The Daily Ping

The Ping is self-aware.

HVAC twitter spammers

I recently took a look at my Twitter followers and realized that in the last week, over 50 different HVAC companies from my state had started following me. Clearly, some douchebag “social media guru” is doing some work for HVAC companies in Virginia and part of his plan was to follow anyone that every mentioned Virginia on Twitter. I like having friends, but I don’t need 50 HVAC companies paying attention to what I have to say.

So I blocked them all.

You still use Twitter?

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
