METAL GEAR SOLID 4: FRANKIE COMPLAINS ABOUT BLOGS STEALING...

di Frankie (03/02/2008 - 14:09)


WTF: I'm on N4G with the most popular story of this weekend?!
Of course no, a user ripped my news just after I digged it...


I make this blog for fun and I actually I started it just for an article I'm writing about memetics applied to the blogosphere.
Yesterday I posted the news about Kojima complaining about the capacity of BD and I    digged it  (I got first time stamp) then...  other blog like this, this, this and some others sites took my news and repost without any credit...

But maybe it's just me and of course all these bloggers read Japanese and browse "famous" Japanese blogs like Hatimaki hunting for news... anyway the editor of   Playstation Beyond even credited the original blog for making the interview and he (like N4G site) also reposted the one year old Xbox360 18 discs box set prank)! Funny that no one understood that the Japanese title in the scan  reads clearly that  this interview comes from the Japanese magazine Weekly Famitsu that in these weeks is celebrating the 1000th issue  released (I didn't point this in the post since I tough it was pretty obvious...)!
At the end memes spread with or without proper credits! This is good!
