Thanks for this. I was about to write a comment dissing Mashable for this. Also, please consider doing it more often. Mashable rarely links to the original source (if at all), many times I have to Google to get more information; an extra step that can be easily avoided. Its in good form to link the original source.

We link regularly to the original source, I'm sorry if it's not as visible, but I assure you we do regularly. The exception are ones coming in the form of company announcements, but even then we often link back to their blog posts. I'll try to make it more visible in the future.

  OK, I should have said "from my experience". That was my experience most of the time when I was subscribed to mashable RSS, most of the time posts were deep linked to more mashable posts, instead of original source. It was a quite bit frustrating. Anyways, I just checked the last couple of post you guys had they all seem to link to the source. The fact that you come here to reply to readers opinions, clearly means you guys care. That's good enough for me. Thanks.
