I’ve had a recent rash of trackback spam, so I am considering turning the trackback feature off. In the last seven months, only spammers have used it anyway. However, I have installed a spam baysian filter that I want to play with and test before I just give up. So, if you see spam links, please know that I am watching, training my filter, and actively fighting them. Hopefully the new toy will work and I won’t have to remove the trackback feature…although I notice the plugin author has done so.

On the positive side, if this works well, I will remove the captcha requirement from posting, even though I wrote all the questions myself and think they are rather amusing.
