Unacceptable and Fradulent Prize!

When I saw the Avatar of John Chow at the bottom of MyBlogLog widget, I wondered what the rambling dot com guru came to do on my blog here because I have not mentioned him in any reference in recent times on my Noni juice blog here.

So I did a curious research when I found a new title: "ThePrizeBlog" by his avatar, which has become a trademark in the blogosphere. My efforts yeilded the masquerade behind John's avatar as one "Brian Aldrich" on MyBlogLog.

I strongly felt it was an abuse to hijack the avatar of John's phograph, it may be a traffic bait, but it looks fraudulent and unacceptable to me. For me, I believe in originality and using another person's photograph to represent one's avatar was crass impersonation.

It is still alright if you perform a blog stunt like our good friend, John Cow, but this one by Brian has definitely gone beyond acceptable idolatory, should I say. I just checked John's blog and I did not find anything there about this chap.

Finally I am not too enthused to even dignify this guy with a visit to his blog because he has already put me off by this fraudulent impersonation. I wonder if John would ignore him too, or head for the courts. The best is to ignore him or report him to the MyBlogLog authorities to tell him to brig down his confusion called avatar.
