WOWWWWW! I come in and find this thread..
Well, what can I say? My links section seems to be going down the pan :)
Can I clarify something then please guys - it IS illegal to post an authors
paper to your web page with out their prior permission.. Got that.. Wasn't
planning to do it either - yet :)
What about posting a link from our page to a page on somebody else's site
that holds the paper (legally or not)? <-- what I WAS planning on doing.
What about posting links to peoples SITES without their "permission"? I
usually do ask the authors of the sites whether they mind a link being
posted to their site from ours, and am in fact about to start this exercise
off the list, for those site owners on my list - beware :) But again I
shouldn't see a problem with this - as it is essentially promoting that
persons site (and in MY opinion anybody complaining about this must be a
moron).
I guess all I really want to know (without consulting our solicitor or
anything ridiculous like that :) is what can I post on our site? We want
something that will really benefit a surfing DBA! As many of you know, you
visit a site looking for something, you surf the site, and a lot of people
then see what kind of links they have - to carry on surfing for what you are
looking for.. That's the direction I'm going in.. To get to our site, people
are going to be searching for /Oracle admin/performance/tuning/sql
tuning/archiving/same for sybase and sqlserver/ kind of key words - so
essentially I have to follow this trend to link people out of the site
also - IMHO.
Your opinions?
Cheers
Mark
