Now that Adobe owns this I think it will more widespread technology.

Hi Dcurtis,

Sorry if the article I wrote seemed like common sense. I was trying to point out why the home button has become web convention. And point out placement of content in relation to that.

FishTrain is my site. Why should I be banned for submitting articles from my site? Are there rules against this on YCombinator?

I see this from various different authors, they write something on there blog then login here and submit it. I don't believe HN is meant to be the place to write the article it is more geared towards linking to other sites, Linking to your own where you could go in depth, provide images and downloads makes more sense.

I think I overreacted, and I apologize. The home button is web convention, and the purpose of your article was to me somewhat confusing.

I was under the impression that it is in bad taste to submit your own articles to social sites like news.yc, reddit, and Digg. It appears that you submit every single article you write. (And some, honestly, are good-- far better than this one.)

If you took the time to write it, and are willing to share it, why not submit it? That's always seemed silly to me.

Yeah, it is only against social convention here to submit your own stuff if it is plagarized or linkjacked or bad.

No worries. I will keep in mind trying to submit links to sites other than mine. Thanks for the tip.

What about privacy? http://fishtrain.com/2007/09/28/what-happens-when-a-social-g...

This is a bad submission. False headline. How do you vote an article down?

Making a comment saying it is a bad submission is great, just please don't say "This article should be on reddit!!!!!!!!"

This is the power of feedback. Nice post!
