    Hi, I've been reading the Daily News email for many years - because it's great - and I often tweet the articles it highlights. However, I rarely give credit to CodeProject for this, but I'd like to, so how should I do that? With a #CodeProject hashtag? Use the link that goes through CodeProject's servers (from the email with redirect)? Or is there a CodeProject page you have for each article mentioned (i.e. that may contain additional advertising?) Mat

      Each article has a 1 to 5 star rating at the top, which is a way to say "this is good" (5 stars) or "this is rubbish" (1 star). Each article also has a forum at the bottom which lets you talk directly to the author and that means you can given personal thanks (or criticism) as you wish. To thank the people who run it, put an atsign in front of the text "Chris-maunder" and say what you think of the site in this forum! The atsign acts as a "Person reference" and send them an email to indicate you directed it at them. Like this: @Akademy Sent you an email. Be aware he may not respond too quickly, he is renowned for taking his time to work through his emails: I think he's up to 2007 already! :laugh:

      Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay... AntiTwitter: @DalekDave is now a follower!

        I fear you greatly misunderstand how voting works in the real world.

          I think you misunderstood what he was asking. I believe he is referring to the external articles linked to in the daily Insider News emails (or similar). When he shares them with the rest of the world (via Twitter), he wants to give credit to Code Project for having found the article in the first place and sharing it with him.

          The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

            Yes, that's exactly right. I was meaning how to give credit outside of code project. In my case, I usually use twitter to pass on any interesting stories.
