Akismet rules!
I’ve been getting increasing amounts of linkspam to this blog; since I’ve never had direct-to-publish commenting enabled, I’ve only gotten it in my inbox, but it is still a hassle to go manually clear that out every time.
Enter akismet; it aggregates spam occurences from all the blogs it is installed on, to provide very accurate targetting of all those viagra (and friends’) scams. This is just my shout-out to the excellent work these guys are doing!
Good askimet is. Blocks about 200 spam comments/day on my side.
Do you know of any other service providers that prevent spam. I am suppose to do some research and get 3 different providers and can only find one. Your help would be greatly appreciated, Goran.
