Open Trackback Friday - February 9, 2007

After a week’s absence due to my stupid computer being in the shop, I am pleased as punch (Does anyone use that archaic phrase anymore?) to announce the return of Open Trackback Friday! It is now your opportunity to share interesting entries from your very own blog by using this blog’s trackback feature. I and visitors to this blog like to read interesting stuff on others’ blogs. So link your post to this one, send a trackback to it and it’ll appear in the comments section after I manually approve it. I have to approve all comments & trackbacks manually due to spam bots so it won’t show up immediately, but I will get to it as soon as I can. I use myself as the ultimate spam filter. I manually delete all spam before you, the reader, are subjected to it. Just rightclick where it says “trackback” below and then click on “copy shortcut” to get the trackback URL. That’s all there is to it! And thank you in advance for trackbacking to my blog. And while you’re here, please take some time to look at some articles I’ve posted. Maybe you’ll find something interesting. If you do, trackback to it as well.
