Plugging the comment spam inlet
I'm going to be working on the comment spam problem today. Attempt #1 is adding a Turing test to the comment form; you might not be able to comment while I'm debugging it. I'll update this post when it's all working.
UPDATE 2006-12-16: I've decided to host the project for attempt #1 at Google Code. It's called Negative Turing Test. You'll be able to get the fruits of my labor when it's done, and you can watch me work on it in the Subversion repo. (And yes, that means that I'm not debugging yet. You can still comment for now. ;)
