Testing Out Ecto

2566882084 A645C1Eba2 MThis post is a test post. I am using it to evaluate Ecto, the desktop blogging software for Mac OS X. Attached to this blog post is a photo I took on a trip to Washington D.C. in February of 2006. Enjoy.

Quitting Smoking is Big Business for Advertising

Interesting observation: apparently, the topic of quitting smoking is big business for Internet advertising. Since I wrote about a method of using your PDA to help quit smoking, I have been deleting quite a few spam comments from the post.

Usually most of the spam that comes into my sites originates from automated systems. These comments on the other hand, appear to be from owners of ad-laden “how to quit smoking” sites who are actively seeking out blog posts like this in order to post a quasi-irrelevant comment with their URL attached.
