Blog spam

Well, tiny dog has finally been found by the blog spambots after a delightful 5 months under the radar. Due to this sorry development, I have had to activate a word verification thing whereby you have to type a word you see into a box thing before you leave a comment, so that Blogger knows you are a real human and not botscum.

Hope this isn't too annoying. If I ever meet a spammer, I will sever his gonads.

Thanks to my intrepid word verification tester, "Mr. Anonymous," whose name is Chris.

i've heard that spambots also search webpages for key words like @ and mailto:, then spam the email address provided. that is why i don't list my email address.

the main problem i have with word verification is that most of the time, the words are either overlapping or so hard to read that it takes three tries just to post a comment (or do whatever it is that i'm doing).
