I get email like this one from time to time:
Hey there, Eric here from The Southern Beat (http://thesouthernbeat.com). I really enjoy reading your site and was wondering if you would like to trade links? It really doesn't look like you need much help pulling in a big audience becuase your blog is so popular...but mine could use a little help as I am just getting started and trying to build an audience. And I can try to help advertise you in any way possible, just let me know.Anyway, good work on your site and I hope to hear back from ya!
Cheers.
-Eric
I clicked over to Eric's site and found he was a 16-year old HS Junior. So now I can answer him:
Okay Eric, but be forwarned, if I link your blog The Southern Beat it means you must join the Marines. This is a rule and can't be violated. Many people don't realize that this is why Glenn Reynolds isn't posting anything this month - he's in basic training. ;)
If you don't want to join the Marines right now you can take advantage of an open post like this one. Link any post on your blog The Southern Beat to it and the trackback will automatically appear below.
You won't even have to join the Air Force!
Open Post! Have at it.
