Iain's fabulous revenge

Iain Dale under attack
The fabulous Mr. Dale


I was expecting this (I'm surprised I lasted so long). The tygerland.net link on Iain Dale's blogroll has been vaporised. This, as you can imagine, is akin to being struck off someone's Christmas list and I am suitably devastated.

I know revenge can sometimes seem hollow and empty, but please Iain, enjoy it. I would hate to think this blog's meagre sacrifice has been in vain.

How ungallant. I'll add you to mine to make up for it.

It's like losing a fiver, and then finding Scarlett Johansson's phone number in your jeans.

Cheers Tom.

What's there to worry about. On the other hand I really don't know why Labour bloggers link to dale's site, what's the point? Does he need the publicity? Is it an interesting site that browsers might have missed? Is he not a tory tosser?

And as for those "dale likes my blog" adverts...have people no dignity? ;-)

He's the dull one that likes compiling lists obsessively, isn't he?

Oh yes, Ha(!), he is.

Yellow, I promise to stop being so serious soon and go for a splash in the pond.

Yes, but Tyger, you are going to have to stop linking to him within your posts too.

Bloggers like Guido and Dale depend on link-love in the midst of people's posts. It boosts their Google Page rank. If you are referring to them in your post, then type the link out with a * in the middle eg http://i***dale.blogspot.com/ That way, people will know who you are referring to but but Google and Alexa won't pick up a link.

Ooooh you're a sly one Snow. I have made a slight change to Iain's desc on the blogroll, which is worth the price of having his blog there for a while longer. Can you spot it?

I have also deleted Oliver Kamm. But that's simply because I don't like him.

Thanks for calling in Snow.x

snowflake5: Linking to individual items isn't as influential as having a static link to the main URL on your front page.

PS - Tom = gent.
