You’ve Got Not-Spam
The latest idea in the fight against spam is “Goodmail”, a company that wants to charge a penny per e-mail, as detailed in an opinion piece in the NY Times last week by Esther Dyson. I still like the idea of using computational “costs” as opposed to dollar and cent costs, which has been proposed by a few different people at various times. However they do it, I am looking forward to the day when spam is a thing of the past. Will such a day ever come? I must get twenty to forty spam e-mails each day in my non-Gmail account. It drives me crazy.
