Net Neutrality Links

I’m adding this link to the Net Neutrality Page.

The Banned Site tool turns up something interesting

Over on Threadwatch they were discussing the newest MSN seach parameter, which allows the parameter LinkFromDomain. Russ Virante, one of the commenters, posted his newest tool based on that parameter, which will show you which of your outbound links that are banned from Google, pretty useful if you want to weed them out, though it only shows the first hundred, and this site has more outbounds than that. Be that as it may, it was useful in weeding out one from my webgeek directory.

also ran it on the Bitchslappin Political Blog to see what turned up over there. . . . But the other surprise was the Verizon PoliBlog, which I won’t link to, but you can find here:

Hmm, one has to wonder why that is? Is it something in the algorithm? Did they do something shady? Have they been spammy? Or could it have something to do with Verizon’s stance on Net Neutrality?

    Either the tool is worthless or someone is having their fun. I ran the tool on my site. Evidently most, if not all, of the blogs I’ve linked to are banned, as well as Wikipedia, The Free Dictionary, Wordpress, archives.gov, and the Washington Post. The algorithm is a bit odd, to say the least.

    Or I’m reading the results wrong.

    Hi Rick,
    The tool shows you the top 100 backlinks and the bad ones show up RED. It sounds like you don’t have any.

    I was reading it wrong. Can you see me turn red?

    Rick,
    If I didn’t have that Verizon backlink myself, I would have come to the very same conclusion. :)

    You look good in red. :)
