  1. w/r/t "Is Twitter About to Have a Big Spam Problem?" There's a very cool capability in Twitter with the "@replies" setting. I have it set to "show me all", which means I see all messages 'directed' at me (via @), whether I'm following a person or not. I like it. Except, when people abuse it, like this. http://twitter.com/waydbot . What I will need in the future is a white list of people I'm willing to listen to but not follow, and some kind of hint for a person to have me add them to my white list.

  2. Patrick: yeah, you're right. I hadn't thought of that. There's that toggle to only show @'s from people you follow, but I have that turned off as I like to see comments directed my way from everyone. We'll see what happens with the @-Spam Hole.
