This Week at Internet Duct Tape

  • Opting Out of Technorati - The Break-up

    @FUS

    The links on that list are all hand picked.. the save/link/digg stuff is just metrics I use for sorting the list

    links - number of other blogs who have linked to it
    digg - number of times it was voted for if it was submitted to http://digg.com
