Internet Bottom Feeders

|

I rarely hold back when talking about the scum of the internet. Spammers and scum sucking domain squatters are all at the top of my list of people who deserve a scarlet letter. Well, add to the list useless bloggers.

What do I mean by a useless blogger? Like a domain squatter, it is someone that adds nothing good, fun, or useful to the internet and yet takes up an inordinate amount of space. For instance, a blog that is optimized for adsense, but has no content that is human readable. The purpose is to get a good pagerank which drives traffic to their site, and hope that some poor sot clicks an ad. The whole purpose is to make money without offering a service. Just do a search for Viagra if you want to see many many examples.

So why do I bring this up? Well, it seems some guy, Michael Wong, visited me asking to exchange links with his useless blog. I checked out his site, and it was empty. EMPTY! Why the hell would I blogroll an empty site that has a single post that said

Even though there's no content now, there will be-once I build up enough incoming links.
Hello! I think you've got that backwards! I visited it again today and people are actually exchanging links. I'm not sure why. He also did add some content that had a lot of words, but didn't say anything. Oh, he also has some ad links, the most important part of a useless blog.

Having said all of that. You might think that I'm not going to link to his site. Well, you would be wrong. In the end, I did decide to give him his precious link:
Asshole

I just went and checked his blog and he didn't give you a link back...

LOL!


You know I checked it out and saw that he has added some content (not what I'd call good, but it is unique) and he also, for now, removed his ads.

So I was thinking about taking back what I said. But then I saw this post where he was practically encouraging bloggers to link spam other blogs' comments. So I take nothing back.
