Learning to Send Trackbacks
I’ve been going over the post at 5 Minutes for Mom in order to learn how to use the trackbacks feature. This is my practice post. I wrote my post and obtained the link to 5 Minutes for Mom from the permalink at the bottom of 5 Min’s post. I then used the permalink in my post and but the proper html around it to make my words into a link.
Then I clicked on the trackback link over at 5 Minutes for Mom. I put that in my window for trackbacks that is a few windows down on this page where I am writing this post.
I’m getting ready to click the publish button and see if it works. I should see my trackback in their comments.
Edited: It didn’t work. boo hoo
Do any of you use track backs? Should I worry that I can’t get mine to work?

I have done a successful trackback twice and both times the trackback went to the same site. I have tried several other times but unsuccessfully. A couple of times though the blog owner had their comments moderated and so I couldn’t see the trackback right away. I tend to forget to go look later to see if it showed up!
I see you got a trackback to work! WTG! Now, you’ll have to post how you did it!
