Thanks. I will check that post out :o)
I don't think that you will really notice much of referencing if it is done properly. Whenever a fact is presented you just put a number in square brackets. I am not sure if that harms the sexiness of a post.
What I think is most harmful for sexiness is when you present all the details behind a result. But for most fields you can write a result driven sexy post without details.
No the numbers in square brackets don't take away from sexiness, what does though is when someone has a link that goes nowhere and so it would just reload the page if clicked. Just my opinion though on that one!
Yeah. I agree :o)
