Just yesterday, I read this interesting article about a link spammer (via mezzoblue). In short these folks spam comments and trackbacks of weblogs in the hopes of pumping up the search engine rankings of porn, drug, and casino sites.
Then, this morning I woke up to hundreds of trackback spams on my site. I'll need to clean 'em out tonight, but it sure is annoying. And it looks like I'm not the only one. Grr.
