Some of Alan's views on this digital marketing malarkey ... there's more on: AlanCharlesworth.com

Over the years – as you can see – I’ve added to this blog only sporadically. I decided to leave all the old posts ‘live’ as I think they can still be useful in helping folk understand digital marketing. Enjoy 😊

captchas you can't read ...

... include this one from ebay:
Can you tell me what the first and/or second characters are?
In case you weren't sure, here's a definition of 'captcha':

CAPTCHA (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart)   A security device that requires human input rather and so prevents any kind of automated access to protected areas of a network. The most common online application is that of active tokens.   

Note that this is from my book, Key Concepts in e-Commerce.
