Web authors link to each other, quote liberally, and sometimes annotate entire articles. E-mailing links to favorite articles and jokes has become as much a part of American work culture as the water cooler. The big sin in exposure culture is not copying, but instead, failure to properly attribute authorship. And at the center of this exposure culture is the almighty search engine.<br /></blockquote><br /><br />Read the rest of the article <a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2128094/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1740602384660882808-2017579664207266026?l=twitbits.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Twitbithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16563949065464594268noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1740602384660882808.post-65911009303021524852008-04-11T06:23:00.000-07:002008-04-11T06:26:12.940-07:00Picasso:<br /><blockquote>I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.</blockquote><br /><p>Lazy peeps will say: What if I will never learn how to do it?
