There's an awful lot of splogging going on out there--little bits of this blog--and thousands of others--are being picked up and recycled as bits in utter crap. J eff Jarvis has a good post on this and some links out. His (wise) conclusion: " Google needs to both fix Blogspot and share its secrets for ignoring blogspam."

Chris Pirillo, Dave Winer, Tim Bray, Dan Gillmor, Allen Tsai weigh in as well.

I like the Russ Beattie approach--cut off their AdSense $$.
Russ sez: "It should be very clear, if you create a site that?s created solely to harvest links to generate traffic for advertising, then you get to be sued for damages."

Arrghhh.
