Delinking

Some blogger of whom I’ve never heard has announced that he is delinking several blogs, all of which I’ve heard of and most of which I read. He’s getting lots of free publicity for the blog in so doing.

I hereby announce that I am de-linking the site in question. Granted, I don’t currently link him. How could I, given that I’ve never heard of him? Nonetheless, I consider that a minor technicality. He’s off the blogroll, baby.

About the Author: James Joyner is the publisher of Outside the Beltway and the managing editor of the Atlantic Council. He's a former Army officer, Desert Storm vet, and college professor with a PhD in political science from The University of Alabama. He lives just outside the Beltway in Alexandria, Virginia with his wife and infant daughter.

Trying to be funny? I mean I get the joke, but I think that he was saying that those 3 individuals were going to de-link him for discussing a "all nighter".

Uh, no. Kevin was kidding about that part.

Funny thing is ... in his post, he links each one of the sites that he is de-linking.

OK, I'm de-linking them, starting ... NOW!

N'ermind. Not enough coffee, shouldn't comment, etc. etc.

James, thank you for referring me to three other blogs I had not seen before, all of which I shall read, enjoy, and link. I think this odd fellow is missing a link.

Lair over at This Blog is Full of Crap has an offer. At your request he will link and then de-link you, and other things.

Get the feeling Laurence is not taking this seriously?

Pre-emptive delinking.
Interesting concept you have there.
