The RSS Blog

News and commentary from the RSS and OPML community.

It appears that some of the sploggers have caught onto the chicklet generator and are abusing it. I mean who would subscribe to a splog anyway? The end result is that this is not gonna scale and I'm gonna have to reconsider making this available publicly. Any insight would be appreciated.

Update: It appears that recently a splogger has been creating thousands of blogs with the chicklet generator javascript code on their homepage. All the templates are exactly the same, so it's obviously one splogger. A quick calculation had him pegged at 7% of my bandwidth. As such, I've shut-off the chicklet generator. If you are using it (and you are not a splogger) and want to be re-enabled, then send me an email.
