I can recall once signing up (or at least attempting to) for a Microsoft service that had a CAPTCHA device to prevent spam submissions. After the 3rd try - unable to submit because I couldn't read the image, I tracked down an email to at least feel like I had complained. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;No response!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;2 thoughts - one serious, one a goof.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Goof first. The smart-ass in me wants to create a 'faux captcha' - called GOTCHA that is completely indecipherable. Picture your story illustration fuzzed out completely.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;On a serious note, I do like those attempts to verify human use that use math problems - 'write the answer to 6+3'.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7930477993984397381/1712074204987859671/comments/default/5667093345842483137'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7930477993984397381/1712074204987859671/comments/default/5667093345842483137'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://technically-speaking-radio.blogspot.com/2008/09/todays-two-tech-thumbs-down-award-goes.html?showComment=1226621040000#c5667093345842483137' title=''/><author><name>Rick Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04390890225084117246</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://technically-speaking-radio.blogspot.com/2008/09/todays-two-tech-thumbs-down-award-goes.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7930477993984397381.post-1712074204987859671' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7930477993984397381/posts/default/1712074204987859671' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
