• A Beginner's Guide to Exploring the DarknetFor years I have been aware that a hidden Internet exists underneath the 'surface web', hidden from the view of ordinary web users. It always aroused my curiosity, but I never really followed up on that curiosity to see whether I could access this hidden Internet.

• Why I Ditched Photo Management Apps and Use Dropbox InsteadI’ve cycled through tons of photo apps and found little more than bloated software with excessive features I didn’t need. They filled up my hard drive, used excessive CPU cycles, and didn’t deliver the promise of organizing my photos with ease. Rather than continue on a pointless path, I took a step back, organized my photos with Dropbox, and solved all my problems. You can, too.
• How To Access The Deep Web or DarkNetYou may have heard that there is some mysterious hidden internet called the ‘Deep Web’ or the ‘DarkNet’ that you can’t get to from Google, and which is hidden from most web surfers. Perhaps tales of the dark marketplaces selling all kinds of legal and illicit goods anonymously for Bitcoin have picqued your curiosity, and you would like to take a look around and see what they are like. Perhaps you live in a country where social media and ordinary internet sites are censored and you would like to visit a place where everyone is free to speak their mind freely and without fear of repurcussion. Or perhaps you simply care about your privacy and security online and are attracted to the idea of an internet space where users are not constantly tracked, monitored, and analysed by manipulative marketeers, government spies and malicious hackers. All of these are common reasons why people become interested in visiting this hidden, anonymous internet space – but if you are like 99% of people you probably don’t have a clue how to access the so-called ‘darknet’ or ‘deep web’.
