Is it my fault for not disabling the new gmail related Buzz application? I've hardly touched Buzz, but since I enabled it, I'm getting daily spam as comments to my blog posts. Some of the blog posts to which the spam is directed have been long gone. How does anyone see these old posts once I delete them?
How do I know the comments are spam? It's the same endless stream I get on my Localnet Webmail account. The Localnet is my oldest dial-up email account, seldom used, but I keep it for a select bunch of subscriptions I want to see. Localnet had a good spam filter. 25 spam a week is not a big deal, but Localnet was cleaner until recent weeks.
The bigger problem with spam in Blogger comments, there is no clue as to who the sender is. At least in Yahoo Mail and gmail, you can see a bogus address, or a poorly worded subject line.
