The evolution of spam continues.
As bloggers fight spam with Akismet, comment moderation and captchas, spammers exploit a new technique to grab eyeballs for their splogs — spamming Technorati by selecting top 100 blogs as their “favorites.”

This allows them to show up on high traffic (Technorati) blog pages without having to be approved by the blogger.
