- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoSame story reported from several sources: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2260840 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2260840 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2260848 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2260848 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2260863 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2260863 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2261231 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2261231 Further, you should link directly to the original source, except that in this blog post the URL is broken.
- MojoKid 16y agoUm no, the source is directly noted and link properly within text and in the source list of the article.
- RiderOfGiraffes 16y agoMaybe it's been fixed, maybe it was my browser, maybe it was a heisenbug, but when I wrote my comment I clicked on the "wrote in a blog post" several times, and each time got a "Bad URL" message. I've just tried again, and this time it's sent me here: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/finding-more-high-quality-sites-in.html http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2011/02/finding-more-high-qua... which I assume is what was intended. Fairy Nuff. My real point is that the blog post lunk to here offers nothing extra to the original from Google, and to quote http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html In Submissions ... Please submit the original source. If a blog post reports on something they found on another site, submit the latter. I could be wrong, but this submission just looks like blog spam. Can you elaborate on what you think the submission adds over the original from Google?
