#FF00AA


24 jan. 2005

I just received my very first spam on the account I dedicated to Gravatar. No thanks to the blogger who displayed my e-mail address unprotected on his site.

That’s why I signed garoo@example.com every time a blog demanded an e-mail address, and I’m not sure that Gravatar will ever catch on if they insist on checking the validity of addresses.

P.S. And Opera is too dumb to exempt outgoing messages from the manual anti-spam filter I’ve just had to set up.

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
