Spam literature

December 5, 2006

I have been feeling slightly guilty for signing up for a whole WordPress.com account, just so I can get an Askimet anti-spam key.

Well, I’ve finally thought of something to do with this space. Over at The Hive, Michelle muses on the beauty of some kinds of spam. She links to Joi Ito’s thoughts on comment spam poetry (“spam-ku”).

So, since I signed up for this blog precisely to combat spam, it struck me as apt to post comedy or interesting examples of the spam I recieve here.

I’m sure someone else is doing this too. I shall continue to do it here until I lose interest.
