Maybe I look stupid . . .

. . . but I do know how to run a search engine!

I got a comment on a recent post, UberTwitter for BlackBerry – Everything TwitterBerry Wishes it Was, that was from a source that made it look like spam. But the comment itself said “Hey, great post, very well written. You should write more about this.” Hmmm. Pretty generic, but it might just not be very imaginative. Is it live, or is it Memorex? Well, that’s what copy-and-paste and search engines were invented for. Grab the whole phrase, head over to AltaVista Advanced Search and do a search for the exact phrase.

Yeah. 173 results, all apparently by the same spammer. I deleted the comment. Guess I’m not as stupid as I look.
