Is TrackBack dead?
It has been almost two weeks since I implemented TrackBack on this site, but now I'm beginning to wonder why I even put it up there in the first place. The idea of sending out a TrackBack whenever you link to or talk about someone's article seems fair to me, but my fear is that spammers have completely destroyed it's potential. The only two TrackBacks I have received so far were spam and I need to think about doing some anti-spam scripting if I want to keep it up...but I can't decide if it is worth the effort to do another major update to make TrackBack work.

Does anyone still use this? Is it worth implementing auto-TrackBack features or will I just receive more spam? Has TrackBack been destroyed?
