Dries Buytaert launches Mollom - Anti-spam service for everyone
Tagged:  •    •  

Dries Buytaert has been busy. Close on the heels of launching Acquia comes yet another company, Mollom. Mollom is what allows me to leave comments open to the public here on Robshouse.net. When you leave a comment on a Mollom protected site, the text is subject to statistical analysis to determine the probability of you being a jerk (spammer). If you're a jerk, your content will get flagged by Mollom as spam and not published. False positives/negatives are rare, and the administrator has recourse in all cases. This makes running sites with user generated content much easier and comfortable. Check out some of the great innovations that Mollom offers. Congratulations, Dries, you're a busy man!
