It's not like all you ever do is just put up links. It reminds me of a shorter version of what Charles Kirk of <a href="http://kirkreport.com" rel="nofollow">The Kirk Report</a> does.

Since I'm so busy applying the useful things I find here, I don't have as much time to just surf the net any more. :-) A short summary would help me know if they're something that'd be worthwhile for me right now.

For several weeks, Get Rich Slowly had a sidebar that contained links to items that were interesting but that (a) I didn't have enough time to write about or (b) weren't worthy of a full entry. I did not like the way that the sidebar was implemented, so I chose to try this new system, which publishes links from a del.icio.us feed as part of the main flow of the weblog. If I understand correctly, you're saying that you find this tacky. Yes? What do you believe the best method is for sharing this sort of thing? Publish the del.icio.us links to a sidebar? Not publish them at all? I'm curious, and willing to hear what you have to say. Thanks for the feedback, Jeff.

If you don't have time to give a full summary of the article and give some fuel for discussion, I say best to just skip it and concentrate on one or two really good items.
