Personal blurblogs should only contain references to original articles and not the whole articles

You should consider to change the format of the personal burblogs to contain only a reference to the original article, not the whole article itself. I had an incident with my first post on Renesys’ blog that Mikko Hyppönen from F-Secure tweeted. It is very hard to notice that that the original article is from Renesys. That should be made much clearer and visible. Also the article should not be referenced as a whole in the blurblog, just as a snippet. How about?

Strongly disagree with turning shares into snippets. There’s Facebook for that. The dev.newsblur.com reskin has a better compromise: roll up long posts with a link to expand.
