Ruby quick'n'dirty Captcha


As you probably know, this site you’re looking at right now relies on the Borg platform . Since Borg is still in its very early stage of development, I’m starting to address some of its current limitations. For example, user comments are still missing, but you cannot enable user comments without some sort of protection from spambots. Therefore, here come captchas .

Hi there

The name is Riccardo Govoni. I’m a Software Engineer working in Google London. I have a passion for data visualizations, data mining, theoretical physics, xkcd, having lots of vi (or emacs, depending on the mood) buffers on screen and coding in general. Learn more about me.

Additional Resources

Have a look at the site blog, the Site map or a selection of some of the projects I work on (mostly in my spare time, likely to be out of date).

Featured Projects

Rhizosphere, is an innovative project to provide in-browser html-based spatial navigation and interaction on structured data.

Borg, brand new v3.2 is out!
