"Lawsuit hits home for bloggers"

In one of the first legal battles involving bloggers, Aaron Wall, who runs SEOBook.com, is being sued by Traffic-Power.com for defamation and publication of trade secrets that were allegedly posted on his blog. The kicker is that much of the content in question was not posted by Wall at all, but by readers in the comments section of his blog. The lawsuit will be an interesting test case in a realm that has largely avoided legal actions thus far."
