I also had that website in my links. I still do. The person from that website said in THEIR comments: "I see you have the video on your blog. Could you please give us a hat tip???" And I had their link up on my blog, and they didn't have mine on there's, and then they TELL ME to give them a hat tip??? <br /><br />Needless to say, I never commented on their website again. I considered pulling the link off my blog, but I didn't because I think they have a good site.

And then I thought, what if you hat tip someone and they are hat tipping someone? Can't you get into some infinite hat tip loop or something? I was hat tipping someone, and they were hat tipping someone, and they were hat tipping someone, and...<br /><br />And then I realised, that everyone gets everything from somewhere...unless you write it yourself! <br /><br />An example: if someone has a youtube I like, and I put it on my blog, why should I hat tip the blog I saw it on, and not the guy who actually made the youtube? And why should I even hat tip HIM, if he uploaded it from somewhere?<br /><br />I think hat tips are ridiculous.Big Danhttp://bigdanblogger.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7594366310437242857.post-11157547325529789282010-03-27T22:30:04.259-04:002010-03-27T22:30:04.259-04:00Pentagon Pundits - Blinded By The Right
