Scott Adams, of Dilbert fame, foolishly wrote an article today asking all of his users to spam his Blackberry 8700. He signed up for Google alerts based off of the keywords “Scott Adams Dilbert”, and Scott Adams expects to receive email or SMS alerts directly on his Blackberry, especially when his wife is scrolling through the DVR’s menus. With a target audience of technical geeks, Scott Adams Dilbert is really asking to get abused.
Now the more interesting part is predicting Scott Adams’ (Dilbert) response. I predict his first response will be to claim that each of the meat bags that help to spam his mobile phone and assist him in not choosing something to watch on his DVR, are just demonstrating their lack of free will.
Secondly, I will not be surprised to find that Scott Adams (Dilbert) only hypothetically has this Google Alert service enabled. It could be just another “thought experiment”, as he is so fond of doing. I partially believe this because of his URL path–it is “too_frickin_coo”, not cool as his post slug suggests. His wetware is too well lubricated to have not thought through this possibility.
Lastly I predict that Scott Adams (Dilbert) will be very amused by whatever happens.
