I’ve not been blogging much lately. Well, I haven’t been adding entries to the blog as such. Instead I’ve been dealing with lots and lots of comment spam on comments to my entries, and that has taken the fun out of blogging for a while :-(

((Comment spam is a bunch of comments left in a weblog that are put there to advertise something or raise some site’s google rank. Comment spamming is disrespectful and unfriendly.))

Now I’ve made some changes to the blog, including adding the MT-Blacklist plugin, so the evil spammers and their vile robots will have to try harder to get spam comments into the blog and it is much easier for me to go through and delete them.

So now blogging is fun again. Huge respect to the kind people that have worked out the changes to make to Movable Type and have made plugins like MT-Blacklist. You folk are great.
