I think I might add a form like that here, specific to this site. Not that anyone would use it, but it might be fun to work out how to get it working.</p> Melanie - that’s why I kept the url, but made it fairly unobtrusive… I think I might add a form like that here, specific to this site.

Bloody clever. Assuming i can work out the MT tags for the template, i'll take your cue and go for inline trackbackability. I think if the people who make this stuff stopped to think 'Will my mom get this?' at some point, we'd have a lot more genuinely useful tools kicking about...</p> Ah, I see what autodiscovery does now.

It feels really gimmicky. I just won't put that URL visibly on my site. Exposing that level of code unnecessarily to people like my mum just seems <i>dirty</i>!</p> <p>So no - I'm prepared to meet that cost head-on. We have to push people (if we're going to stick with Trackback as a model) to the auto-discovery method as soon as possible.</p> Basically I think that Trackback without the autodiscovery element engaged is a terrible terrible hack that shouldn’t be allowed to exist on web pages.

So no - I’m prepared to meet that cost head-on. We have to push people (if we’re going to stick with Trackback as a model) to the auto-discovery method as soon as possible.
