Linking Policy revisited

Lately I’ve been rreceiving a number of requests for mutual linkage – mostly to commercial sites. I don’t do that and my policy is explained in this entry – blogrolling policy.

I will be making one exception shortly, but that is for a friends recruiting business, which coincidentally I made the web site for. shameless plug if you need a web site, a blog theme or anything web related, go to my web design firm, CreateSean Web Design for more information and contact me.

Brian if your page was about preventing toe jam with brand new brown & pink striped wool socks then I’d definitely be interested. Microwaves just don’t interest me, sorry.
