I think my works okay, Chris. I just checked it, but I am not so sure. don’t know really how to look and where. But I hope it is okay. It took me over half hour to get there, finally. don’t know really where to look.
I posted about it both yesterday and Saturday too, Chris. I’m still waiting for an answer from WP. Going to read the reblogged post now – thanks for re-blogging it!

Pingbacks appear when a link to an article in someone else’s blog (or yours) is embedded into a sentence or word and activated Gigi 🙂

I just linked my post to this one and I don’t see a pingback. I’m assuming you allow them… If so, yours are broken too.

Your post pingback works OK Linda – and it brought me to the relevant post – HOWEVER – the strange thing is that the pingback actually appears under another post LOLOL – it’s in the comments at:

I was going to reblog this because you have the handy screen shot up there, but apparently you can’t reblog a reblog. Who knew? 😛
