This is not a splog

This is not a splog, but rather a weblog that we'll use to demonstrate some of the features that are typical today of splogs.

Splogs are "fake" weblog sites that have been set up to carry paid advertisements, promote affiliated web sites by increasing their PageRank, and to get new sites noticed by search engines. The content included in the splogs is typically random nonsense text, text plagiarized from other websites or content hijacked from other blogs. Most of these splogs are created and maintained automatically.
