unreferenced date May 2008 Blog scraping is the process of scanning through a large number of blog s, usually daily, searching for and copying content. This process is conducted through automated software. The software and the individuals who run the software are sometimes referred to as blog scrapers. Scraping is copying a blog that is not owned by the individual initiating the scraping process. If the material is copyrighted it is considered copyright infringement , unless there is a license relaxing the copyright. The scraped content is often used on spam blogs or splog s. Issues A blog scraper who gathers content that is copyright copyrighted material is considered in violation of the law. Blog scraping can create problems for the individual or business who owns the blog. Blog scraping is particularly worrisome for business owners and business bloggers. Scrapers can copy an entire post from an independent or business blog. The duplicated content will include the author s tag and a link back to the author s site if that link appears in the author s tag . However, most blog scrapers copy only a portion of the content that is keyword relevant to their splog topic. By doing this, the keyword relevancy of the scraper s site is increased. Secondly, by not scraping the entire post, any outbound links are eliminated which means their search engine ranking is not reduced. Additionally, scraped content can appear on literally any type of splog or RSS file format RSS fed spam site. This means an unsuspecting individual could find their creative or copyrighted material copied onto a site promoting pornography or similar type of content that may be offensive to the original author and his her audience. This may be damaging to the original author s reputation.

Scraping a chalkboard with the fingernails produces a sound which most people find unpleasant. The basis of this innate reaction has been studied in the field of psychoacoustics . The primate heritage hypothesis One explanation for the adverse reaction is that the sound is similar to the warning call of a primate . However, a study using Cottontop Tamarin s, a New World Monkey , found that they react similarly to both high pitched sounds similar to fingernails on chalkboard, and to amplitude matched white noise . In contrast, humans are less averse to the white noise than to scraping. ref name Highfield cite news publisher Vancouver Sun date 2005 11 14 page A6 author Roger Highfield title Study seeks root of noises that annoy us ref This technique was used to good effect in the Pink Panther Movie of 1976, the Pink Panther Strikes Again. A 1986 study used a tape recording of a three pronged garden tool similar to a garden fork fork being wikt gride grided across a chalkboard, which roughly reproduces the sound of fingernails on chalkboard. The recording was then manipulated, removing pitches at the extremities and the median. The results were then played back. It was determined that the median pitches are in fact the primary cause of the adverse reaction, not the highest pitches as previously thought. The authors hypothesized that it was due to predation early in human evolution the sound bore some resemblances to the alarm call of macaque monkey s, or it may have been similar to the call of some predator. ref name study cite web url http www.psychonomic.org search view.cgi?id 11185 title Psychoacoustics of a chilling sound work Perception and Psychophysics pages 77 80 publisher Psychonomic Society year 1986 author Lynn Halpern, Randolph Blake, & James Hillenbrand format ... this hypothesis. ref Cite journal journal Applied Acoustics title Scraping sounds and disgusting ... reflist 2 DEFAULTSORT Sound Of Fingernails Scraping Chalkboard Category Sounds by type fr Crissement ... more details

Earlier title screens often included all the game option s available single player , multiplayer , configuration of controls, etc. while modern games have opted for the title screen to serve as a splash page .
