"Call it a late holiday gift or a great way to start the new year. In either case, we are pleased to offer you the Six Apart Guide for Fighting Comment Spam (also available in PDF format).
The guide covers many of the concepts and tools available to fight comment spam and explains the strengths and weaknesses that we've seen of each. We also included our "best practices" recommendations for not only keeping spam off of your site, but making sure that you and your readers have the best possible experience. The document is intended to be a fairly comprehensive, living document which will change and grow over time to reflect the changing nature of the topic."
From MoveableType, a good (free) guide for anyone with a weblog published with their software. I publish part of this site (the Resources page) with their software and love their latest 3.14 release. Many of the techniques they use to avoid comment spam work with other weblog publishing tools as well.
