We’ll be cooking our own food in restaurants next! Or making our beds in hotels!

Essentially a free newspaper is going to pay bloggers and then use some of the content in their newspaper. Fabulously simple remodeling of the whole process.

My recommendation to people is, “Maintain your own web presence. Keep control of your own Internet identity.”

Providing your content to other sites like MySpace, Facebook etc is all well and good but where will they end up? None of us knows. Use these sites and share your ideas and opinions but keep hold of your own web presence as well.

It is also worth remembering that the majority of the world’s population don’t use social/business network sites or use RSS feed readers. I know, unbelievable isn’t it?
