In the last 24 hours my poor little blog has received around 200 spam comments. I guess that means the just-installed-new-blog-software honeymoon period is finally over…

Thankfully, because WordPress sucks infintely less than Movable Type, all those comments are in moderation but it’s still a pain for me to scroll down the list to make sure nobody I know has landed in there by mistake before I trash them all. The Akismet plugin looked like it might stop the deluge, but apparently I need an API key in order to use it and the registration email that WordPress allegedly sent me never arrived. Bah.

On the plus side, this week’s TV has been top-notch, with way too much Big Brother coverage than can possibly be healthy for a person to watch having been absorbed (currently I know that Shahbaz is in the diary room talking to Big Brother about whether or not he’s going to leave – or at least he was 18 minutes ago, which is the current lag in the “live” coverage), not to mention the fantasticness that is Eurovision tomorrow night!

I’ll tackle the comment spam another time…
