The other day I am perusing Facebook as I am wont to do and I see that Mike Matthews has posted a note about blogging etiquette — which in itself is hysterical since Matthews skated around the edge of trying to out a fellow blogger. But I pay him no mind anymore.
Then there are some e-mails floating around amongst Delaware Liberal contributors trying to figure out what the hell Matthews was talking about. So I decide to go over to his blog — and this bit is important — I go over to his blog for the first time in weeks and read this rather cryptic post about how he’s going to stay above the fray, but that the accused blogger who didn’t link back should step forward. What? This is funny from a guy who, a few weeks ago, said that blogging wasn’t that important.
At this point, I’m thinking it has to “trackbacks”, as I know that some bloggers like other bloggers to use them. If you don’t know what trackbacks are, don’t worry about it, ’cause that wasn’t what this was about.
This morning an email from a fellow contributor enlightened me. Late last week, I wrote a snarky post about a Delaware Politic’s post about the lack of Republicans at the Open Gov’t signing. Apparently Matthews wrote something similar, but since I don’t read his blog, I had no idea.
LOL, Matthews gets bent all out of shape about the supposed lack of a linkback to his post — a post that was not read by me. So, let me finish this post how I started — bwah ha ha ha ha, dumb ass.
