I've got really good spam filters on e-mail so I don't get a whole lot of e-mail spam. I used to send spam to a mailbox on my hosting server but got tired of deleting hundreds of messages every day so now I have the server delete anything marked spam. I still get a few through to Outlook, but those go to junk mail. The biggest problem I have there is that Outlook is too aggressive. I have to look at the junk mail before deleting because legitimate messages do end up there. Akismet does a good job on the blog, but I delete several hundred spam comments from Akismet every day, and there are always a few that slip through. That's why I moderate the first comment on every commenter. Edith,

I've never taken the time to read anything about spam because it really does piss me off and cause me to waste precious time deleting it from my in-box.

I have the <a href="http://co.mments.com/ target="_blank"> co.mments site</a> bookmarked to try it out but haven't signed up yet. If you try it, let us know how it works. Dan,

Comments need to be genuine. It would be cool though if anyone knows of a comment aggregating service that will show me all of the comments I have made all in one place. I read a lot of great blogs and try to comment when appropriate. If there was a tracker out there that would be a good service. I agree with Philip. Comments need to be genuine.

Just think of the time it takes to visit 100 blogs, read enough to respond appropriately, and write a meaningful comment. Anyone who would do that at the prices quoted for commenting would be making pennies an hour.</p> Right.
