The arguement about whether somebody makes money seems a bit spurious.

Most of the blogs on pfblogs com/org seem to run Adwords (eg this very site)….Seems a little bit hypocritical to condemn someone for running ads when their own site runs ads.
I have one Amazon ad to a big I recommend, howver i don’t won’t Adwords appearing on my site advertising dubious products

Also Joshua K it seems a bit petty to try & get people to harrangue Michael Kimsall. We all have better things to do….yes?

He’s made an error of judgement but who hasn’t.

What do you think?

JLP – You know your feed is still on PFBlogs.com, right? I’m assuming you don’t mind then?

You may also want to throw http://www.w-street.com into the mix!

I think Michael made an error in judgement putting the ads on and he’s done everything he can to fix things. There are lots of similar type thefts (the reason why I only have excerpted feeds in the first place) where the thief can’t be found and you have no recourse.

I forgot to mention, that doing a whois on the .com yields a pointer to kimsal.com and links to this http://fosterburgess.com/kimsal/

If you’re not happy about it, give him a call and let’m know btw, the law says you can’t call more than once per day and not after 8p or before 8a. Feel free to drop a letter in his virtual or postal mailbox.

Well, I think it would have been totally cool if he’d asked permission. Somehow, I’ve been overlooked.. I might not mind the links, and the whole article isn’t included. I think it would have been better if he’d used an AdSense revenue sharing concept

yeah thats a little bit iffy.. the wealthy blogger use to aggregate certain blogs, and I didn’t mind that at all. so far pfblogs.com isn’t bothering me too.. he made a note of the recent notices though on his development blog.

PF Advice,

The question is: where do you draw the line? If you let one person do it, then everyone will do it.

Adult ADD,

Yes, but just because it is a risk doesn’t mean you shouldn’t fight it when it occurs.

I agree with pfadvice. I know the risk of having an public RSS feed is that others have the
opportunity to use my feed to make money. I have the option of not using the RSS feed to
promote my site, it would dramtically reduce my site traffic, but I have that option.

Born Famous,

Yes, I know this person but they don’t want their identity known so we will keep it at that.

Thanks for stopping by.
