Another Blogger Gives More Than He Receives

by Mike Sigers

Two friends

Well it looks like another blogger has joined the ranks of those who give more than they receive.

Today I learned a new word courtesy of Liz Strauss of Successful Blog fame and fortune. Her post about blog tipping transported me gently over to Business Blogwire and another post about blog tipping, written by blog friend Easton Ellsworth.

Without a thought about losing any readership, without a thought about link leak, without a worry about what might happen, Easton tipped his readers toward 3 other blogs ! OMG !

What’s next ? Are bloggers gonna link back when someone links to them ? Are they gonna use internal links with reckless abandon ? Are there any repercussions to be suffered from this atrocious malady ?

You can freakin’ bet there’s repercussions ! They’re called friends ! You’ll end up with some if you aren’t more careful with your linking. Beware or be friended. It’s your choice.

Oh, by the way, this seems to be along the same lines as a post I recently did about Links, Trackbacks and Pings.

Please don’t link to that post…I’m afraid it might spread.

PS – I’m claiming link leak as my phrase…unless you can show me that someone’s already used it.
