Tough subject. I guess the the best thing is he was right up front with the fact that he's writing an article and seeking info for that article. I do understand though that based on that being whats going on , some people will not want to contribute info. Overall though , I think I like the idea that someone who is going to write an article is out asking questions and soliciting opinions. I also think that the internet is a good way to get peoples opinions fast. So I guess the biggest thing as far as whats appropriate or not is the fact that he was right up front with what he was up to right off the bat.

I would add that I do agree that the author should in some way acknowledge in the article that ideas were contributed by many via the internet.
