Now that the Letter of the Day has returned, I wanted to create a very short summary of how to get your blog linked. I’ve explained this before, but apparently it hasn’t made much sense. So here goes:

1. The LOTD goes in alphabetical order. A… B… C… see the pattern?

2. Blogs with a valid link to the previous day’s LOTD are automatically included in the next day’s LOTD. (i.e., If you link Monday’s LOTD, I’ll link you back in Tuesday’s.)

3. Blogs from my blogroll that begin with that day’s LOTD are also automatically included. (e.g., If the LOTD is B and your blog is named Big Bad Blog, I’ll link you.)

4. I link entries that are new, that interest me and that work with the LOTD. So don’t get pissy if you think I should link a particular entry but I choose something else. That’s not playing along… it’s just whining.

UPDATE: Don’t forget, you can sign up for Notifications in the sidebar to receive an email when the LOTD is posted.
