You might think this is a stupid question, but if i read some good article somewhere, can i just copy paste on my weblog and add [via] on the bottom of the entry, or would that get me in trouble???

Adam, right, but even through the irony there is a bit of a point that I think Jason is trying to make. When do via’s become useless and recursive?
pixelenator: I would imagine that most authors wouldn’t be too impressed with a wholesale copy and paste job. It’d be better to simply quote part of the article and then give the link to the full thing.

[Via]s are so annoying. Just link to whatever you want to and don’t worry about who found it first.
