I think I was the person that prompted this question. You posted this to Twitter "New DM post. http://post.ly/1CZ4q" The link took us to your Posterous blog, and the entry was just "New DM post" for a title, and "http://bit.ly/aYuqlO" as the body. That link took us to your "Training" entry on Digital Meteorologist.
A link on Twitter right to your Digital Meteorologist posting would have been better, in this case.
I voted in this poll for 'Post information directly without a link', but I would change that if I could, now that I've thought more about the poll quesiton. One's own platform is the place to put your original material. Other places (Twitter, especially) may not give you the detail you need.
What you should not do is put a link to a link to the information. I hope that makes sense.
