Singing the Joys of WordPress

I have to say, I do love the fact that WordPress allows me to write posts and schedule them to post themselves to cover days when I don’t feel up to blogging. I’ve been having a lot of trouble viewing the monitor lately–my eyes feel like they’re dancing and nothing stays in focus, leading to migraines very quickly. That is not a good thing when I’m in the last week of classes for the semester!

I get a lot of spam comments on this blog, but over 99% of them are caught by Defensio. That’s a real figure, not an estimate! See?
Defensio Statistics for Technomom.com

Many of those are truly disgusting, even without ever following a link. If I could find a way to automatically disable comments on any post over a certain age, I think the quantity would go way down. I don’t want to do that manually, though, and I haven’t found a plugin that will do it automatically. I did make a post in the WP forums asking about one, hoping that I just missed something that is already available.
