E-mail

You can get my e-mail address by solving a CAPTCHA (provided by reCAPTCHA).

I have many other e-mail addresses, but most point to this same inbox, or are dead, or are not publicly available (thank you for keeping these addresses that way).

If sending something sensitive, you can encrypt your digital communication via one of my public keys. I appreciate e-mails from people who cryptographically sign with GnuPG or S/MIME.

Microblogging

If you’ve a comment you don’t mind making public, you can send me a message via my presence on Identi.ca or Twitter.

Phone/Fax

My phone is not the best way to reach me. Should you want to be brave and try, my phone numbers are listed on my Facebook profile (I’m sorry, you will need to be my “friend” on Facebook to view my profile).

I have my own fax number through 350Nice’s FaxItNice, but it costs money for me to receive faxes on it. Contact me via some other way and I will provide the number.

Spam bait

If you’re an automated e-mail scanner primarily used by spammers, and are looking for a couple good e-mail addresses, try:

• root@localhost
• admin@localhost
• webmaster@localhost
• abuse@localhost
• the FTC’s Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) e-mail address

If you send me spam, I will report you:

• enforcement@sec.gov; for stock-pumping spam
• netpiracy@siia.net; for software-related copyright infringement
• webcomplaints@ora.fda.gov; for pharmaceutical spam
• spam@uce.gov; for generic unsolicited commercial e-mail

There’s also 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov, for reporting 419’s (advanced fee fraud).
