urg on GardenSAlley.com (was Weed free garden anyone?)
"Bob Hobden" wrote in message ... "David Rance" wrote Janet wrote: I have just taken a look at GardenAlley dotcom. Like gardenbanter,it's a website which acquires posts from urg to populate its website. But there the similarity ends. Unlike gardenbaneter, Garden alley makes no mention of usenet m uk.rec.gardening, or the fact the material comes from elsewhere. They have in fact renamed urg's content "Gardening in the UK- yet another gardening in the United Kingdom forum" In which case it's a good thing that the weekly "Welcome" message states clearly that this is uk.rec.gardening. Maybe I'll alter the intro to make it even clearer! ;-) This is bad! It will make people think twice before posting to this and other Newsgroups. I wonder if putting a legal property rights line on ones signature will allow us to sue these thieving people? Could be a good earner. -- Regards Bob Hobden W.of London. UK If anyone is going to be paranoid about their posts being displayed elsewhere, don't write to 'Letters to the Editor' in local newspapers, because they get repeated in all sorts of places, AND on the internet. I regularly write to 1855 local newspapers all over the country to do with my ex Service Associations. They appear in all sorts of glossy local and national magazines :-)) which is just what I want :-)) Publicity for the Association I am writing about at the time. AND, beware being interviewed on local Radio as well, that will be recorded and repeated at other times. I know because I have held interviews on nearly all BBC Local Stations and responses have come in later when the interview/broadcast has been repeated. If you don't want publicity, take yourself OUT of the public eye ................... everywhere. Mike -- ....................................
