After indepth analysis and untold sums of shareholder cash, researchers at HP have determined that the most-read webloggers aren't necessarily the ones with the most original ideas.
According to Wired, researchers at HP, using "newly developed techniques for graphing the flow of information between blogs .... have discovered that authors of popular blog sites regularly borrow topics from lesser-known bloggers -- and they often do so without attribution."
Wow! You have to wonder if these guys read newspapers or watch TV news. Since when have journalists ever given attribution for leads on stories? Why would weblog publishers behave any differently?
