Google Says FU to Blog Comment Spammers

Writing on Micro Persuasion, Steve Rubel sums up a percolating rumor which points to Google’s pending announcement it will kill weblog comment spam in it’s tracks. Through the simple application of code by bloggers and blog software publishers which informs Google robots not to follow/index certain pages (blog comment pages), links in blog spam, which spammers use to move up their position on search results pages, will become useless and, over time, blog spammers will realize the pointlessness of their scum sucking ways.
