Maybe leave an email address for people to contact you? Otherwise you pretty much have to do moderation. Good thing is for a small blog there likely won't be very much!

Spam is a large problem on any scale. Unless you use something that filter bots, the size of your blog doesn't matter much.
- I want to start blogging
- I don't want to blog if I won't get any feedback on what people like to read
- I don't want to admin / moderate comments because it sounds like work
- I could rely on Reddit / HN threads, but that means I don't get comment threads until I reach a critical mass of popularity. Faster Than Lime will reach the front page every time, but I won't be putting in his level of effort, so I'll get buried in a couple hours if it even gets shared.
I don't even want a community, I just want someone to say, "Hey that's kinda neat". Maybe what I need is self-hosted Medium kudos?
