This is one of those posts that you don't care about, but will be very handy for me later. :)

Comment Spam

• Akismet Why? Because it's bundled with Wordpress, silly.
• Challenge I loath the idea of using a CAPTCHA because of accessibility concerns. I chose Challenge over other plugins because it allows me to provide PHP eval'd questions of my own. Once the bots get smarter at reading the standard question, I can generate my own variations.

Formatting

• PHP Markdown Of course, PHP Markdown is only possible because of John Grubers work building Markdown.

Fancy Shmancy Stuff

• IP to Country I still get excited when I realize that the people I am conversing with online (through forums, blogs, email, whatever) are from all over the world. :)
