More on Backlinks v. G-Trackbacks

Carla and Rebecca have tried to implement backlinks which are blogger-specific inline versions of what I called g-trackbacks

Neither will work with blogger blogs properly unless you first change your site feed settings to FULL descriptions- the summary setting strips out all html and therefore all links from the feed, therefore meaning that your links elsewhere will not be picked up!

This is further confirmation in case we didn’t know it already that google blogsearch is working entirely on RSS feeds. If my change to full post feed is problematic for anyone, please let me know.
