Moderator desktop app for moderating WordPress blog comments

If you have a blog that gets a lot of comments, you might be finding that logging into your blog's administration panel to moderate comments has become a bit of a laborious process. If your blog runs on the WordPress platform and is self-managed, you might like to check out the Moderator plugin and associated Adobe Air desktop application.The concept here is straightforward: install the plugin on your blog, then follow the instructions to install the Air application on your Windows or Mac machine.

It would be wonderful if Morderator allowed you to monitor mulitple WordPress blogs and moderate comments for all of them from within one interface. You can change the site that you are aiming Moderator at, but support for multiple sites would be a great enhancement.

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
