Just checked out your site. Like it! I agree, it's hard to sort through so many spam comments to make sure Akismet is hitting everything right. So far it has not filtered any legit comments. And it keeps catching and catching for me. Of course, a few bad ones slip through too. But once flagged as spam akismet seems to keep similar ones out. Glad it's available! Hey Tim.

I have seen a couple false-positives and I don't want to delete anyone's actual comment, so I try to skim over them. It can be hard when askimet has 700 comments waiting for me to delete.
