I really don’t get Reddit. The same tweet I shared here and on LinkedIn got taken down there for “self promotion”. OK fine Reddit, I’m going to take that as a warning that I should keep my distance.

It's become a lot of noise and not much signal anyway. Not what was really envisioned but what is these days anyway? At least in Tech!

Yeah you're right Molly … maddens me a bit I must be honest. I figured in this case it was because if there’s a link, you’re going to get users leaving for your site, which they don’t want.

The link however is the web the anchor with an href is the whole point of hypertext.

Isn’t it funny how even that has become taboo in some cases now?! Crazy stuff. It’s the best invention since the Internet though ha ha, it’s not going anywhere.

Oh it's not leaving it's just going in a different direction with a different horse pushing the cart which means it's really not going in any direction at all and will end up somewhere that none of us expect! There was a proposal by the EU I think to band linking on the web. Ha!

😆 True … I saw that proposal somewhere as well!!
