That Don't Impress Me Much
You know, I'm not a country music fan. I was born and raised in the 'burbs of Vancouver, Canada and you won't catch too many wearing a cowboy hat around here, unless they're on their way to the handful of specified country bars in the city...but when I saw this...I thought of fellow Canadian Shania Twain's song:
"That Don't Impress Me Much"
...and I only know that song because our government institutes a Canadian content law that ensures a certain amount of what we see on TV channels and radio stations is Canadian content. :-)
Okay, disclaimer over. I was searching Technorati to see who was talking about Dr. Mike Woo-Ming's "Marketers on a Mission" and I found this.
Yep, that's a full automated "lift" of Mike's information page, complete with NO link to his website.
It looks like the owner, Andy Liu, often posts in an Asian language, so I can't read most of the characters...but come on, I can see that Mr. Liu has scraped some content of the Internet and doesn't even give credit to the source.
I don't know how much traffic Liu might be stealing, but that's just plain old sick.
That don't impress me much.

Hey Alice, you should add a nofollow tag to that link. I'm not sure which is worse, email spam or scrapers...
And thanks a lot! I can't get that song out of my head now :)
Good idea and it's done. Don't know if he has any stats on his Blogger blog, but hopefully he could see the clicks coming in. And hopefully, if he has a conscience, he'll do something about it.
That is very low! :(
Hey Alice - you've been tagged!
