Well after a months-long hiatus from doing anything even remotely related to Blosxonomy, I finally got around to implementing a simple user-confirmation system for the comments system.
Now, when you post comments to an entry, your email is verified against a list of authorized emails. If your email isn't in my list, a verification email is automatically generated and sent to you, containing a link. All you need to do is click the link to confirm your email, and voiala, your comment appears, and you're free to comment as much as you like.
Hopefully this simple step will significantly reduce the amount of comment spam I recieve on this site.
In other sad news, a simple typo in a bash script resulted in the accidental deletion of all comments in my database. *Oops*. Guess I should have made a backup.

Hi!
I just downloaded blosxonomy, after configuring it (following the pastdated README) it runs with out error but the page is blank, i.e no html,no display no errors... strange indeed
So, I come back to your page (blosxonomy.com) and I noted that you have the same problem! (Except for the first page, all the other pages are blank, only showing the header...)
Could you help me?

Oh yeah, I'll release the new comments plugin with installation instructions to the blosxonomy site soon. I wanna give it a test run here for a few days before releasing it to the wild.
