Aehso’s Output

While moving this site to a new hosting provider this evening I added the reCAPTCHA Wordpress plugin to help control comment spam. reCAPTCHA’s tagline “Digitizing Books One Word at a Time” sums it up nicely.

The word images contain two words – one from a scan of old text that couldn’t be identified via OCR, the other is a verification word. If you match the verification word then we both know you are human and

1. they use your other word to translate the word that couldn’t be OCR’ed.
2. your comment gets added to my post

Nice!

So, it’s official, Ireland will host Les Bleus at Croker! I’d imagine the atmosphere will be unreal.

I have to get tickets for this game. Every year, I have been close to getting tickets when France visited Lansdowne but they never came through on the day. With 35,000 extra tickets floating around next year, surely some kind soul will be send one(two?) my way? And, there’s also the Lansdowne faithful to consider – some will refuse to step north of the Liffey…there should be plenty of tickets going around!
