Beautiful looking site Mike and great domain name
Can you elaborate on the problem with randomness for us non-geeks? What is the issue with how other "address generators" generate addresses?
Is it a security risk?

Hi everyone
I've created OfflineAddress.com - cool new open-source site for generating safe and truly random offline Bitcoin addresses.
Seems like the whole world ignores the problem with bad randomness when generating Bitcoin addresses, and thinks that anything created with PSEUDORANDOM numbers is secure.
I needed a secure way to generate Bitcoin addresses for myself - so being a programmer and open-source geek, I decide to do it myself (and make the world a better place, of course
).
Check it out.
Please comment, commit (on GitHub), suggest what to add ...
Cheers!
UPDATE 01/11/2014: I've added more description about the site here: http://www.offlineaddress.com/?site=about
(p.s. I've mentioned this site in Newbies forum, but nobody reads that, so I'm writing a new topic. I hope that's fine. Peace. )
