This is a growing trend that's been really starting to annoy and frustrate me. Especially when the in-linking is masquerading as an out-link. To often there is no out-link and I'm forced to open a new tab, and "manually" search for it.


I think its ok when the context makes it clear its a self reference ie : "I haven spoken about <link>this</link> before" type of thing.

When they are just seemingly wikipedia like reference links, having them all be in-links seems poor and lazy form.


I agree. I do, however, like crunchbase. It's concise and useful and I don't know of an alternative for the same information...


I totally agree - this annoys the hell out of me and is one of the reasons why I love hacker news.
