"Welcome to LiveJournal" spam / dietpharmacyeat.com

This "LiveJournal" spam actually leads to a fake pharma site, but it could be adapted easily to deliver malware:

"MediaWiki Mail" Spam / carewelhealth.com

A novel spam, in this case leading to a fake pharmacy on carewelhealth.com.. but it could just as easily be malware.

Date:      Sun, 22 Apr 2012 16:09:12 +0000
From:      MediaWiki Mail [wiki@wikimedia.org]
Subject:      Account details on Wikipedia

Wikipedia

Someone (probably you, from IP address 105.191.258.285) requested a reminder of your account details for Wikipedia. The following user account is associated with this e-mail address: xxxxxxxxxxx

This reminder will expire in 7 days.
If you didn't initiate the request on Wikipedia, feel free to cancel this message and uncheck the "Reminder" checkbox in your account.

Thanks, and once again Welcome!

Of course, the IP address of 105.191.258.285 is invalid, but most people probably won't be looking too closely. Keep an eye out for this type of spam. it might well lead to something nastier than a fake Viagra merchant.

New Blogger interface: It's all too horrible to contemplate.

If you use Blogger, you'll know that it has a new interface. It's horrible. OK, the old interface was horrible but usable at the same time. This is just horrible, with the familiar looking elements seeming sprinkled at random over the new interface.

There are a lot of companies at the moment doing a similar thing.. making over their tried and tested (but tired) old software interfaces and coming up with something pastel-ly and awful. Or perhaps I'm just a Luddite?

Update: you can share your feedback on the Blogger forum which is full of similar complaints.

There are three hyperlinks in the message, two of them are to LinkedIn and one of them is to a fake pharma site on mysalepharmacy.com on 178.19.108.195 in Poland.

Personally, I hate LinkedIn emails. Blocking everything that appears to be from linkedin.com will not have any adverse impact on your life.
