You can't even gaze into a crystal ball without seeing a bunch of spam. One professor says that so-called "smart appliances," like fridges with Internet access, are the great spam monkeys of the future and will be the next generation of inbox cloggers. Wired appliances will be able to e-mail you and tell you that you're out of milk or that you need a new part for your dying air conditioner. That sounds convenient, but the professor says you're gonna wake up and smell a lot more spam -- and it may stink.
