Vince Harris over at Too Conservative has just been BVBL’d (beev-eld for pronounciation), and it also seems hacked.
Opinions aside, it seems as if there is a concerted effort regarding the tabloid blogs to (a) expose them and (b) weave the Elvis theme into it in response to the Black Velvet Bruce Lee meme of hacking away anonymously or pseudonymously at personalities.
Now it’s pretty well known that hits don’t tally into visitors, which has been a common complaint regarding some blogs self-promoting themselves into stardom. All this having been said, there is an interesting perspective here regarding that phenomenon of bloggers regulating bloggers.
I’m not going to start speculating as to whether or not TC deserved it, nor am I going to smack around Velvet Elvis for being a pseudonym. But I’m starting to wonder whether or not we’re experiencing the front end of a concept where some bloggers are finding their niche watchdogging the blogs.
No thoughts so far, other than it’s a development Virginia blogs should keep an eye on.
