Bayesian Filtering for Blog Posts?

I recently was cruising around the Fog Creek Software website checking out the latest version of FogBugz as well as CityDesk and came across a very interesting feature that was part of the recent FogBugz release.  FogBugz 4.0 uses Bayesian Filtering to help filter incoming email into appropriate folders (read more) which sounds like a very nice feature. 

What would be cool is if this could be built into some sort of blogging engine, or content management system.  I always forget to set the categories when I’m posting my entries and going back and updating the assigned categories is something that simply doesn’t happen.  If my blog engine could do this for me automatically it would be super sweet!

I was thinking that would also be a good solution to comment spam. My original plan was to download the core Python libraries from SpamBayes and get them to work with CommunityServer. Ahhh, time is such a sweet thing when you have it. ;)

I had this on my personal lab. I created a spam filtering engine for outlook based on bayesian algorithms. It's fulley decoupled now, and I'm working in a extension to post comments that will evaluate each post. I don't have a time plan yet, but it should not take too long to release, I just have to finish all the nunit tests and some integration tests with cs.
