del.icio.us and feeds

It's been a while, so I feel like I should post something. I've been using del.icio.us a bit more lately, so I modified my feedburner feed to only send out one link post per day.

I want to put together something about how crazy the whole paid blogging thing is, but I don't really have a full post in me. The Daring Fireball membership info boggles my mind - if someone wants to pay me to post more, I'd be happy to do so. I really do enjoy his site and the content, but wow - that's a lot of people and big chunk of money.

The Joys of Comment Spam

Up until a month ago, I had never gotten any comment spam on my blogger account.... and then it began (insert ominous music)

I got two on a post and thought it was kind of cute - "oh this is what everyone posts about...". And then on October 1st, I started getting all kinds of 'comments' about how great my posts were, how I should check out some other fancy site, etc.

So tonight as I was going to delete some of the posts, I saw the information about blogger's new "word verification" and turned it on for the blog. It means that you get to type a few extra characters before posting a comment, and we'll see how well this works on my new internet fans.
