Bulk mail broadly refers to mail that is mailed and processed in bulk at reduced rates.
 The term does not denote any particular purpose for the mail, but is sometimes used (incorrectly) as a synonym for "junk mail".
Ghost Publishing is an anonymous publishing movement.
 The basic philosophy of the movement is in part derivative of the new criticism of the early part of the twentieth century.
 The new criticism held that a work should be treated as though it were contemporary and anonymous whether it was a text by Tacitus or Hemingway.
 The Ghost Publishers take the belief one step further and hold that works of literature are most powerful when they are anonymous.
 Most texts that have come out of this movement are photocopied booklets that are distributed through one of three typical methods: the drop-off, blind mail, and piggy-backing.
 The most common is the drop-off whereby the writer simply prints his texts and drops them someplace where they are likely to be found, such as a park or a city bus.
 Blind mail is held by some to be a better method since the likelihood of being delivered is higher than in the drop-off, but some feel that most blind mail deliveries are discarded as though they were junk mail.
 Some also feel that blind mailing to unknown recipients runs the risk of appearing menacing to some recipients.
 Piggy-backing is the most controversial delivery method since there is some question as to its legality at least in some jurisdictions.
 Piggy-backing involves placing anonymous texts inside product packaging without the knowledge or approval of the manufacturer.
 Some popular items to piggy-back are cases of soft drinks, shoe boxes, and the inside pockets of sport coats.
Junk Mail Digital Media is South Africa's leading publisher in the classified advertising industry, publishing a number of classified related titles through varying media including World Wide Web, mobile Web, SMS, and Print.
The microcomputer revolution (or personal computer revolution or digital revolution) is a phrase used to describe the rapid advances of microprocessor-based computers from esoteric hobby projects to a commonplace fixture of homes in industrial societies during the 1970s and 1980s.
 Prior to 1977, the only contact most of the population had with computers was through utility bills, bank and payroll services, or computer-generated junk mail.
 Within a decade, computers became common consumer goods.
Junk Mail is a 1995 book by Will Self published by Bloomsbury Publishing.
 It features pieces of writing centred on drugs and the counter-culture, taken from writing in British newspapers such as "The Guardian", "The Observer" and "The Independent".
 It incorporates a wide range of writing, such as an article on drug dealers in the East End of London called "New Crack City", reflections on the nature of slacking, travel essays on whirling dervishes in Turkey as well as life in Israel and Ulster, and a script of sorts for a rock video by the group Massive Attack.
 It also includes dialogues with Martin Amis, J. G. Ballard and William Burroughs and profiles on Thomas Szasz, Damien Hirst, Tim Willocks and Bret Easton Ellis.
Junk faxes are a form of telemarketing where unsolicited advertisements are sent via fax transmission.
 Junk faxes are the faxed equivalent of spam or junk mail.
 Proponents of this advertising medium often use the terms "broadcast fax" or "fax advertising" to avoid the negative connotation of the term "junk fax".
William Woodard Self (born 26 September 1961) is an English novelist, journalist, political commentator and television personality.
Advertising mail, also known as direct mail (by its senders), junk mail (by its recipients), mailshot or admail, is the delivery of advertising material to recipients of postal mail.
 The delivery of advertising mail forms a large and growing service for many postal services, and direct-mail marketing forms a significant portion of the direct marketing industry.
 Some organizations attempt to help people opt out of receiving advertising mail, in many cases motivated by a concern over its negative environmental impact.
The Poets' Encyclopedia is an English-language poetical anthology, covering the literary, art and music worlds of New York City in the 1970s.
 225 poets, artists, musicians and novelists transform the world's basic knowledge.
 Imagination trumps fact.
 John Cage writes on mushrooms, Richard Kostelanetz on gimmicks, Jackie Curtis on B-Girls, Pier Paolo Pasolini on reality, Daniel Berrigan on Israel, Allen Ginsberg on junk mail, Irene Dogmatic on junk food, John Chamberlain on junk sculpture, and William S. Burroughs on heroin.
 "The New York Times" said, it "includes Everything (page 82) and Nothing (page 196)."
 Unmuzzled OX, the publisher of "The Poets' Encyclopedia", attempted as a kind of sequel "The Poets' Guide to Canada".
 ("Unmuzzled OX" is edited in the summers from Kingston, Ontario.)
 Although George Bowering, Margaret Atwood, Sonja Skarstedt and other prominent Canadian poets wrote articles, the issue devolved into a jokey conversation between New Yorkers, pseudonymous New Yorkers, and the surrealist poet Russell Edson.
Hashcash is a proof-of-work system used to limit email spam and denial-of-service attacks, and more recently has become known for its use in bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies) as part of the mining algorithm.
 The original idea was first proposed by Cynthia Dwork and Moni Naor in their 1992 paper "Pricing via Processing or Combatting Junk Mail".
 Later a similar proposal called Hashcash was proposed in 1997 by Adam Back.
