You know what I'm talking about. That instant that you realize not only should you have knocked, but you should have waited for a reply too... You're forever scarred. You've witnessed the 2 most iconic figures in your life do things that those 2 iconic figures should have only done to conceive you and your siblings, and only then with the lights off.
Twitterspam is like that. Sadly I received my first today. Me being "me" I didn't automatically follow the sender, but I took a closer look, and I didn't like what I saw.
The sender is following 4,374 people. 203 were following him. I followed the link to his profile and found it was a combination of street/gangsta speak and consistent pleas to buy a stock. This was a first for me, like Russell Simmons (seriously? you don't know who he is? Def Jam? Did you ignore the 80's entirely?) had made a copy of a copy of himself.
The innocence that was Twitter is now lost. I fear a future of the already borderline annoying "microbloging" becoming "microspamming" thousands of emails, txt's and popups for crap I don't care the least bit about.
Won't someone please think of the twitterers?
