Fedora 9 vs. Ubuntu 8.04
I’m a bit confused by the methods people go about reporting news now-a-days. I’m probably late to the game, but it seems that everyone is stealing, borrowing, whatever from each other and you have to dig down into 2 or 3 levels of blogs in order to get the one true article that was written about the subject.
I forgot how I found it, but the title “Ubunut 8.04 vs. Fedora 9″ caught my eye. I followed it to www.OSnews.com to read a small excerpt of a much bigger story found elsewhere. How long has this been going on? I remember when I first started reading GoogleNews, I noticed that they would have an intro sentence and the real story was somewhere else. That trend (whether started by Google or not) is the norm sharing stories.
I use GoogleReader and it’s amazing how all these supposed news web sites are basically fancy portals to the real news web sites.
