The Blogit Spammers

I don't know about you but I consider a comment such as "nice post" or "thanks for sharing" or a simple smiley, to be nothing more than spam (with some caveats). Not so much that I have anything against short comments but it seems to me that if someone leaves a comment such as "nice post" on dozens... Sign in to see full entry.

The scary world of the public Blogasphere

After seeing the Republican YouTube debate

How can a person not be very afraid? I don't normally comment on the political machinations of a country where I do not reside but there is no escaping the influence of the USA if one lives in Canada. The part that scares me is typical of all politics premised upon the democratic system. The average... Sign in to see full entry.
