Messing With Spammers

I was sitting here on IM bothering no one when I see “sanjeev0907@gmail.com wishes to chat with you” I accept it because why not?

me: and how much does this stuff cost?

sanjeev0907: It depends on website

3:33 PM me: well first off, I know how to do that my self. second, there is no way to guarentee such a thing. third off, you have not done much research, because I have the first result in google for my most important terms already.

Can you please tell me once more your web site name

me: hah. great marketing!

please remove me from your list. SEO is junk, and I can do it myself. This is an unsolicited commercial message, and is thus considered spam and is illegal per the Can Spam Act. I will be reporting your gmail account, and will be spreading the word on how your company uses these tactics.

3:35 PM This conversation has been recorded, and will be posted all over the web to make a fool of your company.

Random Status Messages

I decided to start a collection of random status messages people have set on their IM:

  • Oh to be alone.
    Them: it’d be nice not to have to deal with people for a while
    Them: people, hw, no sleep, other people’s opinions always trumping mine, etc.
    Them: i’m sooooooooo living alone asap
    Them: as soon as i can pay the rent by myself, by myself will i be

  • Happy
  • trevor get the file
  • I love you!!!
  • Kenneth? Who me?
  • Confound the Law of Expanding Homework!This accursed law which declares that an assignment will, under all circumstances, take exactly the amount of time one has to complete it.

    What would Bach do?
    He’d go practice Partita No.2 in D minor, 1st mvt.

  • When I’m alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall/ and in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call/ Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove/ for the first time in my life, I see I need love/ There I was giggling about the games…

And then you have the people with old away messages that applied last week:

  • study for calc

Have any guesses on the personalities of the people with these statuses? Or at least their gender?

Pidgin

Pidgin is the best instant messenger program available. It is compatible with all of your friends on AIM, MSN, Yahoo!, Jabber, Google Talk, ICQ and IRC. A bonus feature is that instead of people’s screen names, you can set the software to show real names instead. Pidgin had a plugin based structure, meaning many features can be added by downloading more software. For example, I have a plugin that is used by everyone is in a conversation and has the effect of writing all messages being written in code and burned after reading. Gaim is also an open source project, meaning the code that runs it is freely available for download and modification. Because of this, this software is one-hundred percent free.
