Numinous Nonsense

I’m not sure why, but over the past couple months I’ve been contending with nearly 500 - 1000 spam comments a day…! Before that I’d have a couple a day, but now I’m getting tonsssss. In any case, I’ve been manually deleting them each day (several times a day), and it has become a bit time consuming.

Well, today I finally sat down and used my time to discover a solution that would end this manual bullshit. It looks like there’s a pretty kick ass spam filter plugin for Wordpress called Akismet, and after installing it and watching every single one of those evil little spam comments get obliterated I’m convinced I’ve found a solution (at least a temporary one). If you have Wordpress, or are thinking of using it, Akismet is key.
