Another tip is on a blog or forum (or any webpage for that fact) never openly type your email address etc. Always try and substitute the symbols for example:

myname (\at/) hotmail (/dot\) com

You want to try and make it as hard for spam bots to pick up on as possible.

Very true and I think we should all start mixing it up a bit with the symbols cuz I know I've seen [dot] or {at} for years now! lol
