Approaching a spam milestone

SIERRA MADRE, CA - MAY 29:  Spam, the often-ma...

This blog seems to be getting a few hundred spam comments a day and I’ve just noticed that I’ve just superceeded 48,500 spam comments stopped by Akismet. Not that I mind spam so much nowadays; my plugins do an awfully good job in stopping them get through, but it’s still a pretty big number. Most of them seem to be garbage nowadays though there’s the obligatory ones for pharmaceuticals, cheap  Rolex and Seiko watches and even high speed satellite internet.

I’ve actually noticed that I’m not even running Bad Behaviour on this blog, it’s just Akismet, so having 2 comments to moderate out of the 1000+ that were trapped is pretty good going I thought. Do you get lots of spam?
