How random…

Posted on January 8, 2007 By admin 2 Comments on How random…

Once in a while, I get random anonymous comments on my blog. Most of those are spam, but occasionally, they're random enough to make me wonder if they're real or not. Case and point, one I received today:


Hi.

Nice site design. Okay, I need your help.
So, I wanna make online-store, and I am looking for site template.
Can you advice some online store or other resource where I can find many site templates?

It would be better if it will be free:)
I think many of us have personal sites, do you design it yourself?

Thanks a lot, Bill.


Now, see, Bill is not a native English speaker, which explains the atrocious grammar. That's fine, he's posting from an IP in Estonia. What's completely useless about this post though is that he doesn't leave me any way to get back to him with answers to his question. So I won't.

What really confuses me though, is that the comment was posted to an entry I wrote weeks ago, which makes me believe it's spam. However, there's no link he's asking me to visit, and he's not trying to sell me anything.

This means that if Bill is a spammer, he's really not that bright. If he's real, he should get a proof-reader and leave a business card.
