A lot of folks on the internet do not like using cookies, mostly
because they are afraid of Big Brother looking over their shoulders
and finding out exactly what they are doing....
As it turns out, this fear is not entirely unfounded.
Sadly, with all of our modern web technology, I have still been unable
to make a 100% reliable user connection algorithm that doesn't use
cookies. I'm really sorry about that, but it's pretty much the way
things are.
Therefore, werdna.com allows users to log in without cookies, using the IP
address of the user's machine to figure out who they are. The login
times out after a while, but while it is active, anyone using your IP
address will be able to see your pages and pretend to be YOU. Be sure
to hit the Log Out! link in the header when you are finished playing.
For most people, this doesn't really matter very much. However,
sometimes you will find yourself sharing an IP address. If you are
having problems, turn cookies back on while you are playing on werdna.com.
werdna.com only leaves a single cookie, containing a session id. You are
safe from us. For your convenience, next to your handle in the header
of each page, werdna.com will tell you what method it is currently using
to determine who you are (Cookie or IP).
If someone out there has a brilliant plan to allow safe logins without
cookies or java or browser-dependent code, please let me know at the
address at the bottom of the page.
