Columbia Business School has a blog
Here, and you'll find economists Glenn Hubbard, Frank Lichtenberg, and "CBS Blogger." Here is one post "Blogging Means Business." Columbia Business School has many great economists, let's see if they are good enough to solve the free-rider problem with most (not all) group blogs.
Elsewhere from the world of business, here are search engine futures, thanks to Michael Foroobar for the pointer.

Hadn't thought about free riding problems on group blogs. Can advertisers be selective in who receives the revenues if they advertise on a blog? That might help.

Are direct profits(after paying the host server etc.) from blogs already large enough to worry about this? I was under the impression the main profit was in name recognition, which I suppose doesn't have the free rider problem.

I am strongly of the belief that Tyrone is a free riding blogger, the bastard!

Maybe you could allocate profits to blog contributors based on the number of comments responding to their posts.
It's easy to attribute, time consuming to fabricate, and a good proxy for the number of page-visits, which ultimately generates revenue.

Does it have an RSS/Atom feed? Can it be a blog without one?
(I think it might be a portal!)

Yeah, no RSS feed that I could see. Sheesh, they actually expect me to visit their website to read their posts?

聽說在國外淘一輛中古車非常的容易，到處都是，真想有一輛自己的車，哪怕是二手車也行。這樣就不用受聘于租車公司了。有這方面信息的請email我。
