That he's not trying very hard to vanish? The guy is still taking photos of his cat and uploading 'em to flickr. Also, he's hanging out in Wired reader central -- San Francisco and Santa Monica. If he really wanted to vanish he'd be camping in Utah by now.

Unless of course he's camping in Utah while leaving a false trail in California...

If he really wanted to disappear, he would delete his Flickr account, shut down his email address, and not say a word about where he is to anybody enough of an attention whore to pass the news along to Wired.

Part of the game is that he has to continue using Facebook, Flickr, his cell phone, etc.

Otherwise, he would just go sit in the woods for a month and it wouldn't be much of a game.
