Sunday of my Life

Dorothea has recently been putting up on Caveat Lector a series of posts on fighting referer spam and bandwith hogs that endlessly trawl your site with bots (ignoring the stringent rules you, or she in this case, laid down in the robots.txt file, of course). Find linkyness below:

Hell, if this interests you, then I’d suggest subscribing to her Spam Specific RSS Feed with your news aggregator. There will be much goodness to come in this section, I can feel it. It’s already got some invaluable stuff in there that I am using to protect Sunday from these bastard sons of a bastard’s barstard’s barstard. (Guessed I don’t like spammers of any kind yet?)

Sign up, read. Play, fiddle, learn (as one of my friends says). You’ll be glad you did, trust me.
