November 25, 2010Coming Soon To An Inbox Near You: Location Based Spam
November 24, 2010Just think – as Facebook continues to gather more data on its users, inactive Facebook accounts like mine will receive “targeted” email in their inbox via non-published email addresses like mine below.
Location Based Spam
What’s odd about this email is it was sent to an address which is only published in one single and exclusive offline printed directory. There are no online versions of the directory nor is this particular email published anywhere else.
The spammer assumed I had an active Facebook account and that somehow the odds of my having a Facebook account were great enough that they could convert their spam email into a “fan” of their group.
I don’t think so.

Silicon Valley: Socializing The Public’s Privacy…
November 19, 2010Socialize public privacy then privatize and profit from the public’s loss of privacy – or at least try to.
This explains the social in Social Media.
I couldn’t have summarized the present state of the Venture Capital industry and the internet at large any better than if I were a Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist.

The One Language Google Can’t Translate Yet
November 16, 2010While Google can translate 50 languages, there is still one language Google hasn’t yet been able to translate – the “Stomach” language.
