OTA weekend and link round up
Leave a trackback of your best post for others to read. Also, look at the trackbacks below to see what others are saying.
And for my non-bloggin friends…feel free to look around and put your 2 cents in my comments…or if the mood strikes, cue up the band and give us a showtune.
For an explanation of a trackback, go here or here.
If your blog does not support Trackbacks (blogger is still in the dark ages in this regard), check out Haloscan, which I used to use on my old blogger site, or you may also just use The Wizbang Standalone Pinger to do so.
Just include this post’s permalink (right the post title and copy the short cut) in your post and use the Trackback URL at the end of the post for your trackback.
