today, in the matter of only an hour, this website got hit by spam comments. probably over a thousand.
if you don’t have this installed yet, and you run moveable type, i recommend you do. it filtered through my site and deleted over a thousand spam comments in a matter of minutes. this blacklist is maintained through community and you can update it yourself as needed. jay allen made it, and i highly recommend it. die, spammers.
this will be your bane.
