I finally got sick of wading through spam comments so I thought it’d give it a whirl. It’s a plugin that’s suggested by WordPress and it’s free so I figured why not? At first I thought it wasn’t working because a few spam comments slipped through but now it’s working brilliantly. Just deleted 25 spam comments in one go. And I’m not getting the emails that come along with bastards trawling my blog. Hoorah!
Who Killed Amanda Palmer?
I’m not a huge Dresden Dolls fan but I’m totally infatuated with Amanda Palmer’s first solo album. I read Neil Gaiman’s blog and he mentioned Ms Palmer several times, enough that I got interested. He’s writing the text for a book of photos she’s putting out that ties in with the album and I think I may just have to get it. Words can’t express how much I love this album. She’s a brilliant piano player and her voice is wonderful. Plus I recently discovered there’s a video for my favourite song, Ampersand (it’s the third one down).
