PR Companies Who Spam Bloggers
Matt Haughey is right--the only way bloggers can stop constant press releases is to simply filter messages based on a company's domain name.
In the spirit of sharing, here's a current list of PR companies who have sent me unsolicited (and almost always irrelevant) product pitches. Please add your own.

NOTE: This wiki was put together by Gina Trapani, editor of Lifehacker.com, who welcomes blog pitches to the tips at lifehacker.com email address, which exists for that purpose. She has also always respectfully requested that no press releases get sent to her personal email address in the one place where it is published online. The press releases, however, keep arriving. At her personal email address. Which is why she filters these companies.
