Why is Eduspaces closing?

Filed Under (Uncategorized) by James on 18-12-2007 and tagged



I am importing my eduspaces.org blog into edublogs.org. First I tried to import the eduspaces blog into another elgg site but that was not working so I imported the rss file for my blog that I could download from eduspaces to edublogs. The only problem is that most of the time I linke to videos etc. and Wordpress and Elgg do not do that in same way.

I wonde why eduspaces is closing. Maybe it is because the site has changed into beeing a rss feeder, I scanned throught the most recent blogs and most of them where from other sites. Some were blatant advertisments such as these two fake (I guess?) persons. This is spam:

Maybe this kind of rss feeding machine was causing some copywright problems and the site owners feared legal battle.
