Check this out… if it’s computer generated it’s great:
“I think the concept of utilizing blogs as a educational resource online is a fabulous idea. In fact, if I’m not mistaken, I read a piece on ASU as they are taking it a step and setting aside a full set of courses on how to make the most of your educational experience via utilization of blogging and the like. It just goes to show how powerful the net and being online has truly become.
great writing,
take care,
B.”

Do you have direct evidence this is computer-generated? We have a project in this field (computer-generated text, not spam) and I’ve never seen anything capable of extracting meaning like this. Nor have I seen computer generated text with grammar such as “I read a piece on ASU *as* they are..”, though I own that’s technically possible to do.
Here’s an alternative suggestion; Incsub is now sexy enough (at PR5) to attract the next level up of spam – input from an actual human, and an expensive Western-educated one at that.

It’s an odd one ‘aint it… lucky I’ve got human proof spam blocking :)
Further thought – interesting and slightly exasperating that your ‘nofollow’ setting isn’t protecting you from the attentions of spammers. I guess it’s quicker to post a spam than it is to investigate the settings on a blog.
