Referendum: Do you prefer blog or embedded TRs
 

I stirred up a discussion on A-net about the preference of blog links vs embedded TRs. I'm curious to find out what your views are!

Thanks!

Embedded without a doubt .....^

Agree 100%.

more likely to read embedded TR's.

Embedded as a general rule. However, some people like lucky9876coins run a hell of a blog and I don't mind going to their sites.

Depends on the site and the embedded TR
 

I think there are some people whose links absolutely suck. Just horrible. But then, like lucky, they are quite excellent. Also, there are people who just write a bunch of text in the embedded forums with no pictures and just pages upon pages of text. I find those absoultely boring.

So, in the end, it does not matter if it's embedded or a link; what matters is how good the TR is.

However, if the TR's were identical, I would prefer embeeded over the link.

Embedded by far.

Embedded +1

OK! In that case it's time to change the format of my future TRs! Links at the top, then embedded below. What do you think?

I like that. I am much more likely to read embedded reports and might be interested in seeing the person blog so the link would be good as well.

Embedded for me as well.

I got fed up going to blogs and finding the layout poor making them hard to read and follow. :td:

its very rare I'll click a link to someone's blog to read a TR.


And on a similar note, embedded photos are much more preferable (to me) than a link to a photo album. If you have too many photos add a couple relevant to whats in the text and have a link to the full album at the start or underneath.
