There’s a tiny bit of a conspiracy theorist in my that wonders if Akismet is bloating its numbers or if it is actually catching almost 1,000 spamments a day now.
I never saw that amount of comment spam before I installed Akismet. Anyone else want to speculate?
Regardless, I’m very thrilled with the job it’s doing for me in moderating the onslaught (real or imagined)!

Jason – You inspired me to install akismet last week or so. I had heard of it but never acted on it and found myself moderating an increasing number of spamments. Since I installed, it says it has blocked 56 and that's probably about right, considering I was probably dealing with up to 10 a day. Not 1000 a day, like you, though. :)
