Anti-Spam Company Hires PR Company. PR Co. Spams Press

D'oh!

Sometimes you wonder if people actually think about what they're doing before they click send on an email.  NetworkWorld is reporting on one PR firm that doesn't appear to have any clue about the companies it represents. 

Rocket Science, a PR company serving Singlefin, a provider of email, IM and web filtering for places like Juno and NetZero, decided to drum up some publicity and sent emails to eleven different staffers at NetworkWorld, instead of sending it to their spam or security writers.  Oh, and they also spammed several people who no longer work for NetworkWorld at all.

Read on for all of the other screw-ups that make this so incredibly amusing.

Geez, it's not exactly rocket science.

No wait, actually, it is.
