (possibly clicked)
and what you searched for!
And yes, The Tip of the Spear Blog is still rocking Piwik, open-source analytics!

And as a follow-up to the above, we’re now using Disqus to manage comments!
