Tries to sell all his possessions in EBay but fails…

October 1, 2005

And guess how much he could fetch if the deal goes through? More than GBP 22 000! (GBP means Great Britain Pounds…if you’re curious :P )

The bid started at GBP 1, and within 10 days, it shot up to that amount. Impressive? Guess not, the winning bidder pulled out the very last minute; 30 seconds before the bid closed.

Reducing spam by icon generator?

These are the two websites for generating email icons. So instead of publishing superman@hotmail.com or superman@gmail.com, your email address will be displayed on an image (so it’s not clickable and spam robots won’t be able to get your email address).

Here you go:
http://services.nexodyne.com/email/index.php (for Hotmail, Yahoo, GMail, and many more)
http://gizmo967.mgs3.org/Gmail/ (for GMail only)

Well, some people might say that these websites will sell your email to unknown 3rd party….to be honest, I’m not sure (even if they have a privacy policy, but who knows right?). If that’s the case, I guess the safest way to protect your email is to just type it as superman[AT]godzilla[DOT]com if you’re going to publish it on the internet. :P
