Today I’ve noticed many posts concerning TechCrunch’s Michael Arrington calling Robert Scoble on his decision to place advertisement on his blog.
Was this post expressing a valid concern about “financial conflict of interest” or simply a tongue-in-cheek post that has more to do with link baiting?
Link baiting I say.
Besides, it’s not the financial ties that we can clearly see on a site that we should worry about. It’s the hidden ties that should concern us.
