Judging by my inbox and the spam filter here on the blog spammers have taken the week off. We’re mostly following suit here, and I won’t be blogging the rest of the week.
To all my fellow American residents, enjoy the day off and the fireworks. Be careful if you are setting some off and live in a dry area, fires are scary.
This morning was the final flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavor. In fact, it was the last flight of any shuttle ever, anywhere. We were lucky enough to get passes to NASA Ames Research Center at Moffett Field to watch the flyover.
It seems I’ve hit the wall on short and easy blog posts to write recently. There’s a lot I want to talk about like the recent changes at Spamhaus, filtering in the upcoming year and where I see the industry going, some thoughts on DKIM and how folks are using it. All of these things, though, will take some focused writhing time. And right now most of my focused writing time is spent on customer work.
I don’t even have time to read other blogs to comment on things folks are saying.
So blogging is likely to be light over the next few weeks, although I’m going to try very hard to get posts up 3 times a week.
It’s thanksgiving here in the US and most of us are off eating way to much food with family and friends. But that doesn’t mean I can’t take a few minutes to give thanks.
I am thankful for reasonably effective spam filters.
I am thankful for ESPs and ISPs who actually take action on complaints.
I am thankful for the unsung folks who keep email useful.
I am thankful for my readers who tell me they enjoy, even if they don’t agree with, my blog posts.
For all my US readers, enjoy your holiday. For all my non-US readers, check back Monday for more posts.
