Spam Blogs

Apparently spammers have now developed past comment spam and are now creating spam blogs. I'm trying to remember if I've heard of this before, but it seems new.

I was surfing through random Blogger sites and ran across several pages filled with repeating nonsense that all seemed to link to external sources, none of which I visited. This was kind of annoying, but not that annoying since there is no need to visit any weblogs you don't already know or haven't had recommended to you. I would guess it is giving blog hosting services plenty of unwanted information to store and format.
