Hello, I've been thinking and I want to start a blog. It will be about random intresting stuff I found in the internet and it will be in spanish. My website is currently only in english but I will have the spanish version ready very soon, so a blog will be go to get traffic to my website and besides I like "collecting" stuff from the internet and a blog will be the best way to share that.
Anyway...my question is...how does it work when using other people's stuff in your blog.
Let's say I find an article that I want to talk about in <a href="http://crave.cnet.com/">crave</a>, of course I will use my own words and stuff, besides it will be translated, can I use that info and say something like "article from crave.cnet.com"
is that ok?
It depends on how the source says you can use the information... so check with the source, but usually if it's published online for the community, and as long as you mentioned clearly at the end of the article where you can get your information from, it should be OK to use. Many website have little links with their articles that say something like "blog this" ... that lets you know that it's OK.

It actually helps other sites if you link to them. Basically search engines associate that site with the content within your blog. If there are a lot of words within your blog that are related to that site, search engines will determine that the site is relevant for those keywords. This helps that site achieve a higher search engine page rank.

from my own experience, content owners who allow their pieces to be used, would want that they be acknowledged and their bio info such as name, site url and contact be also be included in the content reused. What all content owners dislike is blatant plagiarism.
