Comment Spammer Not Sufficiently Clever

Our comment spam filter is smart enough to have flagged the following item:

There are so many reasons for nonprofits to blog that it’s hard to boil them down to a few, but you’ve
done a great job. The key to all of them — the nugget of information I think all nonprofits should
take away from your post — is that a blog is about connecting very intimately with the unique audience
you’re trying to reach. It’s so much more than a traditional website like this

which functions largely as a “billboard” for information. A blog is a place where you can create a
community that centers on exactly the issues you want to discuss, with the people you want to have
a discussion with. It’s like throwing a big dinner party where all the people are interested in exactly
the same conversation as you!

So the spammer has apparently 1) seen the dot-org in our URL and 2) done an automated WordPress spambot.

I’m glad to say that Akismet, the spam filter that comes with WordPress, is working nicely in this case.
