Default Re: Hyperlinks - New Window or Same?

Rob: I used to set my links to open in a new window/tab but that was until I came across an article that warned bloggers against doing it. Apparently, links that open in new windows/tabs are "spammy", and readers don't like it.

I wasn't convinced, until I read another article which mentioned something like, if readers wanted a particular link to open in a new window/tab, he could easily do it by right-clicking on the link, or by clicking the scrolling button on the mouse.

Then I thought, since it's so easy to open links in new windows/tabs these days, why don't I let me readers decide?

So there..
