How are you rewarding those people who link to... - Louis Gray

Since the beginning of 2008, I have been bookmarking links to my blog on Delicious, tagged "coverage" - Louis Gray

You can see the thousands of links here: http://delicious.com/louismg... - Louis Gray

I add secondary tags for the subject, like "blogging", "friendfeed", "twitter", etc. - Louis Gray

The delicious bookmarks get shown on FriendFeed. - Louis Gray

Good idea - Bwana ☠

Now, I set up my settings so that every delicious bookmark I make goes to Twitter via FriendFeed. - Louis Gray

So if you are linking to me, not only will everyone here see it, but everyone on Twitter will see it. Guaranteed exposure. - Louis Gray

And in theory, it gives more exposure back to me by making it look like my blog has a higher rate of visibility. - Louis Gray

Love it Louis. I rt those who have linked to me: http://twitter.com/brianso... - Brian Solis

Very good idea..my delicious bookmarks all go to Facebook as well. - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

Great idea! - Craig Huffstetler

I like them in friendfeed. - Robert Scoble

briliant, thanks for sharing - anna sauce

Robert, I try to do the same, assuming they are here, but FriendFeed is not yet the superset. I also tend to share them in Google Reader when possible. - Louis Gray

Hmm Must add Friendfeed to my blog - Lindy Asimus

And we know the power of a Scoble "Like!" - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

Plus sometimes you strike up conversations with the bloggers, freely sharing ideas and explaining. That impressed me way back when... - MaryAnn Chick Whiteside

That's a fantastic idea. Think I'll start doing it. - Paul Balcerak

Yes, Mary. It always makes sense to make comments and engage with those discussing your content, if you have the time. - Louis Gray

Great idea Louis. You have become my social media constant, I have to hang on to you so I don't get LOST. - Matthew

new strategy: link to louis in every single blog post... muwahahahaha - andy brudtkuhl

I used to do this a lot but then he got me all caught up in this 'new adopter' stuff and I couldn't get anything done (Louis rocks :) - Charlie Anzman

I got the idea from Louis awhile back, but here's mine: http://del.icio.us/jessest... and for socialtoo: http://del.icio.us/jessest... - Jesse Stay

those that link to vertical slice I tend to thank, I'll even come to them and offer to involve them in the show production at times by offering to involve their articles or creations. Sadly there's only one guy that does post some episodes to his blog that I'm aware of. - alphaxion

Louis, what discovery tool do you use to find those linking to you? Google Alerts? - Rick Bucich

We reward those who give our comic what we call a "Mighty Link", with a nice link back under the comic... http://www.geekculture.com/joyofte... - Snaggy

PS - that question goes out to everyone else as well. I love the idea and use it to a degree but never in a systemic way. Do you think http://delicious.com is the ideal platform? - Rick Bucich

Mike Fruchter started the same: http://delicious.com/mfrucht... - Louis Gray

@Rick i prefer diigo... it allows you to build communities around the links - andy brudtkuhl

Rick, Google Alerts are okay (not perfect). Technorati actually still does a better job. - Louis Gray

Dang, I didn't even think of doing that, ok - off to go link love people. thanks! - Dan owns Comicsforge.com

But, i used to do the same thing back when i was a delicious user - http://delicious.com/48web... - andy brudtkuhl

I also have FriendFeed post my delicious saves over to Twitter to further the reward - Jesse Stay

Good to know, I'm a newb when it come to Technorati although i do have an account - Rick Bucich

Andy, if you do link to me in every post, you'll probably lose readers. I dare you to try. :) - Louis Gray

@Louis haha i doubt it .. everyone loves them some louis - andy brudtkuhl

Does Technorati work for websites not on a blog platform? We have both - Rick Bucich

Andy -- for example, should I bookmark this one? http://billolearysblog.blogspot.com/2009... Knowing that it will get redistributed, I'm less likely to. But I may comment there instead. - Louis Gray

I'm going to do the same - Was thinking linking tweets as well, but then that would be too much... - Bwana ☠

I love this! Way to rally the community! - Dan owns Comicsforge.com

A most valuable conversation thread indeed! - tony obregon

I like the "coverage" tag idea. Must incorporate into my blog routine. - Ms_Krista

Great Idea! Luis, how do you know who is linking to your Blog? I just linked to you ( http://bit.ly/4webways ) - frank barry

I got really excited when I noticed a link from louismg in delicious. I wondered why, as I don't write about anything social networking related. When I figured it out I started doing the same thing: _both_ sites which linked to me have some shiny delicious.com love from me. Heh. - DGentry

i make cupcakes for each link and mail them to each person - Allen Stern

I so never got my cupcakes! Maybe you should email 'em Allen ;-) - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

I'll link to them if I really like their blog, otherwise I stumble a post - Kate

I delicious people who write about FriendBinder: http://delicious.com/rythie... sometimes I Twitter about them too or Digg them. - Richard Cunningham

joined in with this idea too http://friendfeed.com/alphaxi... - alphaxion

now if only i had my delicious bookmarks all organized like that. - Alfredo 亜瑠布れっど

It's not too late Alfredo :D (or is it) - Bwana ☠

idk take a look http://delicious.com/fredyga... - Alfredo 亜瑠布れっど

Yeah your tags are ... how do you say... scattered :( - Bwana ☠

aye, looks like you struck into the problem I did - you can't have multiple word tags unless you take out the space and bunch it into a single word. Not even quotes works - alphaxion

Great strategy Louis, I am going to start doing a similar thing at http://delicious.com/garinki... only I am going to tag the Blog with whatever category it belongs to instead of "coverage" - Garin Kilpatrick

Sounds like a plan to me! Will start implementing today! - Mike Paul

So that's why one of my posts got a tweet from Louis Gray! That puzzled me a lot. Only now that I remember that I've linked to Louis in that post. Sweet! Nice touch. ",) - jan geronimo

I stream my ego feed on Twitter - Beth Kanter

Lawton: I have accounts with SU and delicious but recommend using delicious because I find it more efficient, especially when used with the Firefox plugin. - Garin Kilpatrick

Revisiting this old thread because it's so useful. - Rick Bucich
