Bloggapedia Syndication

One of the major blog catalog services, Bloggapedia, is teaming up with some other companies to offer syndication of blogs. I signed up mine, so if you're interested in this sort of thing, you can watch for The Wordsmith's Forge, Gaiatribe: Ideas for a Thinking Planet, and Hypatia's Hoard of Reviews to appear in that format. This is the Bloggapedia text on the topic:

What is syndication and what does it mean for me and my blog?

Essentially, it means there are websites out there that would like to offer your blog content for download on devices like smartphones and e-readers, for a small fee. Because these websites are looking for the best of the best in blog content, they've partnered with Bloggapedia If you choose to allow us to syndicate your blog you'll receive a 30% royalty on the profit from the syndication of your blog once the submission of your blog listing is approved.

Whenever someone downloads your blog content onto their device via Bloggapedia's syndication service, we'll pass on 30% of Bloggapedia's revenue from that sale to you! Payments are made quarterly; minimum payout $25. Funds will accrue in your account until the minimum payout amount is reached.</span></span>

I got info on this as well, not sure I want to do it. You'll have to let me know what you think about it. I like the idea of getting money from my writing, tho I'm not sure I'm ready to expand it that far yet.
Okay, I'll try and remember to post updates if this amounts to anything.

Me, I'm used to writing for money. Blog syndication is a way for me to make more money (potentially) from things I am already writing. The efficiency of this appeals to me greatly.
