A site where users report site's as potentially inaccessible and everyone can vote yes or no on accessibility. Interesting concept that may help increase accountability.

Allows you to hide the comment until approved by an admin... seems to work well... i enabled it on tis and longhorn reviews... of course, no comments were found out in the internets.

Thought the Team would enjoy. Very few people on their death bed have said, "I should have spent more time at work." FROM THE WEBSITE: SurveyMonkey has been profitable from almost day one and refuses to go public. SurveyMonkey has done all of this while creating a culture that enables the company's CEO, Dave Goldberg, to leave the office by 5:30 p.m.

Great post. It perfectly summarizes all my problems with captcha and the fact that there's not yet a good solution. I think that using computing power to recognize spammy submissions and weed them out (based on time it takes to complete the form or the language used in the post or the attached link) would work well for our purposes but ultimately we have to reduce/eliminate the benefit of spamming in order to stem the tide at the source.
