Title: Surf the Web Anonymously

Sadly, remaining anonymous online isn't easy. Everything from search engines to social networking sites are dropping cookies, or little data files, in your web browser to track your behavior: which links you click, which ads you click, where you are and more.

Want to maintain some sense of privacy while online? To stop such data gathering will take a bit for work on your part, but it is possible. Don't worry, it won't break the world wide web. Everything will work just as before, but no one will know who you are.

Naa, boring.  I just find it interesting, as most of these articles advise stuff like cookie killing, which many of us do anyway.  :)
