Hi Kristi
I am loving your Friday feature and the links in it. I love the social media and personal development links (thank you for linking to one of my posts).
I also loved the video at the end, it’s rare that I watch, even a 3 minute video, all the way through but this one was so creative.

Hi another nice Friday linkluv series, well I have lately written one blog post on “how to get backlink from social bookmarking site”, if you like you may include this post on your next post series. Thanks
.-= New from chandan@work at home jobs Few quality link can help you for get rank on search engine =-.
Great list, Kristi. What someone needs to figure out and write about is how to get satisfaction when your content is stolen, and the person seems to be hidden in a place where you can’t get to them, in a country where the ISP doesn’t seem to care that their subscriber has stolen from you. Happened to me; ugh.

@Mitch: One of my friends has had that happen to him lately too, sadly. It’s extremely tricky to get something done about it, as you said. He’s still trying his best though. I’ll post back if he’s able to find any solutions.
Till then,
Jean
