Twitter sp@m

Argh, I cannot avoid posting about this, it is so annoying. As some of you know, I'm on Twitter, but recently I have been getting followed by what looks like sp@mmers. Tell-tale signs, like names with 16xdvdmedia and its url links to a generic site with crap on it. At least there is a block option, but I wish Twitter will implement something to stop these people ruining another online tool. It's just like Reddit is going downhill as people are just posting digg-like or slashdotty stuff, and commenters are getting just as bad. It use to be so tecchie and nice folks are being pushed out. Now I'm reading Hacker News, just do a search for "Hacker News", and see what you think.
