Is spamming webmasters to promote a program ok?

[Hooper]

I have no problem mailing a new program announcment.. or receiving them. In fact since I am a full time webmaster, it's the only kind of spam i respond to.

I could deal with a few less nigerian scams and mortgage offers.. and i could REALLY use a lot fewer webmaster news bulletins... i have unfortunately had to add friends of mine to filter lists cause they think 2-3 "update" emails a week is ok... once or twice a month is good imho... or more frequently if something really special and new comes out... i bitch about those things..........

but send me your new program info any day! I like to see whats coming and whats new

I do recall one company, gtxcash though that went overboard.. they were mailing huge webmaster lists daily. really pissed off a lot of people.

PS.. I'll likely be spamming YOUR inbox (whoever you the reader may be) soon with an unsolicited commercial bulk email promoting our new programs. If you dont like it. Feel free to bash me here or elsewhere. I can take it
