Comments!
So I have comments on my blog now. Thanks y’all. When I set wordpress up, I told it to let me screen all of the comments first and set it up to email me when I got new comments. Turns out there was a little miscommunication. I was waiting for the emails to come in and wordpress was waiting for me to approve the comments so it could email me (you know, to let me know that I just approved a comment). In the process, I discovered what people mean by comment spam. I approved the six posts from people I know and marked the 160 junk comments. Blech.

Jeremy, I just login to my site from time to time to see if I have comments. Also, feel free to activate the Akismet plug-in. The folks at WordPress will manage almost all the spam for you. Just so you know, Akismet has caught 5,851 spam comments on my site. ;-)

Just set up Akismet. Let’s see what it can do.
