I completely agree with BillSmithBooks. The only way I can see to share books -- and this is what I did today -- is to just post *that* I found something and where, and I didn't provide any links. Since I'd got the deal from eReaderIQ, I wasn't sure I could scrub the links satisfactorily, and I knew that if I got called a liar, I might lose my temper and sass someone. ("Liar" is about the worst thing you can call someone in my family. It was The Unforgivable Sin when I was growing up: break the cookie jar, bad; lie about it, worse-than-anything-ever.)
A lot of B&N and Amazon links have refs and tags in them. I genuinely don't know whether those things are required or affiliations or what. And I don't even know how to deal with the shortened links -- Amazon has its own link shortener now, I noticed the other day when I was updating my YouTube reviews.
I just find the whole thing very discouraging. I hope my "A book I like is half-priced at Amazon" post helps someone, but I feel bad not including a link.
EDIT: May I start my own thread but instead of
Affiliate Links for Ana, call it
Affiliate Links for eReaderIQ? That's where my finds come from and I don't re-aff them for my account. And other people could contribute finds there, too.
