David Pogue blacklists Google, sings uplifting show tune

Perhaps something to do with the recent explosion of spam accounts on gmail? Was reading about it on /. - the captcha test had been broken / worked around and thousands of fake accounts were being created. Guess they're being put to use.

SORBS sucks alright though, I also can't believe anyone big is using them.

@Publitor: After rolling with Jason Calacanis in Vegas, he's lucky I'd want to have coffee with him.

How can a reputable publication such as the New York times (well, never mind that Jason Blair stuff) rely on Sorbs to filter their e-mail. They should have at least checked on the type of people they are dealing with...

It's so cute that you thought he'd want to have coffee with you.

Pogue's a magician, ask him to make the blacklist disappear.
