Normally it isn't a huge deal to keep up with but since I was traveling it sucked to have to deal with 150+ spam comments at night. Luckily Wordpress has caught a decent number of the spam and held it for moderation. I’ve noticed a big spike in spam commente in the last couple days.

Akismet is too MT-Blacklist-esque for my liking. I like my blog spam protection to work a little more natively. There was a serious rash of trackback spam on twoassholes that I noticed last week. I wasn't running any kind of spam stop on there because it generates so little traffic and gets posted to so infrequently. After I installed SK2, 142 TB spams were squashed (and counting) with a grand total of 0 getting through. Yay SK2. I far prefer Spam Karma 2 to Akismet.
