OK, just noticed a DU change |
|
what is the difference between what used to be "link" and what is now "permalink"?

15. It's an easy way to link to a specific post in a thread |
|
Say if you want to post it on another site for people to see.
Link and permalink are the same thing, but permalink is just the hip nerd term or something.

2. Skinner answered it earlier - it's the same thing as "link" |
|
but permalink is the currently accepted nomenclature for that function in the blogosphere.

4. I just tried clicking on it as well.... |
|
And all it did was send me to the post where the permalink came from...
What's the point of that? Anybody know? Maybe they will have a discussion of this one of these days...in the spot where the announcements are made...
:shrug:

And after I had slightly snarky things to say in your thread re praying for the president, even!
You are the living example of a very good and moral person...
And we all need more of such people as yourself...thank you!

:blush: I let your comment stand. You are entitled to disagree, and you did so politely. That makes you a class act, IMO. O8)

12. Thank you so much...I did want to be polite; I see no point in |
|
rudeness...especially when it comes to religious discussions....
People's feelings about religion can be very sensitive, and even though I am not religious myself, I understand and respect this....
I really appreciate your calling me a class act...that is rarely spoken to me, ever...
Takes one to know one, I always say...:loveya:
