It's a bogger being a blogger

Voices emanate from whited sepulchre of wisdom
Tuesday, 10 April 2007, 12:29
TIM O'REILLY and Jimmy "Whackopedia" Wales have called for bloggers to stop boggering about and start behaving themselves.

They reckon a code of conduct is needed and an end to "phlegm wars" as fanbois erupt into incandescence at the drop of a pixel.

Apparently there's over 70 million bogs worldwide and a code is needed to ensure decent standards prevail. People think they can write any old twaddle in the bogosphere but the same laws of defamation apply to online diaries as they do anywhere else.

And it's a bit rich the founder of Whackopedia going off on one, seeing as they've made derogatory comments willy-nilly about the INQ and then withdrawn them without so much as an apology or an acknowledgement.

Bog off, Whackypedia! ยต
