If There Were A God, It Would Be Jay Allen
He invented MT Blacklist, the anti-spam software now in use on this blog. Before we got the new version installed, which involved my leaving my server company for another, I was spending an hour a day deleting spam. Now, spam me once, and you're blocked from posting your URL again. And the reporting process is very automated now -- pretty much does it for you. Check this out -- the number of comment spams blocked since the beginning of December!
Is anybody using the new beta version of Blacklist? Any reviews?







Wild. Between the time I posted this and now, comments spam blocked has gone up to 12889 (from 12590).
