Don't you find now that google is cramped with blogs that are written on behalf of large fashion companies wanting to catch in on the wave of seriously good content that has been posted by independent and noble young people who have gone out there to create something different. I see this blogging world dying soon - just like the way they shut down Napster, closed off Limewire, will eventually shut down Bit Torrents.... the price will be a little more palatable for consumers but it will just be big corporations using the bloggers to shill as we will be all too dumb to notice it. Because the lines will be so blurred. I could be fooling you right now... I have a License To Shill...
Surprisingly the first time I ever heard the word was when I was shilling my own product on StyleForum and they kicked me off. I didn't know what it meant so I got the definition below.

n : a decoy who acts as an enthusiastic customer in order to
stimulate the participation of others
v : act as a shill
