Bad news for MT bloggers

Comment spam has become such a problem for Moveable Type that some hosts have disabled comments on people's blogs. See the article here. Obviously this is going to cause a problem for millions of bloggers out there who rely on MT for their comments.

Now I don't know if this information is of any use to you, but I use independent comment hosts that give me a lot more flexibility than the default option. The popular choice is Haloscan, but I've found Enetation to be more to my liking.
