Link Love 2007.03.07
As of November 5, 2007, drivebyshooter.net will no longer be updated. For posts on photography, you can now go to LightChasers Photography. For the author's personal site, head over to the Dark Corner.
Yes, it’s time for another edition of Link Love. If you’re wondering if there’s a method in this madness, keep wondering. When you come up with an answer, tell me. I’d like to know too. Before that though, check out these links. The theme for today, blogging.
- Copyblogger writes about 5 common mistakes that make you look dumb. I tell you, if your stupid enough to make these mistakes in you’re blog, then I wouldn’t be surprised to know that their will be bloggers out their who will be mocking you on there blogs.
- Jepoy becomes the latest victim of Adsense check theft. In response, Yuga discusses ways to prevent such occurences.
- J. Angelo discusses the retirement, and possibly, the death of rel=nofollow. I’m for killing it off - Akismet and other programs out there are better at fighting spam. On a related note, I installed the DoFollow WP plugin a week ago or so - I just never announced it.
- Bulletproofvest discusses stereotypes and blogging combats stereotypes.
- Poseidon explains why those of us who’ve prayed for ponies never got our wishes granted - it seems the gods are out of ponies. That’s not what’s important though - God’s comment at the end is. He has a new commandment: “Thou shalt link to Me.“
- An old post, but something worth bringing up again, Jayvee asks you to define your blog conviction.
- Of course, how can we forget the 2007 Philippine Blog Awards? The time and place are now set, and the nomination period has ended - now we just have to wait find out who the finalists are.
- Finally, in a bit of self-promotion, but I have a little something on scheduling posts in WordPress.

speaking of mistakes: “…their will be bloggers out their who will be mocking you on there blogs…” it should be “their” not “there”
watch out for being mocked on your own blog too!

benj: I think they aim to release the list way before the 31st - they’re probably working overtime now.
darwinfish: While we’re on the topic of mistakes,
I tell you, if your stupid enough to make these mistakes in you’re blog, then I wouldn’t be surprised that their will be bloggers…
Its a shame when sarcasm loses it’s bite. Then again, I’m probably at fault for not making the sarcasm evident. I’ve italicized the “mistakes” on the post to emphasize the sarcasm.
