Ok, I finally got the captcha working. Wasn’t that hard, but it was more the concept that was kind of eluding me… Where to send the data from the image and from the text box, how to compare them and so on.

I’m wondering if spammers would learn how to make their robots do that… Anyway, doesn’t matter because I haven’t had a single comment spam since I changed over from wordpress yesterday. Wait and see, I guess.

Since the release of Wordpress 1.5, I’ve been wondering what to do with this blog.I looked at upgrading, but that would mean a few days of work to have the blog the way I like it again. I hacked WP 1.2 so much that it would be very difficult to just upgrade and expect everything to go smoothly. Also I asked to myself: do I really need a blogging tool to do coffee as well as allow me to publish stuff easily. I guess I mean that Wordpress now has many more features than I have use for, and I do...
