Blog Spam

I guess a new type of spam has originated. Blog spam. If you get an anonymous comment posted for one of your blogs...it's most likely some kind of annoying spam.
Trevor has some ideas to counter act spam. He proposed an idea of having a little hidden tag on a blog page. This tag would signify to spammers and their bots to not post spam on the site. If so then they are liable to be prosecuted. It's a similar idea with the DO NOT CALL list with telemarketers. If a telemarketer calls the second time after you have asked to take your number of the list, you'd have a right to prosecute. I don't know the fine details but it's the same idea.

Sweet! I'm attracting spam!
I should start charging a fee to post advertisement on my page.

I just got the longest spam message EVER. I'm just waiting for the Viagra and homeowner people to come and find me. They know just what I need.
