A few days ago, Diane O’Donovan asked if there was a good place online to ask me questions about “The Curse of the Voynich”: but because I’m not a part of the main Voynich mailing list (sadly, I don’t have nearly enough spare time to sift through all that chaff), the answer was a no.

However, I’ve just now added in a “Tal.ki” forum plugin to the Cipher Mysteries WordPress install, which you can get to easily here. I don’t know how it’s going to work out, nor what open topics people would like to have there: but it’s up and working so let’s find out!

The most immediate limitation is that it uses Facebook for logging in (and I don’t like Facebook much). Still, it is what it is (both easy to install and free), so we shall see…

    Dear Nick,

    No can do. Luv your blog. F–cebook is bad, very, very bad! Much stalking, much porno invasions.

    I’ll continue to read whatever you are able to continue to post as you’ve done in the past.

    Sincerely,
    %-( my “smiley” for not being able to smile

    Forum link has gone away..

  4. …and it’s back again (the main tal.ki site was down for the day, I don’t know why).

  5. …and so others know, and that no-one is discouraged from logging in to the forum: you can log onto it with many different ID’s: facebook, twitter, google, yahoo, paypal,
    OpenID, myspace, aol, wordpress (I used this), windows live ID, blogger, and linkedin.
