I received a Zagat spam touting .mobi.

I know that the news on Zagat launching .mobi is day old bread... or even weekend old bread.

However, I was uberexited to see some spammin' going on. Zagat.mobi slammed my box with a spam... I was even more pleased to get a FWD from my father-in-law with the same Zagat.mobi spam.

I've never been that happy to get an uninvited email.

They were beaten however, by another company in the first spam email I have heard of. It also happened this weekend, as heard in the old place

Any idea how they got your e-mail address Jeremy? Hard to imagine they would engage in mass e-mail spam.

Scandi!

Definitely know how this happened.

I like to eat at nice restaurants every now and then... Years ago I signed up for Zagat. It's a very helpful service in the big cities.

I hear from Zagat maybe 1 time per year.

Today happened to be spamolicious.

And, then got the FWD from my father-in-law with the same spam.

I loved it.

OK, so not quite like the spam that fills my inbox then. I bet you had a very big grin when you got those e-mails! Always nice to see a vision for the future materializing.

Jeremy Ha. Spam email happy!! Hopefully there will lots more, and soon. (from others than Zagat that is.)


OK, so not quite like the spam that fills my inbox then... one should not use their real email address when porn surfing. :tongue:
