That is the type of info that are supposed to be shared across the net, too bad the newspaper got penalized.

I have not checked News corp for some time as I thought it was getting boring, but the last handful of articles are good, much better than being a link broker.

Getting more backlinks is very important for Search Engine Optimization. While you can always buy backlinks from other webmasters, the easiest way to get backlinks is to comment on other blogs with your url. However finding blogs in your niche and then commenting is a tedious job and takes a lot of time.

It is very nice to see second generation bloggers making an effort to make the web more useful with higher quality links and better content. Hopefully the days of mega sites selling links is over.
