soupsoup: littleorphanammo: Social Network Life Cycles…more at Cracked The “Too Popular” part is the problem. We get new anchors who don’t understand the internet explaining sites they don’t understand to people who don’t understand why they can’t find they “any” key. Once the spammers realize that the sadly inept people have joined, they know they know they have a new tool to fool them with. Help desk example: “I just got a message on my screen that I have a virus and that I need to download a PC scanner” ….this person was on a mac with no virus software installed. It was a pop up ad for a spam site that spoofed a windows xp window. I think that’s all I need to say about that.
