 * Is there a hack that will display a random image to verify a person is a person(
   not a spambot) like you see all over the internet anymore? I’d rather use that
   then a blacklist which could slow down the site and create large lists of ips.

 * if u had searched u would have found the reason why image identification is not
   on the list of WP devs 🙂
    accessibility is the keyword!

 * I searched, its just hard to find keywords for that. If it works for yahoo and
   them tho, why not wordpress?

 * ‘Cause images are not machine readable, and it is good to have webpages that 
   are accessible by machines that are not just bots, but you know, machines that
   help, for example, visually impaired people. Site-design with accesibility in
   mind is good, as it help classify information automatically for one…that’s why
   they recommend giving every image an “alt” too…

 * Plus alt is mandatory for validation.

 * title for user friendliness coz good browsers dont use alt text for titles…
