We are all familiar with the term spam. It has become so common that even people who do not use computers are familiar with the term spam. The word is a part of our everyday vocabulary that we speak in person.

But as the word spam e-mail you referring to? There are two camps of thought on this issue. The classic version of the story comes from the classic Monty Python spam sketch, when a couple enters the restaurantand get a menu that has nothing but the canned meat Spam in itself. In this design, the spam word is repeated, almost 200 times. The same word over and over again brought in a sketch of a man, on the basis of hundreds of the same e-mail on the same subject is referred to as spam.

The second explanation came from a man called Jim, who told me the story of the following:

"It would be back in BBS (Bulletin Board System) days with the new high-speed modem V32 2400-baudvery long time to make a program or download an image from your BBS. This was similar to that USENET is now to upload and a few others can download.

Uploader This campaign for his contribution, like pictures of naked women. After half an hour down and put all the pieces together the picture turned out a picture of a can of SPAM. Where are the naked women and one hours of my time? People have responded to the messages and wrote SPAM. I know we did not know, D / L thatPicture. USENET has kicked off after putting the term means something wrong – not downloaded (or believe) this. The jump launched UBE (Unsolicited Bulk Email) or UCE (Unsolicited Commercial Email) SPAM was a natural evolution of the word. "

Decide for yourself, the emergence of this theory is right for you. The principle is the same. The term spam is the fact that the same useless information is sent over and over again, is the pretext that it is deriveduseful.
