Spam Is The Product Of The Year?

from the most-disruptive-force dept

Research and consulting firm Basex has declared that spam is "The Product of the Year". The thinking, of course, is that the product of the year doesn't necessarily need to be good, but it should be the most disruptive - and spam can certainly lay a claim to that. It's one of the most recognized technology "products" and it is changing the way people use the internet. Hopefully, this is one product that will find itself to be a "fad" more than a real long term offering.

    We could only hope that it is a 'Fad'. If so, it has been a long drawn out fad over what, five/ten (or more) years?
