Cite your Sources
July 5, 2012 1 Comment
Also, speaking of the HT or perhaps I should say, the demise of this common internet courtesy, it is amazing for me to see how few still cite their sources. One does all the hard work, you find the stuck away article/post, blog it, and suddenly it’s everywhere, without a tip o’ the hat (for those who are not so blog savvy, that simply means an acknowledgement to someone for bringing something to the blogger’s attention). Ladies and gentlemen, it still is considered good netiquette when sharing a link or news item to give a HT to the person from whom you learned of the item. Please.

I think you are very right on that point! People should have the courtesy to thank those who do all the hard work for them.
