ramblings, rants and red pills
In a recent post, I mentioned my discovery of LiveDictionary. Today, I found a new — and funny — use for it: SpamDictionary.
Mike Ash, the developer, points out that one can add any Cocoa App to the “LiveDictionary enabled” Applications, including, but not limited, to Mail.app.
Equipped with this live facilty, I attacked my Spam folder and had a look a all these flabbergasting words our dear friends from the SpamFront use to mask their, well, interesting offers.
I actually found out that these mails are rather educating, in the sense that I learn lots of new, sophisticated expressions — something of great interest for a non-native speaker of the english language.
I am sure I soon will see an accretion of my english vocabulary, but I fear that my posts will be kinda arty very soon
.
Oh, and “SpamDictionary” is kind of a coinage, ain’t it?
This is my electronic home with lots of different stuff about Mac's, the Life, Blogs, Quotes and more.
