Too hot, horrible ideas.

I just had a horrible idea for how to test the mail-to-weblog feature. Don't follow this link.

This is a great idea tho... you should put good meta tags on this page and then when the spam-bots crawl to get addresses, they will get their own junk mail addresses, hence taking up more of their bandwidth and maybe eventually frustrating them. Good stuff.

The problem with this is that some of the images may be web bugs, so any time anyone views the page, your email address gets validated with the spammers.

The only good way to have them stop sending you this crap is to appear like a black hole to them.
