We are trying to find a way to explore Ethics, Best Practices of interacting as a community here on FriendFeed. Hope there will be some helpful tips, guides on several issues, please see below. - Nice Fish Films
When an aggregator links to a story or photo to drive traffic to their site, should we try to track the original source? Example- Gizmodo recently showcased a slide show of posters from the 501c http://www.826la.org the posters are a fund raiser for their work. I would like to see them get the "traffic" rather than a site that is using their work for traffic. What is the Best Practice for this? - Nice Fish Films
man - good question. I really hope that at some point FF is able to integrate these kinds of features - I would love to try and make sure the original source was highlighted but most of the time when I add something I just don't have the time at that moment to make sure it is the original source - Marco (aureliusmaximus)
Sources are a must. I see people re-sharing my items all the time (I have FOF on) but instead of 'reashare' they post via boorkmarklet... - Mona N.
Today a visualization map/ image of the Social Media Landscape became popular but no reference was made of the Blog it came from. The author might share some of the confusion burden here because he posted the image on Flickr and it's hard to track down his blog. Is it appropriate to re-share an image from a blog without credit?
