Spam is more than canned quasi-meat

   Posted by: Yoggie   in Wistful Meanderings

I get a lot of spam in my email accounts like most other people do.  I don’t exactly know how the spammers get some of my addresses, but they always manage to do so after awhile.  I still do not fully understand the whole concept of sending huge number of the same email over and over again is supposed to be good advertising.  Yes, I realize it is usually for male-enhancement pills and dating sites and I know that some people (somewhere around 5%) actually do respond to some of the spam.  Since email is cheap I can see how the profit outweighs the cost, one person buying the product (and many times it is a legitimate product if not a reputable one) can finance millions of emails.

But I really don’t understand spamming little known and sparsely read blogs.
