eHow News: Contributors will be Compensated for eHow UK site earnings!

Yes you read the headline correctly, eHow contributors will be receiving compensation for their cloned UK articles.  eHow just released a video blog explaining the details. I actually had to replay it a couple times to make sure I had heard it correctly.  Contributors that were affected by the cloned UK site will receive compensation for the issue with their January earnings.  This payment will be received in early February. 

This is great news for contributors and especially good news for those with large article libraries and those who have been contributors for a long period of time.  I expect some of these "bonuses" will be quite significant since the creation of the UK site dates back to April 2009.  This will be an interesting development to say the least - stay tuned!
