TechCrunch posting excerpts to spread traffic out across their blogs is annoying.

Especially when it's their gadget blog posting on a non-gadget topic, and particularly when it's just summarizing a 3rd blog anyway:

Now that you mention it, I'm starting to hate how HN users post links to TechCrunch's coverage of some new project instead of posting the project site-- or, in some cases, the link to the write-up that they are excerpting. I prefer to bypass the middleman.
