Huge thanks to the inimitable Steve G. Steinberg, aka "Frank Drake," who is departing the guest-blogger slot today after a smoking two-week stint. Tough act to follow. We'll miss you, Steve.
Starting today, the BoingBoing guestbar torch is passed to Macki of Rotten.com, whose guest-guest-guestbar hijinks regular readers may recall. We don't have much info on Macki — all we know is that he's said to be some sort of hacker, he works for Rotten, and appeared in the movie "Freedom Downtime" (about the movement to free Kevin Mitnick). He was 2600's webmaster for two years, during which he worked on the Free Kevin campaign, posted DeCSS on the 2600 website, and assisted with the subsequent lawsuit. Recent projects include Am I Governor Or Not and Avrilution. I once phonecammed him trying to work up the nerve to make a pass at Ronald Reagan. Someone else once caught him hamming for the camera while standing on John Gilmore's shoulders.
Prior to becoming nefarious and ph34red, Macki was once innocent and cuddly, a fact the photograph to the left clearly proves. That's Macki dressed up as Michael Jackson, as you can see from the the sequined glove and Thriller button. Anyway, welcome.
