The JaK Attack! Podcast

Summary: Jon Watson and Kelly Penguin Girl are probably best known as the hosts of the GNU/Linux User Show. After 30 shows on The Podcast Network, we've decided to go indie with our own brand of technology, politics, rants, and reviews. This show is free flowing, funny, and just a little too loud.

But, my browser became unique to 1 in 1,200 vice 1 in 250,000 with Javascript running.
