Tim O'Reilly Mans the Spam Cannon Again
The first time that Tim O'Reilly spammed me, he was almost apologetic. I guess since I didn't bother to opt-out (I was afraid that perhaps that action might add me to another spam list), Tim felt that he didn't have to open with an apology.
I guess I should feel special that Tim has extended a "web2vipw" discount code. Oh so very special. I'm one of an elite group that happened to be in Tim's address book, to which he must have felt it would be proper to send unsolicited commercial email.
Bwahahahahha
I guess I'll never write a book for Tim. :)

Subject: VIP Web 2.0 Conference Savings Expire Soon -- Register Today!
Last month I emailed you about the Web 2.0 Conference -- The
Web as Platform, October 5-7 at the Hotel Nikko in San Francisco.
We've received an overwhelmingly positive response to the
Web 2.0 Conference from attendees, potential participants and
the press. There have been a significant number of requests
for invitations, and we will officially open conference
registration to the public later this week. Before we do this,
I wanted to give you another chance to reserve an early VIP
space. Register today with discount code "web2vipw" for savings
up to $700 on the full three-day conference with workshops
(or use discount code "web2vip" for two-day conference only):

The Web 2.0 Conference speaker roster has grown to include Marc
Andreessen, Chairman and Co-Founder of Opsware, Inc, Martin
Nisenholtz, CEO, New York Times Digital, and Lisa Gansky, Chair
and President, Ofoto, in addition to some of our already
confirmed industry leaders such as Marc Benioff, Jeff Bezos,
Mark Cuban, John Doerr, Mary Meeker and Kim Polese.
The three-day Web 2.0 Conference program offers a day of
workshops and two full days of plenary sessions. In the
workshops you'll learn how to leverage platform businesses
such as Amazon, eBay, Google and Salesforce, as well as how
to turn a proprietary business into a platform.

Your Business
* The Killer Map
* Can Media Be a Platform?
* The Search-Find-Obtain Economy

We've also expanded our workshops and plenary sessions to
explore the full spectrum of Internet industry issues, as seen
through the prism of the Web as Platform. Please visit us online
