I was browsing the bugmenot.com website and came across another nifty tool in the war against pointless sign ups:

Mailinator

Basically, whenever you have to sign up with an email address, just list someaddress@mailinator.com

You can then check the email for that address on mailinator's site. Messages are kept for a few hours.

:edit:
Some other sites that offer the same service:
http://www.dodgeit.com
http://www.spamgourmet.com
http://spambob.com

Yeah, I use mailinator all the time. It works for anything that doesn't require you to actually reply to the email.

Unfortunately, its usefulness drops as it becomes more popular (because eventually, websites will start to disallow it as an email domain). So stop spreading the word!

Please disregard my previous post. Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along.
