(And to think... one of the projects I'm working on this week will only serve to speed up the weblog communities even faster then they already work now, and to help them draw closer together dynamically... I'm certainly not helping to slow things down any...)
If you add a link to iRights today, and you are a member of Weblogs.com, you should see your weblogs show up in the list about half-an-hour after your weblog shows up on Weblogs.com. Do not link directly to the Linkback page itself... it will be moving, or possibly even disappearing completely, tommorow.
If you go to the linkback page, you will see all the weblogs that have linked to iRights since yesterday.
Co-operation between the Don't Whine When You Can Do Dept. and the iRights Community Research Institute I bring you the first iteration of the Linkback program I talked about in "Weblog Community: Conclusions".
Update: I forgot to tell y'all, I'm also keeping track of links to Discuss.editthispage.com. Go to the this page for pages linking to Discuss.editthispage.com.
(Heh heh, as a result of this paragraph now I'll show up there at about 9:30 PM EST...)
Read my "Weblogs Communities" piece while I'm gone, 'K?
However... I should come back with a bang.
Pause. I'm going home for Spring Break tommorow, and network connectivity at home is actually worse then it is here. Odds are, I won't be updating this site at all until I get back.
"So now I've got a community and some interesting discussions, but some people have alerted me to their perceived degradation of the metafilter community. ... So now I'm wondering, how can I stop any decrease in the quality of discussions at metafilter?"
Matthew Haughey, the builder and creator of Metafilter, has posted a really, really, really good question.
