Blogger Comment Word….. I mean String of Random Letters Verification

Blogger’s Word Verification is a complete misnomer. I know it’s to prevent comment spam, but could they at least make the funky looking letters spell a real word, instead of akjfdlauvo and qoeuizcxko?

According to American Heritage Dictionary, a word is defined as:

A sound or a combination of sounds, or its representation in writing or printing, that symbolizes and communicates a meaning and may consist of a single morpheme or of a combination of morphemes.

I hereby implore Blogger to either start using words for verification or to refer to it as String of Random Letters Verification, because that’s what it is right now.

One thought on “Blogger Comment Word….. I mean String of Random Letters Verification

  1. In group theory, particularly combinatorial group theory, a “word” is any string of letters in a fixed alphabet. Also in information theory. I’m guessing it can also be used in computer science in this sense. So sorry, but I think you’re being too narrow-minded :P
