Sadly, Word Verification is Back

Posted on 01:16 by Unknown
Google Captcha When I wrote about commenting on Blogger last month (Why does commenting suck?), one outcome of the discussion was that the Blogger Word verification (captcha) system causes people problems, so I turned it off.

Sadly, after a one month trial, there is just too much spam on Blogger, and the spam system doesn't catch enough of it (unlike Akismet on Wordpress), so sadly the captcha is back here.

Sorry.
