The biggest problem was finding them. Maybe blogger is helping, maybe I'm just to obscure. Who knows. I’ve had one or two hits over the past month. The biggest problem was finding them.

I.e. no comment spam -- but also, very few comments (well, it's not like there's much to comment on in what I say...). I've found that people often email me instead, but that's no subsititute for public commentary. I don't know the best answer, but I deliberately shied away from the whole MT thing because of the comment spam...

So it will probably show up later and you'll have to delete my extra comment along with your day's allocation of spam. I posted “I never get any comment spam” and it didn’t show up.

But when I was on MovableType I was using MT-Blacklist and closing old comments after 30 days, and that worked pretty well. Since I moved to WordPress 1.5 last month, I haven't had a single comment spam. I installed SpamKarma, and it hasn't caught anything. I also checked the option that blocks comments from open relays, and as far as I know that doesn't actually tell you when it blocks stuff. SpamKarma for WordPress does everything that MT-Blacklist does (including the automatic updates), and a whole lot more. Try it, you'll like it. Can’t comment about Blogger.

It filters out most of the comment spam using the MT-Blacklist, which is automatically updated for me (a super nice feature given how busy I am). I recommend checking out the MT-Blacklist at http://www.jayallen.org/comment_spam/ and seeing if you can incorporate it into your blogger. Otherwise, check out Roller Weblogger. It's Java Servlet based and can connect to Postgresql or MySQL. I use Roller Weblogger.
