		<description>Helen,

Thanks for the quick link and mini-review!

OneSpot aggregates, filters, and prioritizes the content from hundreds of thousands of blogs and mainstream media sites - this includes thousands of great health sites, including yours.  The Web&#039;s top content can increasingly come from anywhere; while major sites frequently break the big stories, smaller sites do as well, and the best ones provide a unique perspective for their target audience.

Our goal is to model the way we treat bloggers on the way they treat each other - when a blogger quotes someone, they give a short snippet and link back to the original source.  My friend Jeff Jarvis of &lt;a href=&quot;http://buzzmachine.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;buzzmachine.com&lt;/a&gt; calls this &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.buzzmachine.com/2008/06/14/a-proposal-to-the-associated-press-a-link-ethic/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the ethic of the link&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.buzzmachine.com/archives/2005_01_20.html#008917&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&quot;We believe one of our key jobs is to link our public to other voices and to source material so they may judge themselves&quot;&lt;/a&gt;.

This benefits both parties - the linking site serves their audience by finding and pointing out to their readers the best content - no matter where it comes from - and the linked-to site gets greater exposure (and traffic), and an opportunity to convert the new visitor into a regular reader.
