Mark Cuban writes about spam blogs created on blogspot.com. I agree, with Cuban, Google needs to do something about this! Also, Tag Spam.

This is going to get some mainstream attention soon, last week I did an interview with a reporter at the Wall Street Journal on blog spam. I talked with him specifically about Blog*Spot and how Google isn’t doing anything to help curb it.

I believe the article is coming this week.
