    Hello,

    Maybe this is not directly google related, but this is something the google people would like to investigate about IMHO.

    Check this very strange page:
    http://www.linkiewinkie.com/

    It scans every blog's rss and xml feed with the speed of light. It is getting my feeds even before technorati and pingomatic and other services.

    What do you think this is? I blogged a little about it calling it to be an FBI honeypot because of their strange DNS settings, read my post or go directly and digg this story :D

    Comments, suggestions?
    Thanks in advance, Ruslan

    Haha, it's a very good idea. Too bad it's an experiment. Can't see the owners trying to make any money out of it.

    Yeah, they seem to love my RSS feed, their bot is constantly hitting it. As far as receiving traffic from the site, have not noticed any. However, I have not written a post about it, nor linked to it.
