I normally have no issue with someone using an affiliate tag to link to a book. Generally if they give an honest recommendation I think they deserve the affiliate bonus for the effort.

The author of this "blog post" on the other hand did not even bother to disguise his straight-up advertisement. The blog only has one post which exists to sell you Steve Job's biography!

Flagged for being flagrant affiliate marketing spam.

The guy does mention that it's his first post as a blogger. I checked his profile and he is on blogger since 2007. Probably it's a genuine effort, probably it's spam!

I liked the post anyways, premature but looked honest!
