Actually there is another feature of Gmail that was advertised through their blog. And it states that me+nospam@gmail.com is directed to me@gmail.com

So basically all the characters after the + sign (including it) in the email address is stripped to determine to receiver. You will see that the email has been sent to me+nospam@gmail.com and then can filter on it. If used intelligently, it can tell you which site is selling your email address to other 3rd party companies.
