Visitors to the individual entry pages of this blog may notice a new message that I added to my template. “The installed “nofollow” plug-in automatically modifies all links submitted in comments and TrackBacks to add the rel="nofollow" attribute.”
After reading this post on the Google Blog and then this post on Six Apart’s site, installing the new plug-in sounded like a good idea.
It won’t reduce the amount of comment spam I receive (at least at first) because most spammers and spambots won’t care and try anyway, but at least it is one more way of fighting back against these PageRank-boosting bottom-feeders.

Just testing the new plug-in (Test Link).
i want to buy a mac mini so should i just get with 256 ram then upgrade to 1gb???
In think so, artone. A price comparison engine like DealRam.com shows a 1 GB stick of RAM going for under $100. Apple charges a $200-$225 premium for 1 GB. (They have to make their shareholders happy, I guess.) The mac Mini is a bit of a pain to open up, but with patience and a putty knife, you should be fine.
