Halp Pls?

Erm...

Whilst googling 'luthaisea'  (I'm vain and nosey, deal with it) I came across this  - http://www.scoop.it/t/larp/p/1048039706/luthaisea-s-kit-astrid-and-the-lorien-trust

It would appear my blog post on Astrid's kit now appears in some kind of online larp magazine?  Only I wasn't asked and I have no idea what it is or anything.  If you click on it it takes you to my blog and stuff and they don't make out they've written it or anything but still...  Should I be annoyed?  Do I want to get it taken down and if so how on earth do I go about that?

I have sod all internet savvy.  Please give advice?

Looks to me like this is some sort of curated links collection - a bit like the way @WeLoveBath works on Twitter. This sort of thing is fairly common on the internet these days. It has a similar look and feel to the QI site, too.

As Peter says, the most likely result of this is that more people will find your blog. If you think this is a good thing, then you can probably just leave it be.

On the other hand, if you don't want it there, I'd go for a polite email asking them to take the link down. Not too sure if there's much more you can do - the legal side is very confusing, particularly as there are likely multiple jurisdictions involved (scoop.it is an Italian domain, for one thing).

Not entirely sure I'd call it rude - there's definitely an internet subculture in which it's seen as positive to share blog posts you've found. Maybe a culture clash?
