I just signed up for Apple’s new “Ping” social networking service through iTunes (profile here). I followed a few artists that I like and when I started looking through it all I see is comment spam! Every single comment is some ridiculous pitch for a free iPhone. This is so lame! You would think that a company as large as Apple would have had the foresight to prevent comment spam. I am officially going to give Ping exactly 3 days to get straightened out, after that I am done if they don’t fix this.
