Is this a startling revelation or do I just have too much time on my hands? For those of you unaware of Akismet, it is Automattic’s comment spam killer. For those of you unaware of Automattic, it is the company behind Wordpress. And if you don’t know what Wordpress is, well then…

Was this coincidence planned? If that was the case, it wouldn’t be a coincidence I guess. Has anyone else noticed this? Probably not. Perhaps the creators classify comment spam as a karma ‘mistake’ on behalf of the spammer. Or perhaps I just need to get out of the house more often. Probably the latter.
