Terry's right. I try and credit anywhere/one I see an article I include here, unless I've already nabbed it firsthand from the site and put it in my links compendium file. Obviously, I am not concerned about people stealing links from me, but I think it's bad form to swipe and not credit. Despite what some people think.

I don't know about dishonest, but it certainly doesn't feel like something that should be done -- and let's face it, since so many people read the same community of blogs, it's transparent and I know I notice and have a little niggle of hmmm... about the blogger when I do. And why not do something that takes minimal time but shows respect to people whose blogs you enjoy?

I especially enjoyed The Return of the Reluctant's take because he dishes the dirt.
