Feed Scrapers and Angry Bloggers

25 March 2007 One Comment

Bloggers even want a plug-in maker shot (a bloody joke, lad).

You now have WordFeed FeedWordpress (here), Elliot Back’s Autoblog (here) and WP o’ Matic (here). Whether you call them blog syndication plugins, atom/rss aggregators or scrapers or whatever, they can handle the job easily for free and you magnet automatic rabid feedback from the bloggers who own the feeds, too!

I tried FeedWordpress just to see how it works and viola! a hate mail arrives. I didn’t even know my test blog address but somehow, Technorati was quick.

I mean, people can get mad if their feeds even reach Google Reader, Netvibes, Pageflakes, etc. So modify your feed settings. This is just the beginning of autodiscovery.
