After my WordPress update half an hour ago to version 2.6.1, I checked the spam comments page to see how many spam attempts I had. Akismet caught 330 and had 132 in the queue (forgot to check the timeframe). Had I clicked on the originating links, I would be a pro in poker and other casino games by now spending day and night winning and – probably more likely – losing money, and I could have filled my iPhone with millions of silly ringtones.

To avoid any potential temptation during sleepwalking nights, I deleted these spam attack comments without shedding a single tear.
