Twitter’s Spam User

Posted in Memes, Twitter by Elliott Back on March 21st, 2009.

Twitter runs a little account @spam where you can send direct messages to point out spammers:

Today they’ve been quite noisy, inundating me with a flurry of poorly thought-out, and then corrective, text messages.

Hurray, I’m being spammed by the spam-reporting service….
