There’s some “handy” (depending on the darkness of your hat) tricks starting to filter out into the mainstream.

Here’s a couple, on a similar theme:

• XSS and Redirection Attacks
• Moveable Type Backlink Exploit

Why bring ‘em up? Well, they’re out there, arent they.

Secondly, they help emphasise how ridiculous the nofollow (read: nosolution) “strategy” has been. Did they talk to clued-up SEOs? No, they did not. Meanwhile, blog software makers, and bloggers themselves, have been lured into a false sense of security.

The spamfest continues unabated, and it is hardly surprising…
