Spam, the scourge of the Internet, is celebrating its 30th birthday. According to tech historians, the first spam message was sent by a marketing executive of a computer firm on May 1978 to users of Arpanet, an earlier form of the Internet. The spam was relatively innocent and welcomed the users to the showroom to see the firm’s new range of computers. Though spam is over 30 years old, it was given its name only 15 years ago by Joel Furr, an administrator of Usenet, to refer to unsolicited bulk messages. At present, spam is pervasive danger for Net users. It is believed that about 90 percent of all emails are spam.

For last FOSSMeet@NITC, I had gone with Pramode Sir. It was a great experience for me. You can see there lot of free and open minded people . They are ready to share their knowledge. Moreover they believe that one day open source softwares can dominate over proprietary sofwares and can establish a free software , free knowledge culture . If you go just with thirst of knowledge, it will be a greatful experience to you... I am guaranty. I can't go for FOSSMeet@NITC 2008 http://fossmeet.in/ this year . You can here lot of technical talks as well as open source philosophy.Surely ,you can ask how can I contribute to Open softwares .
