A minor little janitorial update: to save bandwidth, neverssl.com is experimenting with returning tiny responses to a number of appliances and network monitoring systems that embedded "neverssl.com" in their Internet reachability monitors.

Three days ago we made the same change for callers with an empty User-Agent, and it's halved the bandwidth being served!

We said it would never happen ... we lied! neverssl.com now supports ssl, as some browsers and sites automatically use https even when you don't type that in. You get a browser-cacheable page that still helps you get online by forcing a request that ... never uses ssl.

Big News! neverssl.com is now using advanced cache-busting by default. Even if your browser caches the page, or if your ISP tries to, neverssl.com will find a way to help you out and get you online. Spread the news!

After using wifi in 3 airports and 4 planes this weekend, I've created neverssl.com to make logging on a little bit easier.
