Comments on: Akismet Failing http://www.kieranoshea.com/2007/10/28/akismet-failing/ A little spot on the web all about me, my work and my life in general!

The fact you have linked to a website you like/run/have something to do with is almost irrelevant. I'd also like to point out that I never elect not to publish comments that don't agree with what I say. The only time I wouldn't publish a comment is if someone was attacking me or anyone else in a personal way rather than with reference to my article. This has never happened and thus I have never not published a comment from a reader. Where have I said that the person paying is always right? I would have thought my acute interest and support for free and open source software would counter that idea for a start....

Many bloggers remove dissent and tell their conscience it was spam! I've read a number of your posts and found stuff of interest, but no link to your portfolio of web design which I would be interested to look at. I also question your wisdom in subscribing to the view that the person paying is always right - morally objectionable and when it come to the www results in some terrible sites. Back to the initial question - I've linked a local non-profit website with, what I guess, is a keyword; but I've spent 20 minutes looking and considering your site. Will we have a dialogue or will you bin this and move your tally to 52,287... Is this spam?
