Who Are These Sploggers, Anyway?

An interesting post over at the Intelliseek blog about the growing problem of blog spam, written by Intelliseek employee Robert Stockton, who describes common behaviors and methods of this growing menace.

I'm not sure we need another word to describe them though. "Sploggers"? Ugh. But from a linguistic perspective, it's fascinating how words form so quickly in cyberspace.
web log > weblog > blog > blogging > blogger > spam + blog = splog > sploggers
