Comment Spam Follow Up
Well, I did a bit of searching and tinkering after Todd had recommended using the Akismet API to combat comment spam in my original post. I got a bit sidetracked though- I thought about CAPTCHAs and switching plugins, I reviewed WordPress quickly (you need a WP key to use the Akismet API) and even thought about switching platforms because I thought WP was quite nice. But I decided to give Kevin Scaldeferri's Writeback/Akismet plugin for Blosxom a whirl. I'll leave the comments open for a week or so to see how it goes. If not, I'll think about using something else. 14 May 13:34 | /tech | 3 comment(s)
