Alec Saunders had a great post yesterday about how blog spammers have outgunned him. It's nice to see someone keeping all those stats and then providing them. We've been using Akismet over at Voice of VOIPSA as well and it has worked fantastically, but I've been deleting all the blog spam now and then, so I don't have any great way to keep a record like this.
Anyone out there still think you do NOT need to be running some type of comment/trackback moderation or filtering?
