Columbia University Medical Center Columbia University Medical Center Fri, Aug 15, 2008, 11:10 am CDT Implemented this on the site today. Seems to be working great. I can't believe I hadn't come across this previously... It would have been nice to not have to come up with my own CAPTCHA system ;) But I guess it was a good learning experience... Matt



Guest Comment Guest Comment Thu, Sep 11, 2008, 9:22 am CDT Awesome update - we started using recaptcha about a year ago on some of our sites. But the need for it on some sites disappeared as there was little to no spam. However, we will be using it in several projects going forward. I'm thrilled to see that it has grown so much.
