Interview with me at OneCommune

Published July 12th, 2006 edit replace rm!

OneCommune has just published an interview with me about my discussion system Talk.org.

OneCommune is a great resource for forum operators. Il foro de tutti Forae you might say if you like me know neither Latin nor Italian.

Spam blocking and Free Speech

Published March 30th, 2006 edit replace rm!

Talk.org is all about free speech. But after a few bouts of spam attacks and a bit of adolescent sausage fumbling I need to figure out where to draw the line between censorship and spam blocking.

Believe me it is a very thin line. Do I search for bad words? If someone wants to talk anonymously about the benefits of cXalis vs vXagra. Shouldn’t they have a forum?

I already have a simple technical approach that I am testing bit, by bit. But I need more.

The first thing I will have to revise is the front page. Right now it is just the latest active conversations. This should probably be filtered somehow, similar to Digg differentiation between front page news and their diggall view. What algorithms I will use I am not sure of yet, but we will see.

I am also thinking of implementing an adult flag. Where messages specifically set with an adult flag enjoy fully uncensored posting.

Whatever I do I will keep you posted here and on Talk.org.
