Hi Kin,

thanks for your comment.

It is weird that blogspot hasn’t come up with a better way to do it. I think that wordpress.com hosted blogs have some kind of “who’s lined to me” feature.

PS: you’re allowed to be a bit slow, you just finished exams

I think Yahoo is indexing quickly - so, Yahoo search alerts is a good one to track. Use siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com and use your base URL and it will show all the inbound links (posts and comments)
