I follow a lot of blogs and news sites via an RSS feeder. Lately I have noticed that certain posts pop up in the wrong places. I’m seeing WordPress news popping up on game design blogs – posts written by someone other than the site owner.

I admit that I have actually been thinking that the problem was my RSS reader – I have even been looking into getting a different reader, one that actually worked… but… today it struck me. All the posts that are “out of place” are on WordPress hosted blogs!

So basically what WordPress is doing is putting their own news about WordPress updates and conferences into other peoples RSS feeds! I am very happy that I decided on hosting my own blog, instead of using their hosting service.

I would get so very P***** if someone posted news into my feed.

On a more personal note – I am currently sick, resulting in the low posting rate on my blog Hopefully I will be able to pick up the pace soon.
