Spam blogs are way much different than spam mails, which is easier to detect, because of its unsolicited nature and the prime motivation of the spammers to push their products to unsuspecting email users.<br /><br />Spam blogs on the other hand is a completely different beast, and they are very different from each other too. They are the straight forward email spam style blogs which makes no attempt at pushing their 'generic' product to users.<br /><br />There are another type of blog which its sole point is to aggregate posts from another blog and republish it (mainly because they join contextual advertising network).<br /><br />And of course the 3rd group (which is quite controversial) is the CnP or one-liner blogger, which often copy and paste most of posts content (with or without citations, linkback) and publish them as if they wrote it themselves.<br /><br />No matter which group it belongs, it will be interesting to see whether this pattern of spams will continue to evolve.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2919582238396585126-986726332387840665?l=blog.fakapster.com' alt='' /></div>fakapsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04726978008691793031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919582238396585126.post-33734009494665464602007-02-01T17:23:00.000+08:002007-02-01T17:31:29.449+08:00fakapster has incorporated anti-splog measure in its operation.

Rest assured that I've moved the fakapster server on a different server now and fakapster has been hosted on 3 different server to provide greater reliability.<br /><br />The ping database is hosted on a different server too. Next, we will add Tag cloud to fakapster to reflect the most popular tags/category talked about in our little blogosphere.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2919582238396585126-7156741383301913482?l=blog.fakapster.com' alt='' /></div>fakapsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04726978008691793031noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2919582238396585126.post-38086938219730113672007-01-24T01:59:00.000+08:002007-01-24T02:03:23.360+08:00w00t, the long awaited fakapster blog has been launched!
