Something weird – don’t mention the title of the book.

My last post, published less than an hour ago, mentioned the name of the book about the wizard that is going to be published on Saturday. Because the whole name was mentioned, a program found my blog and as a comment on the entry sent me what purported to be a picture of the final page of the book. I am hoping that it is a scam. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to Spoil the end for people.  I have NOT approved that comment.

I tracked back from the comment to find a page that lists every blog that mentions the title. This list now includes entries on blogs by some very, very angry people.

 Well, I’m just not going to mention the name of the book or anyone in it until after Saturday. Be careful if you blog.

  1. Oh, I’m so sorry! I wasn’t aware of the program, but I know that there’s been a spoiler troll on LiveJournal annoying people quite a bit. And I’d meant to warn you…

  2. From my experience, it’s also wise not to mention ‘breastmilk’ on your blog, if you can possibly avoid it, as it seems to send the porn spammers into overdrive. Grrrr.
