more blog scraping

Paul Westbrook | 18 May, 2005 20:31

This is really annoying.  I noticed today that I had a new site that linked to my blog, according to Technorati.  I think that they picked my blog because I had a post that talked about light bulbs, and I guess that they are selling light bulbs.

But they are posting the articles that I have written on their site.  They are not doing this automatically, since their blog is running on Blogger.  They do have links to my blog, but the posts say that they are posted by "Ron".

They don't have any AdSense or any other ads on this page, so they are not trying to get direct revenue from the content.  But since this page does link to the page that actually sells the light bulbs, I think that they are trying increase their PageRank.

moblogging in pLog

This is very cool.  Some one wrote a moblog plugin for pLog.  Now you can create posts and upload images from a cell phone or from any email client.

This page has information on how to set this up.
