Posting to a blog using Perl

I have written a small Perl script that shows how one can post via Perl
to a WordPress blog (or any blog supporting the same metaWeblog API)

http://johnbokma.com/mexit/2006/07/0...s-xml-rpc.html

Will show next week an example for Google.

If anyone has wishes regarding the above script let me know :-) (Like
posting automatically from a feed).

What?! You got an interview with Google? Cool.

A content spammer's delight.

I hope not. The idea of having an alarm-type clock running 24/7 and spewing
out feeds and excerpts upon arrival scares the cr*p out of me. What has the
Web come to? How will it ever be indexed? Only when diluted owing to such
tools will people lose hope and financial incentives. The Web will then
reach a darker age where small sites have little or no chance of earning
visibility.

Enjoy the Web while it's in its golden age. No tiered traffic and varying
tariffs. No sponsored ads and links in information discovery gateways (well,
not dominating them anyway). Better reliability among sources as well, not
to mention little duplicability.

The Net is being commercialised and its value goes rock bottom. The
borderline between original or bot-driven is rising too. Thanks to the most
widespread O/S, DDOS attacks and SPAM will continue to rise in terms of
volume, too. It's the only way for fraudsters and content spammers to thrive
in this game. The more filthy traffic, the better the dough.

Okay. 'Nuff ranting. *smile*

Best wishes,

Roy

PS - John, that phpBB spam is driving me mad. So much spam and so quickly it
floods in. And judging by the trend, nothing's getting any better. E-mail
SPAM doubled as well and my CAPTCHA got cracked last month.

Me too, but the more people do it, the more SEs have to find a way
around it.

What has the Web come to?

People want money for their work. I get sad to when people just copying
feeds to pages (or Usenet posts for that matter) make more money in a
week with their site then I will in a year when I put adsense on mine.
An entry on a walk takes me almost an entire Saturday, same for a
tutorial on installing Apache.

How will it ever be indexed? Only when
diluted owing to such tools will people lose hope and financial
incentives. The Web will then reach a darker age where small sites
have little or no chance of earning visibility.

That's already the case. People who write good stuff rarely have SEO
skills.

The Net is being commercialised and its value goes rock bottom. The
borderline between original or bot-driven is rising too. Thanks to the
most widespread O/S, DDOS attacks and SPAM will continue to rise in
terms of volume, too.

There we go again. Can you prove that with another OS this was not
happening? No.

Do you need Windows XP to comment spam? No
Do you need Windows XP to run a trojan? No
Do you need Windows XP to do a DDOS attack? No

PS - John, that phpBB spam is driving me mad. So much spam and so

Can unregistered users post? I do get some sign ups but they don't post
:-)

Yeah, e-mail spam gets less and less nice, it's now mostly attached
images and a bogus message to fck the learning filters.

And many companies are extremely slow when cleaning up spam. Google to
name one (I'll blog on that later today).

I am sure they can do that themselves. It's a matter of priorities. Most
users of Google Search are not affected by what's cooking now, so it's way
down on the list.

Google is like Microsoft, and Google Search is their Internet Explorer.

Judging by this analogy, Google's SE engineers took a vacation to Maui back
in 2001 and they will return when Yahoo gets a threatening market share and
momentum.

PS - do they have dark fibre in Hawaii?
