Should I be linking to the NY Times?

  Interesting sequence of tweets this morning.
  First, I pointed to a NYT piece on the last minutes of the Air France jet that crashed into the Atlantic.
  I don't remember why, this time, I prefaced the link with NYT. Doing that got me a reply from Dan MacTough.
  Great idea to prefix links to NYT with "NYT" for those of us worried about the stupid monthly cap.
  That isn't why I put the prefix there, but it's an interesting thought nonetheless.
  I point to the NYT a lot. I'm not feeling the pain because I got a freebie subscription from Lincoln. I gather Dan did not get the freebie.
  I pointed to the Times in this case because there was a lot of coverage of the recovery of the black box, and I chose the Times because I thought they'd give me less sensational bullshit than the others (and no annoying interstitial ads, it's often why I don't pass on links to Salon, for example).
  We need to get organized about this stuff. The Times paywall has been here long enough such that we should have answers to questions like this by now.
