I totally agree with this article. By the way, has anyone tried Budweiser Light Golden Wheat? It's really quite good.

They're just now figuring this out? To the Romerocopter!

spam spam spam spam,
spam spam spam spam,
lovely spam! wonderful spam!
...

They're not really fake, they're more fraudulent, and so should be called "Frogs".

well, it depends on what they're flogging

// Flogging dolphin
Flogging bacon
Flogging Linux
Flogging Her

there is a difference

Welcome to the new age of spam several years ago

FFBOU

People still read blogs?

whiskeyinthejar: I totally agree with this article. By the way, has anyone tried Budweiser Light Golden Wheat? It's really quite good.

I don't know....is it good, or great?

What the hell is a "fake blog"?

You mean a page that calls itself a blog and is full of meaningless bullshiat and ads?

We already have a word for those, we call them "blogs".

I think the FTC is about to crack down on this and pay for promotion "blogging"

How is spammy formed? How consumer get inframatian?

/one for everything

Oh yes, I agree with you but has anyone tried the new giant slingshot from Acme? My friend, Wile E. Coyote, had some trouble with it at first, but I bought one recently and haven't had any trouble with it at all. In fact, it works great once you get the hang of it. Here's a link (new window) where you can buy one.

I, for one, suspect any piece of written material on the internet that uses exclamation points. It reeks of phoniness!

Suddenly, I could go for the taste of a cool, refreshing Dr. Pepper.

I keep hearing about payed shills and such but nobody will tell me how to get the job. Godammit.

The writer needs to be flogged.

See how many times you see the word "flog"

http://www.problogger.net/

i recently asked a colleague their opinion about content management systems. that i was thinking about setting up my own webserver, trying out different publishing platforms and whatnot.

'oh, well, i totally think you should check out problogger.'
'really?'
'yeah! with proper tagging, trackbacks and site optimization you can actually make money!'
'gtfo before i stab you with my kickass titanium spork i got from thinkgeeks.com, you amazon!'

/not a red cent.
//doesn't have a blog.

Oh like all the gaming review sites, right?

So all the pro whatever tech blogs will be shut down
/Looking at you Engadget and Gizmodo

Useful trivia: "flog" is British slang for "sell", often with the connotation of trying too hard to sell something crappy.

/So I'm getting a kick etc.

I drink the other major brand of beer, and I'm somewhat doubtful about Bud Light™ Golden™ Wheat™ being crisp, fresh and satisfying without filling you up. Can you be more specific? Don't make me charge up my laser! Shoop the whoop! LOL.

I would rather have a spam website like that which I can easily ignore because I don't fall for that crap, than spam in my inbox.

Besides, who ever clicks on ads for Acia or weight loss?

H3y guise, try our Canad1an pharm@cy!1! we now carry Priap1sm PLUS!

R1p her to shreds with your gigan+ic c0ck.

I used to work in black-hat SEO, so I'm getting a kick out of these replies...

/first time I can use that meme!

BizarreMan: Besides, who ever clicks on ads for Acia or weight loss?

Freely admitted, for research purposes. Sites like those came in handy during pharmacology- figure out if it were physiologically possible for their claims to be true, how they would work, and how much would be needed to get the desired effect.

It's surprising what you can find- most weight loss/"colon cleanse" meds contain cascara, which can cause bloody stools. Oh yeah, by the way, it's a carcinogen.

You mean this 128 fl oz Tuscan Whole Milk isn't as great as the reviews said?

Alzheimer's what: I, for one, suspect any piece of written material on the internet that uses exclamation points. It reeks of phoniness!

Welcome to Fark the FLOG to extreme Liberalism!111?!?!!!%%

I'm sitting here enjoying a nice warm Sausage McMuffin with Egg and drinking a new McCafe coffee and wondering if there's any truth to the rumors that companies would put up blogs to tell you how wonderful their McGriddle breakfast sandwiches taste, or how crispy their Hashbrowns are, or even advertise their Big Breakfast meals that come complete with pancakes, sausage, eggs, and a small orange juice.

Big Breakfast doesn't come with OJ.

I heard that about you :)

I thought you were a believer. Someone who wanted to blog about our ideals.

Yes, first 6 pack was sunday, second was last night. Both were quite good. And I normally don't care for Wheat beers.

Agreed!

I flogged in the bathroom at work this morning...should I not have done that?

I've seen the fnords!

This is nothing new. Porn sites have been running supposed private amateur blogs for years.
