The Break-Up

Posted on May 15, 2007 by Kathryn Regina.

Microsoft Digital Advertising Solutions is making a mini-movie about the disjunction between advertisers and consumers. It's called "The Break-Up" and it's replete with actual Hollywood actors, a movie poster, and a great tag line:

She is a consumer.

He is an advertiser.

All she wants is genuine affection.

All he gives is loyalty reduction.

The Break-up: A story of love gone wrong.

Coming Soon.

Learn more about the mini-movie at Bring the love back.

The Latest Strategy for Spam: Hijacking

Posted on April 25, 2007 by Kevin G.

Spam messages infest our inboxes and inundate filters on a daily basis.  It seems to be a continuous war of programmers vs. spammers. 

According to Commtouch’s 2007 Spam Trend Report, 85-90 percent of all emails are sneaky spam messages.  According to the report, the newest and most prominent form of spam aims to hijack the likeness of a legitimate email message.

The early forms of spam were easy to spot from subject lines using the seven words never to use in email marketing.  Now they carry the likeness of a normal message with a mixture of images and text.  Since most email service providers track an opened message from images populating, the average spam will now have an image at the top to fool spam filters.

When the newest methods of filtering are developed and integrated, they are already outdated by the continuous cycle of spam sophistication.  It seems like an endless rat race to stay on top.  You can read more about the newest trend in spam messages here.
