Well, it’s finally happened. I’m back from vacation for a few days (going back tomorrow ), and I’ve discovered that comment spammers have found my web site. Took them long enough though.
So I’ve decided to turn on user registration for comments. I’ll see how long it takes for the spammers to figure that out. If and when they do, I think I’ll implement the same technique used to protect my e-mail address. As far as I know, it hasn’t been beaten yet by any spam bot.

Of course, you can still use your OpenID.
Update (September 19th, 2007)
And commenting no longer requires registration. I’ve finally seen the light and installed Akismet.
