[NetBehaviour] A Google Chrome extension

[Bjørn Magnhildøen]

Thanks for the link dave. There are so many open layers going into our
interfaces that they deserve to be intervened into, deconstructed,
destroyed, or subtly changed, to reveal, remove, obfuscate, adding a
critical distance or intimacy, derailing, drifting through the urban
net landscape, as long as it's still malleable, and breakable, open
source. we can take the source code of fb and throw it into a
washing-machine and watch it spin around with our socks and underwear,
that's a great feature.
regards,
bjørn
