CodeIgniter Akismet Library - Stop Spam Now!

[eluser]Michael Wales[/eluser]
Excellent addition Elliot! I love Akismet, it has currently stopped 14,700 spam comments on my blog since I first installed it (about a year ago).

I get about 250-300 spam comments a day now (yes, there is a downside to having a high Google PR). I've never found a false positive (although I don't really look hard, upon glances I don't find any) and very rarely does a spam comment make it through (although I delete a lot of trackbacks as spam - primarily foreign blogs that include some of my Wordpress plugins in lists of 100-200 at a time).
