It’s Freedom Friday. Please proceed to place your hands in a fashion perpendicular to the ground and wave them in a casual fashion.
Those of you who got that joke are experiencing side-splitting laughter. Those of you who don’t may comment to this post that I may laugh, point, and explain.
Although you still won’t find it funny….
Anyway, all joking aside…. I found yet another post to the Goldblogger site that fully explains why you should Make Sure You Have Permission To Syndicate Other People’s Feeds On Your Site.
Please respect other people’s content. Personally, I think RSS Equalizer is not a bad tool… used properly like over at the IM4Newbies site. But jacking people for their feeds when they post their express wishes for you not to?
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
I’m not involved in their discussion and I have no idea what went down, so I can’t take sides… but I can say… make SURE you have permission before you display other people’s feeds on your site. For most sites that allow it, there’s normally an indication… they see a win-win situation. For people that don’t want their feed displayed, sometimes it’s a bandwidth concern. Other days it’s a content concern – they, rightfully so, feel they should be able to retain control over their content.
But anyway. You didn’t come here for my lectures… you want some free tools, articles and news. And you want it, right now.
Well you’re gonna hafta wait until my next post! Nyah!
(See you in Five.)
