My Paper Enigma was featured on the March 24, 2008 Bruce Schneier on Security blog!
Daily traffic to this page jumped from about 40/day to 4,000 yesterday (and I received 3 new orders for my $10 10-pack of Paper Enigmas).

I was triggered to search for Enigma stuff when I got involved in setting up a website of a 19th century Fort near Amsterdam, Holland.
One of the 42 fortifications of the "Stelling van Amsterdam". and found in one of the exibition rooms of the fort original Enigma things in display.

I just noticed this mention on my Paper Enigma from April 2006 in Information Week!
1 FaverShareViewed: 9 TimesQuoted: Cryptologists operating on a shoestring can produce Enigma-quality ciphers by downloading and printing a simple one-page PDF file. The paper version of the device "is compatible with the original 3-rotor German Enigma used during World War II," says its maker, Mike Koss, on his Web site.
U-505 Submarine was captured during WWII. This M-4 Enigma was on board. Now on display in Chicago.

Just a light and fun little quiz for your Friday afternoon. I wrote this one -- Happyfuntimes!
1 FaverViewed: 2 TimesQuoted: Kings, queens and other nobility are expected to protect their people and to be shining examples of benevolence throughout their kingdoms. History, however, has revealed several rulers to be more monster than majesty. The egomaniacs in this quiz made real life for their people more horrifying than any ghost story. Fancy a frolic through the mayhem? Careful, making sense of these sordid details will require you to use your head ... or lose it!
