    Installed it on the Blog Awards site only a few months ago. Spams caught: 153,367
    Mulley.net has Askimet since June 06, spams stopped: 157,495

    Crazy isn’t it? God bless Askimet. I’d happily pay 100 quid a year or more for this service.

    Jesus…. 150k+?

    Spam count as a measure of blog success? :)

    Writing posts about google and sex and twinks gets a lot of spam bots it seems.

    50/50 situation so! I’d happily pay for it myself, have it running across 12 different blogs now I think..

    The only problem with my anti-spam techniques is that I don’t get to see how many I’m blocking :)
