Tom Coates has an interesting take on the consequenses on the Blogger/Google deal. He thinks the deal will turn marketing and public relations companies onto weblogs in an attempt to get us to flog sodas and sneakers. I can see how this could happen, but as I commented at his site I doubt more than a handful bloggers will be approached. I mean most bloggers have less than a hundred visitors a day, so why would you want to spend money on them? Most bloggers write for themselves and don't get linked to or mentioned in articles, so unless you're on the so-called A-list you probably needn't worry about taking a moral stance against advertisement on your weblog. However, the emergence of something like Project Blogger might prove me wrong.
