In just eight months, Automattic’s Akismet plugin has pretty much eliminated me spam problem all together.

Akismet has caught 15,082 spam fer ye since ye first installed it.

I first installed it near th' end o' October last year and it’s just been doin' a fantastic job. For those o' ye keepin' score at home, that’s 4,881 since I last mentioned it back in February. If ye do th' math, that averages out t' roughly 57 spam comments per day that I don’t have t' worry about, I'll warrant ye. Thanks again t' Matt and th' Automattic team.
