As you said, sleazy but not in violation of any standards I know of.  This would also make more sense than an arbitrary "blacklist".  I\'m not one to jump to conclusions, but I will certainly keep my eye out and let you know if I see any such patterns.  I read both your site and Engadget on a daily basis and come to your site specifically because I will not get the same kind of repetition I get from bouncing back and froth between Engadget and Gizmodo.  If there is any truth to this, it should be noted and corrected.  You deserve some recognition for your hard work.</div>\

The fact is, you can\'t copyright the idea of covering something. In some ways, credit and links are all just a nice "hat tip" (as they say) anyway. But, what concerns *me is that OhGizmo is tkaing up the issue in public (but seems very nice about it) while the forum responses from the other sites have been pretty sarcastic and rude.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-1756446" class="dsq-comment-message">Well this is mighty interesting. I started reading Engadget 2 years ago. Yep, right from the beginning. Unfortunately, since I started blogging for Weblogsinc, I haven\'t had much time to read it anymore...<br>But I have to say a few things, of course, in defense. Now I have never met Ryan, Peter, Marc, etc. I have spoken at length with a few Weblogsinc people, and every single one of them was above board. Weblogsinc has been the best company I\'ve ever had the honor of working with, and I\'d wager any blogger currently working with them will tell you the same-- from the published authors to the stay-at-home moms.<br><br>I can tell you from my personal experience that sometimes, in the fog of blogging, the source of sources will pass us by. I\'ve been burned by tips that seemed to link to the origin, but just linked to their blog, trying to get hits.<br><br>Do we link to each other? Yes, it\'d be stupid not to. But do that too much and we lose Google juice, because they can just say we\'re a link farm.<br><br>Keep this in mind: there is no Big Brother when it comes to Weblogsinc. Calacanis gives us nothing but "be true, be real" all the time. Seriously, the guy does give a damn about credibility. I don\'t know what\'s been going on with your particular situation, except that I\'d bet between the volume of posts and bloggers running around (and no real central authority, as is our nature), the links have slipped through the cracks.<br><br>This could be a matter of perspective. Or it *could* be a massive conspiracy. I\'m not sure to what end, as it would be detrimental to our blogs overall to treat any level blog this way...<br><br>So I apply the Judge Judy rule, if it doesn\'t make sense, it probably isn\'t true. What\'s more likely, that GW Bush arranged for the Taliban to fly planes into the towers (yet he\'s an idiot anyway???), or that some nutcases decided to go nuts? Is Engadget involved in a cover-up program of blogging billions proportions, or are they humans, prone to screwing up on an individual basis? I\'ll let everyone else be the judge.<br><br>I read your blog though... once in a while...</div>\
