Why is everyone here is concerned with the repackaging of "information" into a link post like JSteele? If you don't like it don't read it. If the readers are stupid enough to think it's good stuff and into clicking that's their problem.

Obviously the market will shrink once the links go away, but that's another story.
From my perspective only, it's depressing because the points and miles game used to be about sharing a passion and having fun. Now for many it is about marketing and money.

Probably some nerds out there feel the same way about ComicCon, etc.
