Hi Everybody,

I wanted to take a moment and announce a free CAPTCHA service that we've
launched today to help safe guard against spam bots.

As OpenID begins to proliferate it will become a target for spammers that
bring up rogue identity providers and "do bad things".  We've built a very
simple CAPTCHA verification web service that works with OpenID's.  Sites can
subscribe to the service to see if specific OpenID's have entered the
CAPTCHA.

You can read more here:

I'd love to hear any comments/suggestions/questions folks might have.

Thanks and have a great weekend everybody!

- Scott
