Josh from TimeForBlogging.com is asking the question what bothers you online? and then buckles up for a good old fashioned rant. He hits it square on, on every point about copycats, imitators and just plain plaigarists along with the plethora of Make Money Online blogs that never admit to earning a cent.

I only discovered Life Is Risky recently through a comment Susan left here, and I’m glad she did, because it’s an excellent blog.

What’s this all about?
