We’ve been getting a bunch of spam so I installed a word verification pulgin called reCAPCHTA. It’s similar to other word verification tools in that you get an image of a word and you have to type it in but this one adds a second word. This second word could not be digitized by a computer. So every time someone posts a comment their helping to digitize the books of the world.

woah! that is very cool. I can’t wait until flummery comes up, and I can help introduce it to the world of digitized/archived books.
