All It Takes to Be A Biblioblogger is an RSS Feed And a Few Rants

So really, shouldn’t there be more of us?

I really have no idea who Michael is talking about here. Wish he would elaborate further.

“Now, back to the the point about originality. Some folks out there (you know who you are and so does everyone else), have decided that in place of being able to write their own content, they can also just copy and paste the work of others on their own sites. Once they do this, they slap a title on it and hit “publish” and voila, they have another post, which will drive more traffic to their site. In short, all they’ve done is turn their so-called blog into an RSS Feed or Aggregator. They have co-opted and sometimes even plagiarized someone else’s content so that they can get more hits, which will drive up their ranking on the Biblioblogs site. Some sites have even resorted to having multiple authors so that they can have more than one person scouring the feeds and so that they can both re-post content. Some sites, however, maintain but one author, which makes me wonder if they just sit around checking the Feed Reader all day waiting for whatever’s next to come down the pipeline.”

See T. Michael Halcomb’s post, you know, since he hasn’t blogged on theology in forever. Gotta be that working on earning a PhD at an accredited evangelical school institution thing.
