I am sorry, but I have been forced to add a CAPTCHA to the comments page of my blog. The word, CAPTCHA stands for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart.”
It is a simple test that you must pass before you can post a comment on the blog. All you have to do is read a number on the comment page that looks something like this.
and then enter the number into the field provided on the comment form. If you cannot read the number, no worries. Just click on the button that looks like this:
and a new number will be generated. Heck, you may find that it is more fun just to click on the button and see the weird numbers go by than it is to read the blog. I can do that for hours. Hey! A child of the 60’s. What can I say?
Anyway, the test is easy for humans to solve and difficult for computers to solve. Since most of the SPAM comments are created by computers, this simple test will cut down on the amount of time I have to spend deleting SPAM and will allow me more time to come up with incredibly witty comments for my blog.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Please feel free to leave a comment about it on the blog if you can’t figure it out………. except ……… you will have to do the CAPTCHA to do that….. so never mind.
