title: "Introducing Stalker: Nickname History For Irssi"

Stalker is an Irssi plugin to correlate information on an IRC network and
discover users' previously used nicknames. The concept is fairly
straightforward: given a nickname identify previously used hostnames.
From those hostnames, extract all nicknames they have used. Repeat until you
have identified all nicknames a user might have used.
The advantage of this method over the more traditional "given a hostname
identify all nicknames it has used" is that you can identify nicknames across
hostmask addresses.
Stalker can be found on GitHub at
[http://github.com/symkat/Stalker](http://github.com/symkat/Stalker).
