Die, comment spammers
Recent comment spam on this site has gotten to be annoying, so I've taken a cue from Simon Willison (who's my new coworker) and set up a comment domain blacklist. Comments that contain a link to any of the blacklisted domains will not be posted.
As on Simon's site, you're welcome to grab my blacklist file once every 24 hours to use it as part of your own comment-spam prevention system.

Don't see any comments? That's because my Web hosting provider has made a server upgrade that broke the commenting feature on this site. I'm working to restore that; please check back later.
