SpamNet: New spam filtering

For the past few hours I’ve been using Cloudmark’s new P2P based spam filter plug-in for Outlook and so far so good. In addition to my own simple home grown server-based phrase matching spam filter, I’ve only had one bogus message reach my inbox. If I factor out what my own spam filter nabbed, that’s roughly 1 spam out of 5. Not bad. However, given the P2P roots of Coundmark’s spam filter, I can only imagine that it’ll get better and better as more people use the system. So, start using it!

Interview with eRoom CEO

Short, but interesting interview with eRoom CEO Jeffrey Beir …

Some quotes: “Beir: A proprietary, fat-client, peer-to-peer, replicated, $49-a-client strategy is not a modern strategy. It’s a very ’90s strategy. Let’s step back to the business problem. A team of people needs to come together rapidly to collaborate on a mission-critical project. There’s rich content, and there are lots of applications. That dictates an architecture that must work very easily across enterprises; it needs to be agnostic about the platform; it needs to be thin-client so it’s easy to deploy; it needs to be enterprise-scalable and 24-by-7.”
