Sam Ruby wants to go Beyond Backlinks, and I’m right there with him. He writes about the various means we’ve tried so far to discover connections (ie. referrers and linksback and Jon’s analysis of blogroll connections), and muses further.

Found these hot little things via Phil Ringnalda and via Matt Griffith: Mark Pilgrim’s Amphetadesk Auto-subscribe bookmarklet and Radio auto-subscribe bookmarklet.
