I think we have a problem with online etiquette here in Kuwait
Okay so you read a topic you liked in another blog, you comment on it and post part of it in your site / blog that is fine and great
But reposting the full article even with a link and just opening comments is quite rude
And its get insulting when a major newspaper site does it
Alwatan (even in a good gesture thing they manage to make it evil, really diabolical)
this article is just a copy paste from another blog ( which they linked in the headline )
Alwatan
but they still left comments open , if they had online etiquette or even some common sense , they would have closed comments and made people comment at the original article , so the writer can know what others said about his article , not search around the internet to see who said what about what he is thinking
And make the link clickable

What happened to Kuwait ? stuff happen that i could have accepted 5 years ago happen now ? something trivial like
linking to pictures hosted at other sites is so 1999 , but now in the year 2010 this is unacceptable
so when i see in my Referrer Report for my site something like

opening the page http://www.philosophy.kuniv.edu/cv_ar.php
I was wondering what is linked from my page there , its is after all the official site for Kuwait University , the first instutte to get internet in Kuwait and arguably in the gulf
Checking the pictures i found this

Really ? Kuwait University DO not have a picture of a teacher and wouldn’t even bother to host the picture at least !!
