Hot Captcha is a super simple site that provides an alternative to the annoying “please type the following characters that humans can’t read so for SURE computers won’t be able to” boxes. Rather than some mangled text, they’ve used the Hot or Not API to bring up 9 images of people.

You get the three that ARE hot… you pass and your submission can go through. Don’t get all three you must be a bot!

Perhaps they should have called it Hot or Bot!
