CNET Not Linking To Blogs

Kevin Burton and others notice that CNET doesn't link to bloggers. Oh, I've seen this behavior before. It comes from the old-school "make a site sticky" attitude. There are lots of people in this industry that believe that the way you get the biggest audience is to build a roach motel. You know, get your viewers in but don't let them leave your properties. Problem is that doesn't really hold up. The sites that get the most traffic send their users elsewhere. Now, go, get out of here. Enjoy the weekend. Shoo. No roach motel here. Heheh. Maryam won't allow that! Link: MSDN Webcast blog so you can keep up on the latest. What's fun? I'm doing a MSDN Events page. This fall is gonna be busy.
