Articles pertaining to products your site offers

Link to them or make them a page on your site?

When I say make them a page, this includes taking into account copyrights and proper mention of the author as intended.

With that said, I have a site about "Widget Templates and Design" I have found several different articles about "Making better widgets".

Should I just create links to these resources or should I create new pages on my site containing the articles? Would my site get flagged for duplicate content since I'm just copying content that is already available?

Which is the best method?

In my experience, and backed up by comments from GoogleGuy about this, the duplicate content thing isn't that strict. I have reviews from pcworld etc. on the web and it's never been a problem.

Someone has a web site with a compilation of GoogleGuy sayings- you can look it up there if you can't find it around here.

But that's just Google, AskJeeves or elsewhere could be a different story.

Thanks for the info. I searched for that website on here and on google, but didn't come up with anything.. just a bunch of questions to GoogleGuy.

Anyone know where this website is located?

An "allinurl:googleguy says" search on Google should lead you there.

No, no problem at all. You answered my question, AND gave additional resources that will help answer future questions.
