Akismet Million
December 30th, 2005, by Rich.
A quick hat-tip to Matt Mullenweg whose Akismet service has just caught it’s one millionth comment spam message.
I wrote a bit about Akismet a few months ago when it was launched. Prior to that I was one of the testers. I am delighed to say that since it left beta the spam stopping efficiency has not deteriorated from the levels that I experienced during the first tests - and the plugin’s interface has improved too. It’s also grown beyond it’s wordpress origins with the API being translated to several languages and CMS’s.
Will 2006 be a completely spam free year? Perhaps.
