Seems like I’ve fallen victim to comment spamming in this blog. Apparently 29 comments were posted from Sun, 26 Sep 2004 10:37:00 +0200 to Mon, 27 Sep 2004 11:36:43 +0200 all advertising stuff like online poker, diet pills and phentermine.

The comments have of course been removed and I’m now trying to think out an effective way to sort out that sort of crap. IP banning seems like the obvious solution, but then again, when does the same spammer strike twice from the same IP? Then I’m thinking of some way to route the comments through SpamAssassin before letting them through, but that’s a very abstract idea, since I have no clue whether or not this is at all possible.

Seeing how long it took me to notice this, you are encouraged to mail me if you encounter anything like this on this site, so I can get it removed and perhaps banned. Thank you.

Got the last couple of weeks recordings mixed down, and here it is: madsen_2004-10-10.ogg (2:25 – 461 kb).

Featuring:

• a couple of doors
• a McDonalds paper bag
• some of my family (talking in the background when we moved for our mom)
• my ukulele
• a power drill
• … and more

Regarding the picture. It’s not because I’ve begun wearing glasses (even though I ought to), I just tried my oldest niece’s glasses on and I thought I looked like a nice guy wearing them – and now you can think that too.

I realized that it was a long time ago since I last ran my download statistics script, so I gave it a whack – and what do you know? The number of downloads just keep increasing!

At this rate I’ll need a bigger line by January 2005. Hmm…

Unfortunately I haven’t had the time to record very much for my soundblog, but I reckon I’ll have something new up sometime soon, so check back sometime next week.
