Fighting spam on Wordpress MU & Buddypress

I run a WPMU+Buddypress community called Penhouse. Things were going great for the first few weeks, and then the spam registrations started showing up. In force. (For the record, all those registrations came from 5 IPs: 84.48.63.4 · 24.86.162.44 · 125.236.154.68 · 125.238.253.47 · 125.238.253.248) After digging around

Avatar plot fail

Conclusive proof that Avatar’s about as original as sliced bread. (via @christopherm)

Seesmic Look

They’ve somehow managed to get Twitter AND Microsoft on board with the launch of their new Twitter application, designed to take Twitter to the ultimate mainstream market: the Average Home User.

Why you shouldn’t get married

This has been an interesting thought train for the last few days – trying to find reasons why, in the modern world, getting married is a bad idea. There’ve been some major changes in the relationship landscape in the last 10 years, and I don’t think it’s a bad
