Patrick: Quit Linking To CDA Press

Editor Mike Patrick , CDA Press: When we had coffee at Java awhile back, you asked me if I had any problem with your linking to our stories. The online landscape has changed since then and we’re going to be doing some new things. Please stop linking to Press stories and photos, effective tomorrow.

DFO : bad form on 2 levels, mike. first, you can’t block a site from linking to you. secondly, you have no idea how much traffic huckleberries sends to your site via the links. however, i will stop using your photos. which is a loss for your photographers who get solid exposure from my site. effective tomorrow, i’ll stop posting your photos and would suggest that you put a note on them for ap purposes that the sr isn’t to use them — dfo

Patrick: Ever the gentleman, Dave. I should have expected as much.

Question: What do you think of this development?
