Comment Stupidity Filter On Its Way: Interesting site pointed out by WebProNews about a comment stupidity filter that could differentiate between sarcasm and stupidity (and I presume spam is stupid). Apparently, stupid comments (as opposed to stupid people) tend to use more consonants and more clever comments use more vowels. This can get pretty offensive! CNN Money, where this was originally noticed, must have been having a slow day. The solution we’re creating is simple: an open-source filter software that can detect rampant stupidity in written English…. we’re collecting a ranked corpus of stupid text, gleaned from user comments on public websites and ranked on a five-point scale. Interesting. I hope the StupidFilter folks have spent some time thinking about internationalization of comments and encoding standards in their upcoming WordPress plugin. I can see spam comments in the form of a bunch of vowels and/or commenters being really self-conscious about […]

Andrew Rickmann recently launched a neat new site called Fun With WordPress to showcase some of his WordPress projects. One of the first tools he has published is called Fun With Plugins. The tool acts like a plugin wizard, and after you answer several questions, the tool generates a downloadable plugin file. One of the things I like about this tool compared to similar ones is the automatic namespacing, and support for some of the more advanced things plugin authors take advantage of including localization and admin menus. Future versions promise Ajax support, style support, client side scripting, and an automatically generated WP Extend readme file. Be sure to check out the tool and let Andrew know how he can make it even better.
