When LanguageLog reported on the linguistic issues arising out of the French Nabaztag craze, I thought I should be in on it. So I got one. I called it, rather unimaginatively, “duckrabbit“.

I can also report, in response to a question by Mark Liberman in that post, that if random messages from people I don’t know count as nabspam, then yes, the first piece of nabspam has certainly been transmited. But it’s kinda nice to get random messages from random people once in a while.
