Seriously, these ethics need to be followed in the blogosphere.

and thanks everyonw for the inputs.

Um, how do you add a link to a picture in Blogger? A picture that I have, and would like to credit?

I tried to look for this online, all the html codes don't work.

I have personaly experienced, insult and use of blogs to vent out jealousy or enemity. This is wrong I feel. Blogs are a wonderful medium to express yourself and your creatvity. Negative things should be avoided here.

hmm...to follow ethicks on blogspere shows ur addicates....

Hah!! At last found a thread to my forum topic.

Hope you are back from office! Wating for some more points

The listings are very useful. Thanks for the tips.

@ALL

Recently I came across a very popular blog on Indiblogger itself. The owner posts a certain humorous variation of articles and till now I was very much impressed with most of the content as I, among many others, was under the impression that it was his original content. Couple os days back, though, I came across some content which I definitely knew was a chain mail forward and had been pasted in the post without acknowledging so. When asked, I was referred to their disclaimer tab, which points out that most of the content is indeed mail forwards and that the author has not right over the matter but them being mail forwards for ages, no one knows the original author and hence no copyright violation.

I, still, do not think that the 'disclaimer' pardons the owner from not mentioning the same in the post especially when most of the readers never read the disclaimer part and hence are under the illusion that the content is original.

I would like to have some views on this!!!

@aashish - mentioning in each blogpost the source even if it is email forward should do the trick...

When we talk about moderation, let me tell you one thing my friend. The concept of blogging is actually free of any kind of moderation. Whether to read a blog or not should actually be the discretion of the reader. In this world we are transfering the onus of censorship to the readers. This is more logical and more open.

the blpg is personal, but when we write a post and post it, it becomes public, then it is open to all types of criticism and appraisal, both should be taken in teh right spirit, to improve our blogging capabilities.

try to be yourself when ur blogging.

Blogging was meant to be personal. And accepting praise and criticsim equally is a quality every blooger should posses that's the only way he can get better and improve in the true sense.Having said that great useful post Amitabh :)Cheers !!!!http://ravisadrani.wordpress.com
