  I’ve blogged here for about 6 years. Lately the amount of spam comments is growing. Why is askimet not picking up really-easy- to-identify spam comments? It seems like the anti-spam software is getting worse. The spam messages are mostly links, with no significant or sophisticated text. Anti-spam software should be able to easily identify these spam comments. What’s going on? Are improvements in Askimet on the way? At my gmail account, I never get spam, so the task must be achievable.
