I got fed up with the comment spam I get on my blog. I googled a bit and found a few solutions, but ended up with a plugin that adds CAPTCHA to the comment form.This little gem can be downloaded from here.
It is fun to observe the spammer-scripts bang their virtual heads against this simple little tool. I can observe all the spam attempts in my website log. 
After spending most the afternoon coding php scripts for a new website, I decided to just stick with WordPress afterall. There are many things I don’t like about it, but I managed to find plugins for the stuff I was missing. Not to mention the animated Tag Cloud I saw the other day. Looks fancy, just need more, uhm, tags…
The current theme is fine too, spent a lot of time yesterday cleaning it up. It had several bugs. I also modified a lot of the code. I may just replace the banner (have a few made) and change the colors too, at which point there won’t be much left of the original theme. I have kept the link to it on the footer tho, but removed the ads.
Tweaking is half the fun of a website!
