just stumbled across a very handy service called spamgourmet.

the problem: surfing the internet u need to give away your mail details for registration or confirmation issues. sometimes the site u trust with your information sells it to spamservers, ect. ... and now you´re getting all kind of stock allerts and viagra advertising. damn.

spamgourmet gives u the opportunity to create an infinite number of mail accounts and specify how many mail can be send to it. all mails will be spamfiltered and afterwards forewarded to your protected adress.

like this:

(any word).(number of emails).(username)@spamgourmet.com

ex: nomorespam.5.clrcdd@spamgourmet.com would allow to send 5 emails to this specific address.

 

go get it @ www.spamgourmet.com

Cory Doctorow is an activist/sci-fi writer/blogger/public speaker/technology person and canadian.

Some common themes of his work include digital rights management, file sharing, Disney, and post-scarcity economics.

All of his books are available 4free on his website in all possible formats & the community is contributing language translations, artwork, conversions ect.

 

I am pro-user, and while I’ll tolerate just about any re-use of my books, the one perversion I won’t stomach is the use of bullshit DRM in connection with it, if I can help it. (quote: ground-rules for DIY file-conversions ;) )

 

 

The author will be in vienna for monochrom´s taugshow # 15 which will take place @ Brut, Konzerthaus.

Fri November 23, 8:00pm.
