I will never want for a source of spam again

TallTroll | SEO | Monday, August 6th, 2007

It’s something I’ve said to more than one client : “Your log files are your best source of data”. Well, it’s true of the logs here too. I will never want for a list of currently popular spam keywords (just don’t clear down Akismet for about 20 minutes). I will never want for the footprints of the latest spam campaigns (…/BLOG/ guy, and multiple-URLs-in-the-referrer-field-because-you-can’t-delimit-a-database guy, keyword–[prescription drug brandname]–[payday loans]-1.blospot.com guy and even Japanese BBS guy - I’M TALKING TO YOU!). I will never want for the faked email addresses of the truly staggering number of registered users I’ve acquired. I will never want for a huge list of proxy IPs to try out. I will never want for a source of spam again.

Very Zen, that. I like it.
