Bacn, Email That Is Not Spam or Personal Email

Last weekend at PodCamp Pittsburgh 2 a new internet term was coined, “Bacn”. Bacn is email that is not spam and or personal email, but something in-between. Examples might include social network invites, newsletters, billing notices and so on. To help fight the dangers of Bacn and spread general awareness of this crisis, check out the Bacn community blog and Bacn on Twitter.
