This Made My Day And It's Only 6:50am

Seeing SmartLinks on Seth's Blog.

For any of you who don't read Seth's Blog, it's the best.

It's what inspired me to blog.

For more on SmartLinks:

A VC: SmartLinking

BlueBlog - Alex's Post On Smart Links

That book widget on Seth's blog used to just point to Seth's books on Amazon.

Now it points to Seth's books all over the web.

That's a win for Seth, a win for his readers, and a win for SmartLinks.

Made my day.

This is John Moore's blog (marketer for whole foods, starbucks)

Good stuff.

I was on Seth's blog when I noticed that he started using the Smart Links I learned about in your previous post. Didn't know they were so popular -- was nearly convinced they weren't (yet) -- so I came back here to find that you had noticed the same.

Seth doesn't change his blog often. He difinitely isn't one for whizbang-o widgets and whatzatas, so it speaks volumes that he liked your recommendation enough to implement it over at his blog. That's assuming this is where he found it.

But the timing suggests as much.

Congrats -- you've got loads of influence.

I gotta disagree about Seth's blog being the best. I'm not saying it sucks, but I looked, and was not able to find any reference to Keith Richards. How can it then be the best?

Sorry Seth, nice effort, keep trying.....

So after I read about Smartlinks here, I went to AdaptiveBlue's site and tried to figure out how to get started. The only button I could find was "Blue Organizer Firefox extension." Does this only work with Firefox? And is BlueOrganizer the same thing as the SmartLinks on Seth's site? It seems there are 600,000 users who are a lot smarter than I am.

Lyndar,

BlueOrganizer is the Firefox extension that you need to make SmartLinks. You need to install it then navigate to any page, hit the icon in the browser and create Smart Link.
