Comment Spam

Thursday, August 12th, 2004

Oh, there’s nothing like waking up in the morning and finding your weblog filled with comment spam. ;)

All of it has been removed now. Comment spam isn’t a big problem, yet, it’s just a little bit annoying. And once it becomes a big problem, there are certainly ways to deal with it (e.g. blocking IP addresses and not showing comments until I’ve OK’d them).

Everything is returning to normal here. My parents have gone back home. Even the weather seems to become colder and rainier again. Well, at least I’ll have more time for work and blogging!

Great Weather

Monday, August 9th, 2004

Oh, finally, some actual summer weather! In the last few days, it’s been around 28-30 C (low/mid 80s F).

The fall semester begins on August 30th—let’s hope the weather is this good until then.

Surprise Visit

Wednesday, August 4th, 2004

My parents surprised me by coming here, to Stockholm. They told me about it just the day before. So, now, all of my family is in the area, although we’re staying in four separate places… Well, while they’re here (which isn’t very often), I’ll be trying to spend a lot of time with them.

This means less work done, but I couldn’t say this means lighter posting—after all, I haven’t been posting that much lately, so the posting couldn’t be much lighter than it already is. Sorry about that.

By the way, I’m posting this through w.bloggar. Let’s see if it works. (Result: Pebble did get the title, but not the category. I think I read something about that being fixed in Pebble 1.5 though, so when I’ve upgraded, it should work perfectly.)
