Why do you care if he links to his blog or to the original sources?

You can't possibly be that anal.

You haven't been here long, have you? This is a pretty pedantic, nit-picky group.

Its not that. Its that he goes out of his way to ensure we visit his blog. Its a step forward to at least tell us what the link's about. Its still blatant hit chasing, and its annoying.

He doesn't want to give us information as much as he wants hits for his blog.
