Various Test Pings

This is the section for Test Pings. Thanks for testing using this category instead of to the regular categories. It reduces my work and limits your embarassment ;-) To post reviews to this site, please do the following:
  • If you are a Movable Type-user, please copy the below URL to the "URLs to Ping" when you create your entry
    http://www.jacobsen.no/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/anders/MT-2.21/mt-tb.cgi?tb_id=380
    
  • If you don't use MT or another "Trackback"-enabled publishing tool, give MT a try.
"Spamming" the directory will not be accepted. I'm fairly liberal as to what consitutes a book review, but please select the appropriate category if possible, and please submit only once. The "Unsorted" category should generally just be used if you can't find a suitable category for your review, or if you can't be bothered to set up multiple category-pings...

(Tip of the day: set up category pings for your most common categories and create a Category ping for "Unsorted" only when you have reviews outside your usual categories)

If you post in a language other than English, please indicate by writing the Language Name in the beginning of the Excerpt (for example: "[French] ...(your excerpt here)" ). Thanks!
