I found a link to this list in rojo.

Very interesting, especially if you look up some of the names that are not immediately recognizable as a high-tech company of some sort.

For instance, toad.com, site of a vocal libertarian and founder of the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

I've been hearing a lot about the EFF lately through podcasts such as IT Conversation. Turns out it's not the "Electronic Freedom Foundation" as I had thought, and apparently many others (if google search results are any indication).

Until now I hadn't actually taken the time to look it up, but after reading this week that they cracked a code which enables tracking of any output from a long list of color printers, I am definitely looking into and adding EFF to my Christmas list. No, not to be put in my stocking or under the tree--to receive a donation from me!

Here's another really important thing publicized by EFF--some new "features" in the latest World of Warcraft. Doesn't affect me at all, but could be bad news for Patrick and Vince!
