- sbierwagen 14y ago"Blogspam" is slang used to refer to a specific rule on HN, rather than a literal description of content. http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html Please submit the original source. If a blog post reports on something they found on another site, submit the latter.
- stdbrouw 14y agoSo if a post "adds its own content to the mix" then it can't be blogspam, innit?
- darylteo 14y agoIt's to mitigate people linking to the same story 10 times. However, if the additional content is noteworthy, then you could link to it on HN, but make the title accordingly specifying that it is the opinion of the writer, and not the original source, that is what the reader should be considering.
- stdbrouw 14y agoFair point.
