Crow's Nest...

Ever since I changed the template for my blog I have been getting a lot of spam in my comments. I think by changing the template I somehow also changed the way comments are handled on the blog. This lead to spam spewing over the page. Spam is the bane of our existence on the internet. Emails are full of spam messages and there are whole folders dedicated to handling of spam. One of the reason I like Gmail is that it has really good customizable filters for filtering out spam.

Since I use the blogger service for the blog that I maintain I am a slave to the templates that blogger provides me with. I have changed the template once more to use the new features that blogger has provided me with. This one looks pleasing to the eye and I really like it. I had grown used to the previous template and this is a welcome change for me and for this blog.
