trackbacking

Well, I have to learn about this trackbacking thing. People are starting to do it, and I'm not. Better get my but in gear.

As a sidenote, What if you were Ben or Mena? It's got to feel really neat being the ones who thought it up, and programmed it in. Having an idea, and then seeing it through to useage has got to be pretty neat, especially when it involves creating social networks. In his book, Weaving the Web, Berners-Lee talks about the web as a medium where people can post and edit, and trackback kind of allows that, as I understand it: I read your comment, I make my won, it shows up on your page and creates a dialog. Neat neato.

In other news, I have a really weird referrer showing up that ends with commands/script or something like that (I'm too lazy to look). When I try to visit it, I get a poopy authentication box. If anyone knows where its coming from, drop me a line. I'm kind of interested...

Update: Duh... I pinged my own site, and discovered that the IP involved was my own IP, so I stopped displaying those entries. I don't know what was causing it, because I don't recognize the cll, or the port it was against, but it's gone now.
