Google is up to some new tricks with the recent release of The Niantic Project. Now what is the Niantic Project? That’s the real question. The popular and most logical theory right now is that it is an ARG (Alternate Reality Game).

Just another quick post to announce to the world that I have once again updated the projects page.  This time around I have added a new website that was quick to implement and hopefully will serve as a place for some quick laughs and enjoyment.

The website that was added is titled Tasty Spam,  and is designed to take a look at the humor that is freely included with some email spam that is sent out today.  Whether it be mocking the Engrish that is used or simply the random subjects or included content it’s all designed towards bringing the humor or fail out of the annoyance that is induced by spam.

Here is where I need your help, I need more spam.  I have a good deal of emails built up from personal accounts and from those closest to me, but I need more.  So please email me your spam atgetstastyspam@gmail.com,  it will finally be a good use for all that spam mail you get.
