Someone mentioned it in the other thread- they just aggregate a bunch of everyone’s content, don’t contribute anything or comment, and sell advertising around it. I don’t mind people who comment on or build on the content, but refeeding and selling advertising?
Well, that is funny… Although they’re not doing much more than just syndicating RSS feeds. Looks like now one needs an RSS firewall to block content to syndication sites that don’t actually check content. :) CAPTCHA for RSS?
Hmmh, what’s so bad about a search engine, summing up stuff from several sites… ? I don’t see the problem in general. Okay, this site is comercial and very crappy.

But in general that has been/is nothing else than a huge blogroll with the articles.

Is it really stealing when they atrribute the article to you and your site and the link takes one to your site?

Well, he *is* Russian, so it’s gotta be late there… No doubt it’ll be interesting when he wakes up.

OMFG that is too funny. The best part will be when Sergey sees how long that has been posted on his own site. ;)
