BLOGGING: Hypertextually

December 2nd, 2007 by Susan


Very interesting post, Bloggers Ignoring Link Semantics, at Google Blogoscoped .Com on the use and ignoring of links on weblogs:

You can see it all the time on commercial or amateurish pages: the “click here"-syndrome of funny link text. We all should know better and give links a meaningful text, one that would also be a valid title for the document you are taking your unassuming reader to. And yet some who should know about link semantics (bloggers, that is) still use words like “Permalink” or “Permanent Link to this entry” to point to a static page which is not about to move its location.

And a response post to it here.
