Blog spam

Blogs 2004-08-30

A couple of hours ago my blog was spammed with lots of comments. They all got caught, so no worries, but what surprised me was that although they were clearly spamming for the same host, they came almost all from differen IP-adresses, radically different IP-adresses: 12.22.85.3
193.145.88.17, 193.165.223.2, 200.35.83.27
200.56.233.5, 202.125.129.138, 203.150.28.215, 203.169.115.134, 203.246.165.35, 206.163.199.1, 210.3.7.150, 210.4.143.254, 210.5.71.243, 212.47.27.186, 213.253.212.101, 61.19.243.11, 63.81.122.87, 64.19.80.100, 64.3.231.3, 65.112.88.98, 66.178.7.6, 66.192.31.98, 67.136.50.93, 80.53.138.10, 80.55.131.150, 80.58.20.235, 80.58.46.235, 80.84.154.70, 81.118.4.4.
Someone is having a bit more fun with distributed computing than they should.


Nicer Titles

Having seen Nicer Titles demonstrated at Binary Bonsai, I decided to incorporate it into my page. Don’t seem to work too well with Safari, though.

Rob Wilks is blogging in sign language


Hi. I came across del.icio.us in an Infoworld article, and figured: What if we make an RFC for categories. If we had a set of standardized categories people could choose to use, we could have blog indexes where we could subscribe on a category in a language as an rss feed and receive only interesting topics on that. An example of a category could be Music/Early Music/Renaissance, as opposed to Art/Renaissance/Vermeer. I’d love to receive blogging on Vermeer and Renaissance music without having to hunt these blogs down and add them to my RSS feed. :)
