Here’s a reminder: Global Nerdy, the tech news site that my buddy George and I write, is an ongoing concern! Here are the most recent stories:
- Spam’s “80-200″ Rule. 80% of the world’s spam — and remember, they say that about 90% of all email traffic is spam — comes from 200 operators.
- Makin’ the Gas Smell Like Ass. I knew kids huffed no-stick Pam and Pledge furniture spray to get high, but did you know they also huffed the compressed air you use to get rid of dust?
- iPod Amnesty Bin at Zune Headquarters. Ther Zune team’s internal jab at the iPod.
- Dialog Box of the Week. Its buttons are labelled in such a way that you can’t tell which one initiates which action.
- Why PR Doesn’t Work for High Tech (or: Guy Kawasaki is Wrong, Wrong, Wrong!) Guy and I differ on why PR doesn’t work for geeks.
