Facebook + AIM = evil

Tuesday | September 25, 2007 | 4:36 pm  

To the 105 people I spammed today via IM while play­ing with Facebook… my humble apologies.

That was way evil of me, and I’d say slightly evil of face­book to offer… in what uni­verse do folks want IM spam?

So aplo­gies for press­ing but­tons with­out thor­oughly read­ing what will happen before I press them.

Update: The only thing I could have done that would be worse, is this, a ser­vice that lets you blast mes­sages to your “friends” e-mail, IM and SMS, all at once. Yikes!
