Disclamer: Akismet is good
One can decide that I hate Akismet. It’s not so. Akismet is a great system developed by the great programmers, and I highly respect it.
However, I think that the idea of a centralized database doesn’t work. Time to time, I write about the problems in the blog. And obviously, I refer to Akismet as it is the main player in this field.
Most likely, when I write “Akismet”, I just use the short word instead of the long phrase “the idea of a centralized database to filter comment and trackback spam”, and I don’t want to offence the Akismet developers.
