Thoughts Along the Way

Thoughts on the interaction of God, people, truth, and our world

 

Michael Armstrong

For over 25 years, I have been working in student ministry at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. Working with college students has given me an opportunity to look at life from many different angles. I have also served as a track & field official for almost 20 years, working meets from high school through masters and local through international levels.

First, it was telemarketers. Then email spam. Then pop-up ads. And now, BLOG SPAM! I have received at least five "spam" comments on my blog this week. They all follow the same basic format: "Great blog. Check out my site on (take your choice): betting, health supplements, real estate, buying airplanes, etc." Ugh!

Hey I got 3 blog spam things this week too! What's up? Can't they be blocked somehow? I changed my setting on my blog. Annoying...

I was cheking my site meter and noticed a visit from your site. I skimmed and read about the blogspam stuff. I too have gotten a couple. If you go to you template and turn on the word entry (something like that) a person will have to enter a word to leave a message. That way you cn still get anonymous comments if you have people visiting that don't want to join blogger. Just another option.

Kindly,
