Of course it isn't for the "lazy" blogger. It's for the blog spammer, and there's money in them thar hills.

Oh, and by the way, mesothelioma.

I thought it was for 'adsensescrapers' or whatever them cowboys wanna be called. Yaknow, the ones who grab RSS feeds and pour RSS ads everywhere.

Perhaps a more collaborative approach is in order? Wouldn't mind seeing the results myself (would the computer be listed as coauthor? binary ghostwriter?)...

Reminds me of the novel, Galatea 2.2, by Richard Powers, as well, which I still need to finish, but found fascinating...

dontclickme is right now about 90% BoingBoing. I'm sure Cory and the Boingers would be interested in this...

What could they do about it though? And isn't there an ad-free boingboing out there called Boingboing lite or somesuch?

Oh and love the link Pips.
