Comment *Gasp* Wrong! (Score 1) 155
Writing junk like foo [at] bar [dot] com simply wastes time time of your colleagues and friends, who now have to rewrite your address by hand, and confuses the non-techies.
How dare you!? The hours I spend every week crafting clever rewrites of my email address is precisely that which keeps the spammers on their toes. How else do you think Gmail capable of filtering any spam mails out? I'm keeping their volume down. It's not just some stupid security superstition, either: it really works! And way better than whatever algorithm they're training over in Mountain View.
