Google Blogoscoped performed an interesting
experiment using a search URL to bring up random blogs hosted by Google’s Blogspot, then evaluating those sites. Any
auto-written site was tagged a splog, andy any blog with original writing was tagged as a normal blog. The result? 30
of 50 randomly generated blogs were splogs. A small sample, and not scientific, but eye-opening nonetheless.
Blogger.com, which operates Blogspot, has soaked up a lot of criticism for failing to crack down on rampant splog.
