Should Google, Yahoo, Mahalo, etc. ban affiliate links? (or "Will the FTC ban undisclosed affiliate links for us all?") (The Jason Calacanis Weblog)

Feb 29th 2008 7:58PM I loved the tramadol, discount pharmacy, and underwater blackjack links that Weblogs Inc. sold. http://www.threadwatch.org/node/6312

Other people sell snake oil...you sell cross border prescriptions, which is mildly more unethical.

Why is Greywolf's posts spanning so many blogs? (The Jason Calacanis Weblog)

Jun 19th 2007 7:05PM Automated content generation tools that are set up to repost his RSS feeds (or RSS feeds matching certain search queries). As the former CEO of Weblogs, Inc. I would think that you would have seen splogs reposting content before.

Google checkmates PayPerPost (The Jason Calacanis Weblog)

Is the Internet A Long Tail Ghetto ? (Blog Maverick)

Oct 30th 2006 11:49AM I would say that I am living proof that you don't need big money to do ok. I certainly started off as just about as long tail as one could be (while flat broke)...I turned down being officially published, VC funding, etc. and make far more than most people do.

Google tweaks formula to thwart landing-page con artists (BloggingStocks)

Jul 15th 2006 10:41PM Who pays most of these "fraudsters and criminals" pennies at a time? How about Google and Yahoo!

I think it is more criminal to blog ignorantly about an issue than it is to create a profitable low or no value site. At least the other guys are honest about the value of their content.

Does Google reward bad code? (Download Squad)

Mar 23rd 2006 11:32PM >I want the idea of the site I've created to be visible _exactly_ how I intended it to a wider audience. Writing good, valid, code allows me to do that...whether it pushes me up or down on the search engines is #2.

Guess it just depends on how far you want your content to go. Some people are more ambitious.

Nick Denton is not gonna sell Gawker (The Jason Calacanis Weblog)

Feb 8th 2006 3:08AM Really not that surprising of an addition IMHO. Also look how analytics companies still advertise on Google, in spite of Google giving away great analytics products. If you have reach people will pay because the potential gain to them is greater than the hurt to the industry in general.

SXSW to eTech, to PC Forum (The Jason Calacanis Weblog)

Mar 18th 2005 9:11PM > Had a great time because I have nothing to sell and could really just tell it like it is. hmm http://blog.sxsw.com/post.php?weblog_post_id=243
