I’m receiving less spam from Myspace and more from YouTube MatchActivity and HeyLetsgo. More spam means the site is getting popular, which is both good and bad.

Could you give us a rundown of what you consider spam from social networking sites like these?

I should have been more clear. In this case I was talking about spam originating from members, not the service itself, although many are accused of badgering members with overzealous use of “come back” emails. Most of the spam on YouTube for example is from webcam girls, the Nigerians haven’t found it yet, although it’s only a matter of time.
