Is it possible to locate a man, given only his photograph and first name?

A UK games company is testing the power of the Internet by asking that very question; they have recruited one of Earth’s 6 billion residents – a man named Satoshi – to participate in this experiment.

We are each only five to seven people away from any target in the world. Someone, somewhere, knows Satoshi – so we must track these people, and thus Satoshi, down using word-of-mouth communication. People from over 40 countries are already participating in the hunt, with more joining every day.

Spam on the rise?

Wow, I have been seeing a lot more “unique” spam that has been making its way to my Hotmail inbox. These offers all seem to be offering gift cards, prizes, or something other item for people who go to their site. Usually Hotmail has pretty good spam filters, I wonder why they are getting through.
