iPhone: the domain name and SEO parasites are coming

I have seldom been as sure of something as what I am about to tell you now.

You can bet various species of sleazebags are going to milk this IPhone craze for all its worth.

We're already starting to see the following, and I guarantee you sure as my name is Russell Shaw that the next 10 days are going to bring a flood of:

Domain name speculators who will try to sell you URLs that incorporate various spellings and punctuations of iPhone. Don't believe me? It's already started on eBay.

Spammers and phishers who will send you "free iPhone" emails that when you read them, will somehow, magically morph into stock touts and, um, "male performance" solutions;

We're also going to see epidemics of iPhone metatagging and copy-engineering by Search Engine Optimization sharpies. I am totally convinced of this.

Stick with us, folks. Unlike what some people think when it comes to iPhone we have no agenda. That'd be no Apple-hating agenda, domain-name sales agenda, SEO schema.
