Allan Jenkins has had it with fake and spam blogs hosted on Blogger and other free blog platforms.

He soon updated his post that his original outburst was somewhat emotionally driven by spam-filled results from a Technorati search.

Hey I hear you, I recently wrote about searches I did with 86% of the results being spam blogs. The most aggravating ones are the ones that look legit via a search, but once you visit them you realize they are link-farms.

This recently happend to me while doing some research for a client. I did a search for an industry term and found a result on a Blogger blog. The headline and synopsis looked legit. I visited the post and all still seemed well, until I saw that there were 50 others posts that day on a number of topics. Browsing around you could see that it was a link-farm with hundreds of topics and posts on a daily basis. Most of the content was pulled from other RSS feeds.
