There are many reasons to love Wired but this month’s Russell M Davies column on spam really stood out for me. I don’t get many comments on the blog (but then I don’t get many readers…) so when I get a nice comment, I certainly empathise with:

The other area of beguiling spamminess is the stuff that gets posted as comments on blogs. These are often delicately written, flattering but vague, praising the perspicacity and charm of your blog without mentioning anything specific about it. Almost exactly the kind of comment you’d like to receive…

I loved this article. It was nice (as the comment spammers might say).
