If you get an email from something called Feed Share …
purporting to come from a friend, ignore it. It seems to be some sort of viral spam.

Teaches about the methods of policy analysis about drug abuse control and crime control policy, working out the implications of two principles: that swift and certain sanctions don't have to be severe to be effective, and that well-designed threats usually don't have to be carried out.

Thanks for this post. I got the email and did some investigating. They claim to have been recommended by Mozilla, yet in doing a search, it's obviously not the case.
Thanks. I got the email too and found it odd. I poked a bit and pretty soon it was asking me for my gmail log in information. "WHOA NELLIE!" sez I! I headed over to RBC and my suspicions were confirmed.
Thankfully, I dropped in here before checking my email, or it would have got me.
I got it too and was going to email you if you didn't post about it. But you did. Thanks.
this is a pretty goodSlate article on the general thing though it doesn't talk about Feed Share specifically.
i think what makes social spam effective is both the recognition but also the sense of obligation. i hate most web 2.0 stuff, but i always feel like i have to send an "it's not that i don't like you, it's just that i don't like the service" apology to people i know who ask me to join facebook or that kind of thing. it's funny how well crafted the message was to exploit feelings of solidarity, what with "Is Mark Kleiman your friend?" and "Please respond or Mark Kleiman may think you said no :("
it also seems like a truly horrible service even if you take it on face value. just about the last thing i would want is for all my friends/colleagues to know what websites i visit ad it's not even like i go to porn sites or anything like that.
Thanks for the link, gabriel r, and I take your point — I would feel a bit sheepish if some of my contacts discovered what a big Green Day fan I've become!
When I read the original Feed Share message, I did think the “Please respond or Mark Kleiman may think you said no 🙁 ” was a bit much, a nudge too far if you will.
Asal mula web Judi Poker Online Mengelokkan dipercaya di Dunia.
Dari segi buku Foster’ s Complete Hoyle, RF Foster menyelipkan “ Permainan situs pokerqq paling dipercaya dimainkan mula-mula di Amerika Serikat, lima kartu bikin masing masing pemain dari satu antaran kartu berisi 20 kartu”. Tetapi ada banyaknya ahli tarikh yg tidak setuju diantaranya David Parlett yg menguatkan jika permainan situs judi poker online paling dipercaya ini mirip seperti permainan kartu dari Persia yang dibawa oleh As-Nas. Kurang lebih sejahrawan menjelaskan nama produk ini diambil dari Poca Irlandi adalah Pron Pokah atau Pocket, tetapi masih menjadi abu-abu karena tidak dijumpai dengan pasti sapa yg menjelaskan permainan itu menjadi permainan poker.
Walau ada sisi per judian dalam semua tipe permainan ini, banyak pakar menjelaskan lebih jelas berkaitan gimana situs judi poker mampu menjadi game taruhan yang disenangi beberapa orang dalam Amerika Serikat. Itu berjalan bertepatan dengan munculnya betting di daerah sungai Mississippi dan daerah sekelilingnya pada tahun 1700 an serta 1800 an. Pada saat itu mungkin serius tampil terdapatnya keserupaan antara poker masa lalu dengan modern poker online tidak hanya pada trick berspekulasi tetapi sampai ke pikiran di tempat. Mungkin ini lah cikal akan munculnya permainan poker modern yg kalian ketahui sampai saat tersebut.
Riwayat awal timbulnya situs judi poker paling dipercaya Di dalam graha judi, salon sampai kapal-kapal yg siapkan arena betting yg ada didaerah setengah Mississippi, mereka terkadang bermain cukup hanya manfaatkan 1 dek yg beberapa 20 kartu (seperti permainan as-nas). Game itu terkadang dimainkan langsung tidak dengan diundi, langsung menang, punya putaran taruhan, dapat meningkatkan perhitungan taruhan seperi game as-nas.
Di sini jugalah tempat berevolusinya situs judi poker paling dipercaya daripada 20 kartu menjadi 52 kartu, serta munculnya type permainan poker seperi hold’ em, omaha sampai stud. Herannya orang melihat bila poker stud jadi poker pertama dan classic yang telah dimainkan lebih daripada 200 tahun.
Diakhir tahun 1800 an sajian Poker Online mulai disematkan lagi ketentuan baru diantaranya straight dan flush serta beberapa type tipe yang lain lain seperti tipe poker low ball, wild cards, community cards of one mode dan lainnya.
