Helping You Comment

Website

One or two of you have been telling me that sometimes your comments get treated like spam. Since I get hundreds of spam comments a day, it’s very hard for me to go through the spam everyday to see whether a sensible comment got waylaid.

To help fix this I’ve introduced a new feature. The blog will now ask you to add some captcha code at the bottom of the comment in order to validate that you are actually human. This should mean that everybody’s comments are now accepted.

Hopefully this will mean I will capture all the comments that I’m currently losing.

    As if your blog (RSS, avatars, church calendar, election countdown, embedded video comments) wasn’t geekily fancy enough! ;-)

    Thanks, Peter – that’s very nice (and technically savvy!) of you. :-)
