Insidious

I’ve about had it with comments/trackback. You won’t see this, because I moderate now, but we got bombed with spam comments and trackback again this weekend. The annoyance is that there were real comments and trackbacks too, so I had to at least scan hundreds of emails to separate wheat from chaff.

(And yes, I know there are things I could do to force verification, but none of them work very well and it’s a waste of energy when I intend to move this blog into our publishing system in a few weeks.)

I guess I should be flattered that we get enough traffic to warrant. We’ve even become a target for splogs of late.

has an eeevill thought about how to capitalize on splogging.

I could make mad bank on "Citizen" Watches and Barbie and the magic of "Pegasus."
