Blogging at it's best
The Guardian has to have the best blog entry ever. It's no good Jim, I'm cracking up, which has a link to William Shatner’s version of Rocket Man by Elton John. Who would have thought that there was worse out there than “Agadoo” ?

also from the Guardian, make love not spam screensaver:

I just downloaded it from here
as the Guardian link doesn't seem to work.

I checked the Review at CNet first

It has to be said that the best part of Shatner's interpretation is the introduction by Bernie Taupin.. "truly proud", Bernie?.. really?

Dav, I installed the spam screensaver a few days ago. Good idea I reckon, wonder how much effect it will have.

If enough of us install it, hopefully it will at least irritate the spammers :)

That spam thing worries me, and surely must be legally dodgy.

And what happens when the first false positive gets done? I fear lots and lots of people will get taken for harrassment, and get a big settlement. Hmmm, I wonder if I can get myself on the spammers list?
