Just in case anyone reading this is not fully aware that the original context of the word SPAM is the brand name of a canned meat that was made popular during the second World War when there were shortages and rationing of many items across the country.
In any event, it is still sold on supermarket shelves today...I just don't know why.
Well, in any case I am in the midst of studying for my ePro designation and we are in the midst of a lesson on email. Whenever email and marketing are being discussed together, the topic will turn to SPAM as it is now commonly known in the 21st century,
What I find interesting is that the term was first coined in marketing as a result of a Monty Python skit. You have to enjoy British humor - it is not exactly the type of stuff we watch everyday here in the states - but it is funny, non the less.
OK, stop laughing and get back to work now...
