Yesterday my contacts received an email from my email address, promoting a web site. This email was not sent by me, and I immediately started to look for the source. I have to admit that my journalistic tendency made me hope that I was a victim to a Mac virus. However, after a thorough review, I found that Gmail was the source of the problem. I took the required measures, including removing my contacts from online services, in order to prevent this event from happening again.

I apologize to all my contacts for the inconvenience. This case is a certainly a reminder why online services are not necessarily a better future...
