Twitter Spam
August 3rd, 2007 by matt
I suppose it has to come, but it surprises me just a bit. Twitterspam.
I’ve had about 5 new followers on Twitter in the last couple of days who are doing nothing more than pimping their products - health supplements, get-rich-on-the-web programs, etc. I call it Twitterspam.
I suppose it makes marketing sense - Twitter is an easy way to get your “message” out to potentially a lot of people. It’s nice that one doesn’t have to follow the Twitterspamers so we don’t really have to see their updates, but I guess I’m just a little disappointed that spam has found its way into the reaches of an app like Twitter.
Maybe if we ignore them they will go away?
