How to bribe Glenn Reynolds to link to you
Wizbang just posted at length on "How to get an Instalanche ," meaning, how to get the blogfather, Glenn Reynolds, to post a link to you site.

Naturally, Glenn linked to the post and now Wizbang is getting, oh, maybe 127,500 hits per hour.

Wizbang, poor deluded blogger, actually thinks you have to have some substance in your posts to get Glenn’s link. It just ain’t true, after all, Glenn links to me with some regularity and most of what I post is substance free, free-association pixel babbling.

So take it from me: if you can’t put a verb and a noun together to make an English sentence, worry not. In fact, like Yoda you can write; Glenn to link to you still will.

The other top bloggers know that if you can’t dazzle Glenn with brilliance, you have to cross his palm with gold. That’s what I do.

Do you really think that Glenn makes enough money as a University of Tennessee professor and freelance writer to buy one of these? Please . Hey, I bought that for him in exchange for two links per month to my site for the next two years.

Geeze, folks, get a grip. Forget quality. Any inbound link worth having is worth bribing for.
