Post the pattern to your own blog, add some commentary to it ("I really

citing properly, and adding commentary on the work. This is literally what
the Huffington Post has been doing since their inception.On Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 5:49 PM, Colin Stanners <[email protected]> wrote: > ThePirateBay sections in the future: > > *warez > *keygenz > *gamez > *moviez > *knitting patternz > > > On Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 5:47 PM, Mark Campbell <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Oh, but it will be for profit :) >> >> >> On Sun, Jan 20, 2013 at 3:06 PM, Ian E.
