salixbabylonSo I'm trying to pull together lists of links and recs for my web pages.
Do I need to let the authors of stories/owners of archives know that I'm linking to them? Obviously I should link to the warning page and use their banners if they have them (for the links page), but is it considered rude or improper to not inform people that you're linking to their site from yours?
I guess I'm hoping not, because I'm looking an an assload(tm) of emails to send out and get approvals for, if so.
Anyone know? How would you feel if I linked to your site without telling you?
(Personally, I think I'd like to know, but just for the reassurance that someone was reading. I doubt that, say, Seeker or the PSA really need that fangirlyness.)
