irrelevant and nonsensical

I see via Doug that the rather wonderful (at least from a DBA's viewpoint) Oracle-wtf has been replaced by spam. WTF indeed. APC of Radio Free Tooting fame remarks that this is likely because oracle-wtf was first marked as a spam-blog by google and then deleted. Googles test for spam blogs:

spam blogs ... can be recognized by their irrelevant, repetitive, or nonsensical text

hmm, a good job this site no longer relies on blogger then. Indeed it seems to me that at least part of the time the whole purpose of blogging is irrelevant nonsense, or at the very least its close relative irreverent nonsense.
