A new approach to sharing links
I’ve been hemming and hawing since at least July about the value and merits of link dumping posts.
On the one hand, I love sharing links and I believe that pointing readers to hand picked pages has some real value. But on the other, I acknowledge the difference between a posting a list of links and posting something original.
So here’s my solution: two feeds. One to subscribe to new posts and another to subscribe to links I’ve bookmarked for sharing at Ma.Gnolia.
I’ve also added a Ma.Gnolia link roll to the sidebar so site visitors can see both content streams as well.
Any feedback you might have would be great.

I love the Ma.gnolia link roll. I'm just about the try the same thing. So not only do I like it, I'm using your example as a template.
I too like the link widget, John. I have yet to make bookmarking a consistent enough habit, but when I do I'll be looking for that ma.gnolia code.
The separate feed for your links is a nice touch, as I find links posts to be rather unexciting.
