SpamLookUp

For the technically minded:

I’ve installed Brad Choate’s SpamLookup plug in for Movable Type. I’m running it alongside MTBlacklist to try to keep comment and trackback spam at bay. I’ve just tweaked Blacklist as per this forum comment to get them to behave properly together. Thanks to all these clever people for their efforts.

It looks like SpamLookup is keeping a lot of spam trackbacks away which is great.

While I’ve been fiddling you may have had some problems tracking back here. It looks at though SpamLookup filters out legit HaloScan trackbacks but I’m not sure. Sorry about that.

Spam comments and the power of community

I’ve just started to suffer from Spam comments the latest effort by these wretches to publicise their sites. They basically post fatuous comments to weblogs

Google translates compliments well… but strangles a lot of stuff!

At the NGO conference (blogged yeserday and the day before) I met Martin Roell a German blogger and e-business guru. He’s blogged the event in

SharpReader

I’ve finally started paying attention to RSS and all this stuff about “Blog Aggregators”. The final shove was wanting to get Martin Roell’s English feed.
