Someone leaves a link to an anonymous blog with a twist on an old entry. This time it's not so much the author him/her/itself who remains anonymous, but the blog is open for anybody to post to anonymously. An interesting experiment, but I can't help wonder... we did already have Usenet, didn't we?
Anonymity all around though: an anonymous commenter, Nobody in particular, shows up at Anders' weblog. Anders however appears to have a fix on this commenter and replies with some thoughts about what it means to 'know' a blogger.
Then of course, we had the mystery of the Raging Platypus for the past week or so, and Mark Pilgrim now fesses up to be its creator, driving 10.000 visitors to the site with some help of a few high-powered blogging friends. Not bad for a bit of a silly site like the Platypus... it's not quite the Slashdot effect I guess, but I recon it must be quite visible in your server logs if your site starts making the rounds in the blogosphere.

Since MT-Blacklist inexplicably stopped working I had no other recourse than close comments and trackbacks to stop the spam. I've been meaning to correct this for quite a while, but life got in the way... in a good way I should add.
