  <description><![CDATA[Weblogs or blogs are an important new way to publish
information, engage in discussions, and form communities
on the Internet. The Blogosphere has unfortunately
been infected by several varieties of spam-like

  <description><![CDATA[Weblogs or blogs collectively constitute the Blogosphere, forming
an influential and interesting subset on theWeb. As with
most Internet-enabled applications, the ease of content creation
and distribution makes the blogosphere spam prone.
Spam blogs or splogs are blogs hosting spam posts, created
using machine generated or hijacked content for the sole purpose
of hosting ads or raising the PageRank of target sites.
These splogs make up the splogosphere, and are now inundating
blog sea...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Weblogs, or blogs have become an important new way to publish
information, engage in discussions and form communities. The
increasing popularity of blogs has given rise to search and analysis
engines focusing on the 'blogosphere'.  A key requirement of such
systems is to identify blogs as they crawl the Web.
While this ensures that only blogs are indexed, blog search engines
are also often overwhelmed by spam blogs (splogs). Splogs not only
incur computational overheads but also reduce...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The “memeta” project is developing a framework for studying
the structure and content of the blogosphere. We are
particularly interested in how metadata about blogs can be
discovered, extracted and computed, and how this metadata
can be modeled, represented and analyzed to provide new
blog related services.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Weblogs, or blogs, have become an important new way to publish information,
engage in discussions and form communities. Blogs collectively constitute 
the blogosphere, a highly influential and dynamic subset on the Web. The 
nature of their content and publishing infrastructure requires that they be
modeled, harvested and analyzed differently from the rest of the web.


We first propose a model for the blog graph that extends the more general 
web graph. The web is viewed as a graph G...]]></description>
