Bottle Blog

new to blogging….and now blog spam

So, you want to have your own blog? Just set it up and start writing? Sure, just wait till you get hammered with comment spam. My first spam comment hit less than an hour after going live.

Fortunately, I have installed Three Strikes, a plugin for WP which I am pleased to say has, for its first four days of operation, solved the problem. WP is great if you are willing to spend a bit of time to finetune the installation


bottleauctions.com goes live

The web site went live as of November 4th. At this point, it is pretty darn basic, but I am continuing to refine the layout and the scope.
