Rage Against The Routine

Time Flies

October 23rd, 2007 · 1 Comment

Wow, I haven’t posted anything in five days! Work has been utterly crazy, and I’ve been working 15 hour days trying to meet a deadline.

But now CTIA has started and we’re in “don’t break anything” mode. I’m actually going to leave work before 6pm today, which is pretty great and seems like hardly working at all!

I added a cool new CAPTCHA system to the blog, because I’m tired of getting Vi*gr* spam in the comments. Somehow I made it onto the spammers lists and I’ve been getting 3 or 4 a day, they go into the moderation queue so no one sees them but it annoys me. So I added the ReCaptcha plugin to WordPress, which asks people to type a couple of words before the comment gets submitted. It’s cool because one of the words each time is a word that an OCR program was unable to read, so it sort of hijacks commenters into being human OCR coprocessors. Anyway, it’s nifty, try it out below and tell me how cool it is.
