Living in a world of open source/freeware, we sometimes take for granted the luxuries the offerings our fellow internet using/geek-ish/über-intelligent community gives us. Free blog platform, free support, free themes, free plugins, free ftp clients, free text-editors, you get the point.
Well, one of, if not the greatest blight on the internet is SPAM. And as a multi-blogger, with a 400 or so unique IP’s between the various blogs, I can attest, blog spam can suck. Thus the need for options like Bad Behaviour. You guessed it, a freeplugin. This blogger uses it in conjunction with Spam Karma 2, and gets no comment spam, at any site.
All that said, Bad Behaviour needs to continue to stay in development. And it’s developer has suffered a hardware setback (laptop died). So pop over and donate what you can to support development, and keep in mind, freeware doesn’t mean it can’t be supported financially. Think of it as tipping.
Oh, and if you blog at the WSJ and are reading this, I certainly hope you donated…
