Blog Spam!

Although I have only told a handful of people re: this website, I’m getting hammered with blog spam. The comments have been flooded with spambot attacks for free poker online, viagra, etc..

Anyway, the double submit (preview first, then post second) in the comments form may hopeful deter these bots.

If it doesn’t I’ll have to revert to some challenge/response system.. the challenge being some simple word problem that only a human could answer.. like:

What is one plus one minus two? Answer: zero or 0
Type patrick spelled backwards. Answer kcirtap
What is the name of our planet? Answer: earth
…

If you have any questions like these or know of a site that may have such questions, please commment and I’ll compile a list of these questions to hopefully deter these nasty spambots.
