Providing Link Only

I had also pointed out this but the member posting link without any description just remarked that pictures speak more than words. The link contained some pictures.
I also think it will be better to write a few words also besides giving link. However when link is provided, you must visit the link otherwise it is no use reading the post.

infact i too have noticed it many times....i personally many times just provide the link without giving any description.....

from next time i would definitely give brief description along with the link....

thanks abid for bringing up this fact....

Thanks for the feedback,Abid.I feel everybody will follow your suggestion. :) :)

But a link should be provided for getting to know more about the news.

An introduction consisting of a few lines always puts it in a better perspective!

Good point raised Abid.

This issue has been pointed by many members till now... Good to see you highlighting it again...
Providing the main essence of the forum in the post is essential. A link can be given and can be directed to other sites... only if necessary...

Usually due to heavy downloading by students I get the links very rarely and if gets after waiting a long time.So if some description was there I could have a sense what the content is and later may come back.

That's right,Abid! A few explanatory lines and a gist do help a lot!

I think this point has previously been pointed out..and sometimes people are posting their bloglinks too..

Good that everybody accepted the suggestion given by Abid. :) :)
