Hmm. TechDigest picked up my piece about EB BlueSpamming people, incompletely crediting Blueserker with the story. Incompletely, as Blueserker did run it, crediting me, but then I got it from CNN (albeit putting a very different spin on it), so where do you stop with this linking business?
Anyway, TechDigest also add:
We’re always hearing stories about how shoppers get spammed in Bluewater mega shopping centre by all and sundry, but we’ve never experienced it first hand.
I’d be interested to hear what they’ve heard about Bluewater. Is there something new in the way of BlueSpam or even good old-fashioned SMS spam?
Or could they be referring to the ZagMe service, which I was involved in running there a few years back, I wonder? In which case, they’re a little fuzzy about the facts as it was an opt-in and targeted service, which means it’s not spam, by any definition.
85,000 people opted in to ZagMe, many recommended by friends, so we must have done something to make people happy.
Anyone interested in finding out more about ZagMe, email me for my free White Paper – still the most comprehensive source of what actually happens when you run a Location Based Marketing service. russell at mobhappy dot com.
But if there’s something else happening in Bluewater, I’d be interested in finding out.
