[Excuse my poor English] I'm not sure it is necessary to contact the author. Even if it is polite to ask the author before writing, it is unnecessary as the content is publicly available. Unless it is something published in a private domain or a private forum in which case there is an ethical breach as they could be exposing people's privacy.
I'm a researcher and have to submit my proposals to the Research Ethics Committee before starting a new project. Most research journals asked if you have the approval of your committee before publishing your research.
Taking care of people is an important issue to consider when making a research design. In this case, the main question should be: Will I hurt or exposed Birdsofshore in any way by doing this research? How can I protect her?
Quoting you and addressing your work properly is fair game, I think.
I find the whole thing so cool. If I were the researcher, I would love to be contacted by you wanting to read the full paper. It would make my day.
