Feed Description: A weblog about Python from the view point of Jarno Virtanen.
(This is really just an excuse, but) while I don't have anything
against commenting systems on weblogs, particularily on my own, things like
this make me a bit suspicious. (There are over 1000 spammer
comments in that entry. I informed the weblog's owner about this,
although I would guess that many others have done so already.) I
wonder how many semi-abandoned weblogs there are that have old entries
filled with spammers' links.
On a related note, I'm getting tired with email spam too. Although I
use spambayes which
classifies my mails pretty accurately, I still have to go through the
spam folder once in a while. (No spam filtering system can guarantee
that there will be no false positives.)
