No, what I said was that this discussion already had a pretty focused topic: "this entire thread started out as a discussion of books and social networking sites. It had absolutely nothing to do with publishing." The concept of "publishing = recommendation" was not part of that specific topic until you inserted it, and then used it to say that I was incorrect. I guess I could similarly say that my parents implicitly recommended books written in English to me by settling in an English speaking country and sending me to school, where I was taught to read and write in English, rather than some other language. These subtle types of recommendations continue to pop up.
You can choose to cherry-pick words from my phrases if you wish.
