Captcha Arrives for TechNet Blogs – feedback welcome here

As you can see from my blog and all of the other blogs on the technet.com and msdn.com areas, comments now require using the captcha codes.  This is of course to fight off the spam bots and other nefarious creatures of the web. 

So what do you think? Will this have any effect on you?  Still planning to comment?  Is it just one more nuisance you don’t need?  The upside is that we are still allowing anon comments.  I moderate comments because bot or not, I still need to make sure someone isn’t posting porn links, using outrageous profanity, etc.  So I’m curious if the catcha stuff will deter you from commenting.  I worry the answer is yes.  I am hopeful the answer is no.  Thoughts?
