A little time off, thanks to bad behavior
This blog receives approximately 10,000 SPAM comments each month. Akismet’s ‘false positive’ rate is quite low, however I like to make sure that nothing in the queue is legit before nuking it. After this blog turned one year old, that task became insurmountable. Mostly, I thank Google for this pestilence. If a page has many [...]
A year of Echoreply

Echoreply has gone .geek
For those of you who use OpenNIC , this site can now be accessed via http://echoreply.geek For more information on why ICANN really means ICANT, read the RegisterFly story.
