MT upgrade/nofollow plugin--spammers can kiss my...
So I've upgraded to better handle comment spam and I've added the nofollow plugin which means that anyone posting a URL to my site won't find that URL picked up by Google, Yahoo or MSN Search. Google led the way on this initiative and my hats off to them for realizing that the way that they rank websites is the reason that comment spam occurs in the first place.
I've reopened my comments again. If you are unregistered with Typekey then your comment won't show up right away--it will go into a queue until I moderate it, and I'll try to do that in a very timely manner. I receive an email everytime I receive a comment so can keep tabs on that easily. I do recommend registering with Typekey though...then you will be able to comment on a variety of MT sites without any issue.
I'll post Blizzard 05 pictures soon!

Good going on the upgrade. It's annoying that these spammers keep targetting blogs and nice to see that Google's trying to counter that!
