It is actually very similar to that, just repeated dozens of times with several alternatives in a single article. The only reason to use the software is if you plan on doing it many times over to the same work, otherwise, you're just wasting time…

Hmm…The whole concept of spinning is interesting. I mean, people can spin their articles without using the software, but it makes it easier and faster to do. This kinda reminds me of high school. We would have to write down questions and answer them. We, of course, had the book to look for the answers. For most classes we couldn't copy the answers exactly as they were written in the book, we had to write down in our own words, so what a lot of students would do spin the answers by replacing a word or two or rearranging certain words, etc.

What makes it even worse is that a lot of the "translated" spam is actually "spinning" spam. The reason is the synonym substitution is so bad that it can't be separated from poor translation.

Thanks for this report. I hadn't heard of spinning software, but I can clearly see how it would be valuable to spammers and people hoping to punch up their Google juice. Frankly, it makes me sick that people stoop to this level.
