web referencing @04:46 PM
here's a question:
blogs are built on the idea of linking to other web pages (although if you listen to the news these days, they are all journalists...)
so, when does a blog meme become //public knowledge// so to speak. for example, in typical scholarly work, I think the rule of thumb is that if you see an idea / thought / proven fact referenced in at least 3 other books, that more or less means the idea is in the domain of public knowledge and that you therefore don't really need to reference an author (although you certainly may choose to do so).
what is the weblog equivalent? if I see something posted 30 times, should I still feel disposed to reference where I found the link?
