Winning Against Comment Spam

Also today I installed Steve Smith of OrderedList.com’s FeedBurner plugin to redirect all my feeds to FeedBurner. It was a simple setup and it’s effective, and lots easier than going and manually setting everything up. Thanks, Steve, for another great plugin to go along with your amazing Wordpress Tiger Admin theme!

Incidentally, has anyone upgraded to Wordpress 2.0 yet? I’m using a very recent version, but I haven’t upgraded to the big “2.0″ yet. I’m thinking I need to wait just a little bit longer for all the plugins to get updated and be compatible with version 2.0, huh? I should really check, because I don’t even know how they revamped the plugin system in 2.0 (or if they have revamped it).

Well, that’s all for now, folks. Toodles!

    You are more than welcome to update my blog to WP 2.0 and check it out if you want.

    I just changed over to wp2 in areas it’s more practical but some times it can be slower. As Akismet I ran it through all my comments and I caught 23 comments.

    i’ve got 2.0 on my site. i like it, i didn’t use 1.5 enough to compare between the two, but it seems easily managable from all that i have tried to do with it.
