Spam Monster Eyes Another Target - Instant Messaging

Filed under: News — Charlie Summers @ 12:48 pm

From Wired News: Spim is to chat clients what spam is to e-mail — unsolicited messages from unknown losers pushing products and services. And it’s on the rise: Spim is expected to triple from 400 million messages in 2003 to 1.2 billion messages this year, according to Sara Radicati, president of technology market research firm The Radicati Group.
