Thank You Akismet!
Trivia March 28th, 2008 - By Haochi
The following post is totally unrelated to Google, but I think I should show some appreciation to the folks at Automattic who developed the Akismet service (and the great WordPress, despite that I am not very satisfied with, but still great), which had caught over 200,000 spam comments on this blog since I installed it in the late 2006. (200K is about 0.0038% of all spam Akismet ever caught)
The above line chart shows the amount of spam comments accumulated over time. Well, thank you Akismet!

Hi,
I love Akismet! It’s doing a very good job for my journal. May I ask why you’re not happy with Wordpress? I’m using WP for my journal, too, and am not totally happy with it, either. The application is doing great, I’m just not happy with some comments that came from the creator of WP a few months back.
