Welcome to 0x0x - A Site for Righteous Interfaces

This site is dedicated to protocols and services designed to appeal to hackers ("hackers" in the original sense -- people who love coding and making things happen with computers).

We publish information about simple and interesting technologies and efforts that merit attention from the community of geeks who live and play on the internet, and also run some services to let us play with these ideas.

Forgive our sparse appearence, we're really just starting out.
