Blog Spam

Rich and I were talking about SPAM for blogs the other day and what do you know, Slashdot is talking about it now…Slashdot | Spam Rapidly Increasing In Weblog Comments. Cloudmark is doing the best job of e-mail anti SPAM and looking for ways to expand the business. Blog SPAM could be an interesting. People don’t today pay for BLOG publishing tools, so getting them to pay for anti-spam could be even more problematic. Probably too early. In the end the right BLOG comment spam solution probably ties into the authorization or registration process of commentors. Maybe someone like Technorati who has enough bloggers registered may be able to do something.
