Indeed Scott - when when one poses as an expert on so many topics but cannot even muster up any original thoughts, it makes the genuine seem suspect.
Listen, I've done it - I've read an article and got inspired to write on the same issue and I've used phrases and the very idea. It is a rare oversight when I do not quote a source.
To sit on networking sites and take discussions offered by professionals and post word for word on ones business blog as their own work has to be the lowest of unethical tactics I've seen from any business person online to date.
I just noticed another post with copy taken directly from USA Today. Gotta wonder what their reaction would be? for a biggie like that, it's probably not just plagiarism, probably also copyright infringement.
I'm not around as much as I used to be, I do though read topics. I am also a member of LinkedIn group(s) where copy taken from and when i read the post here I noticed the copy seemed familiar. I do not "police" the forum seeking issues.
