Steve’s Tech Journal has been discovered by the comment spam bots — I’m now moderating 10 to 15 messages a day to the spam pile. Most of them have something to say about “1 small clove of garlic”, they all compliment my site which makes me feel very good, then they all have a url to god knows where. I haven’t dared click. I keep all this away from you, my valued reader, by clicking the mark all as spam button followed by the batch moderate button.
So, imagine my pleasure at getting a real comment today on my Enough Sip / Skype Foolishness post. It is enough on topic that I approved it, in that it asked if I knew about p2p sip play damaka.
But now I suspect that this was simply a damaka promoter, going around to various VoIP web sites that reference skype and adding comments. Have I just been used? Or, was it a real damaka user catching up on his or her SIP/Skype readings and trying to be helpful.
Hmmm, maybe there’s more to this journalism thing than meets the eye
