I don’t get it, I really don’t. I don’t understand how blogging trackback works to share information. I get that you can make a like to another page; I do that all the time. It’s the tracking part that eludes me.

OK, so Buzz posted this morning about linking from other blogs about sites we have blogrolled. I can do the part I understand:

I have blogrolled All That Arises and Pete Beck because these guys are friends of mine, who both put a log of thoughtful time into what they write. Erik at ATA writes about the war, the economy, etc. – very incisive. As long as our people are in harm’s way we owe them this cognizance. Pete’s blog is more built for fun, and it is.

Now I don’t see how any of that serves to track anything back to Buzz’s blog. Maybe I’m supposed to add this code:
