The selling of the Blogosphere

big push into monetizing its treasure trove of data collected about millions of blogs
SiliconValleyWatcher.com asks:
"Are Technorati and others, spying on the blogosphere? I don't think so, it is a public space after all. . . but it is a bit creepy.
A lot of blogs are semi-private, their authors are mostly talking with their friends and family, and the discussions are not intended for broad publication. "


Technorati has every right to make a living from its work, it shares a considerable amount of data it collects with the entire blogging community for free, and it is just one of many companies selling the blogosphere.
