[...] Wordpress 2.0 is coming out as a final release soon. The blogosphere is all a flutter with excitement. Seems most of the changes are internal … meaning, unless you’re a developer, you won’t really notice them, visually. My question is - - with the auto-thumbnailing of images finally work out of the box? What’s new in this version? Glad ya asked - check it out I’m a big WP fan, for sure - so every new release gives me thrills. God when did I get so boring? [...]

Hello Angusman,
Been about a year since I’ve visited here..
Had a couple questions:
Have you upgraded your blog to wordpress 2.0 yet?
Before you talked about the best anti comment and trackback spam plug in… Do these still work for wordpress 2.0 or do you have a new best recommended ones to keep spam out for Wordpress 2.0 ?
Thank you.

Dear Thomas,
Welcome back.
No. I haven’t upgraded my blog to 2.0 nor would I recommend it yet.
All my anti-spam plugins like referer bouncer work.
However I haven’t tested for other plugins.
You can give Akismet a try. Personally I am not comfortable about routing all my comments through another server just to determine whether it is a spam.

I don’t suppose you know of a way I can get rid of the upload section in the write area of 2.0? Or make it collapse and be movable like the rest of the options?
