Adding My Web Links and Fighting Spam 2
I’ve added My Web Links to the right column of the blog. I know, My Web is probably the most un-hip social bookmark solution on the planet, but I like the way it integrates in with my my Yahoo search results, and I’m still far too lazy to switch to dei.cio.us. Besides, it works.
I also have observed that the spammers of the world have discovered this site. Joy.
I’m hoping it works a bit like graffitti: if you are aggressive enough in removing it, they decide their efforts are better spent elsewhere (as a public service, people should setup up blogs that do nothing but collect blog spam ;-). I will be setting up Akismet this evening in order to avoid waking up to thirty odd comments that need deleting.
