Spam

As some of you already know, I've always hated spam. Having had many e-mail aliases, I tend to get a lot of it. Yesterday, I counted 118 pieces of e-mail spam offering everything from printer toner to having my penis enlarged by four inches. Now that I'm not doing Inkspot anymore, my daily e-mail load is much less, but this means that picking out "real" pieces of e-mail from the growing amount of junk is becoming more and more difficult. I used to look forward to getting e-mail, back when the Internet appealed only to academic geeks. Now, however, the spam "noise" is getting highly annoying. Not sure what to do about it...I've tried filtering, changing e-mail addresses, changing my mailto: links, all to no avail. I've given up and am just trying to ignore it.

Blatherings now available in PDA-friendly format!

For those with Palm Pilots, I've created a Blatherings page with no left navigation bar and no graphics. Those interested should add the following channel to their Hotsynch schedule: http://www.electricpenguin.com/pda/blatherings.html.
