  Anticipating the web-site not being able to take the load is why I linked to Boing Boing (also the slightly less provocative title). The thing I mind about titles and links being changed (which probably is in fact a good idea) is the common additional implication the titles and links intentionally broke guidelines, were malicious, or ill-concieved. But I do get the complaint that Boing Boing is sort of making hey of their own failure in reporting when they promoted this story without any investigation on their own part.

    > is the common additional implication the titles and links intentionally broke guidelines, were malicious, or ill-concieved I'm not sure what you mean, but if you think the comments I've been posting when changing urls or titles are unfair, I'd appreciate suggestions for rewording them. The more specific the better.

      Not your comments, just the occasional comments snarks of others (sorry, I don't actually have a specific example at hand). Your comment is actually helpful (mentions a change has been made, explains the decision, and even mentions the original URL).
