Spam-a-lot
Many of you might have seen David Rothman’s post on spam comments getting through the filter. We do run the Akismet spam filter, but there is still spam that gets by the system. I try to keep a close watch on this and clear out the junk, but apparently this still goes out to the feed readers.
Today I added the reCAPTCHA plugin which requires a user type in the squiggly word they see in the box. Most people have probably seen this type of authentication. I’ll monitor the effectiveness of this and revisit if spam is still getting by.
Thanks for you patience.
