Talk:Linklog

Isn't this really a "link roll"? That is what [http://del.icio.us/help http://del.icio.us/help] refers to them as. I'll clarify and make a redirect from "link roll" to this soon if there's no discussion, though I think "r_Linklog - jdsiouewkrñ.f,msdjkcg<Fcendejas 18:36, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Generally a collection of links attached to a regular blog is a link roll (or more commonly a blogroll) -- a blog which consists primarily or entirely of links to other stuff is a linkblog. Not that I have any citations whatsoever to back that up, but that seems to be the most common usage of the terms IMO. -- anonymous user who doesn't have an account 6 Dec 2006

How about some samples, or examples, of Linklogs. I think we're talking about something that is not a part of another thing, in this case a blog, but a stand-alone Linklog, or at least something that is pretty close to something that stands alone. If, however, a linklog is in fact a link roll, blogroll, or some other standard part of a blog, this term should be retired. Personally, I am not aware of any link only blogs, but I'd love to discover some. --TMH 23:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, here's popular Scoble's LinkBlog http://www.google.com/reader/shared/14480565058256660224 --Not Logged In user yuvipanda

:The term linklog appears to broader. Link roll is probably just a more modern slag for linklog. Please review the references I just added to the article which trace the term back to PBX systems back as far as 1993. Further research could likely produce older references to the term.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

{{ping|David Condrey}} can you defend your edits here? I think you're taking a few un-related places where the words "Link" and "Log" appear next to each other, and claiming they're related. The article (for most of its history) described a linklog as a blog with links, which appears to have minimal (but some) usage. The definition you give feels completely fake. power~enwiki (π, ν) 16:59, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

This article does a poor job of attempting to document two very different meanings for "linklog" which have nothing to do with each other and make the page confusing:

• Linkblog - as defined in the article as a user feature / application
• Link log - the thing in the image, presumably "feature of computing systems" / telco systems (PBX)

I propose:

• split the article into two different stubs, as there is enough material for each, and each if separately notable. E.g.
• linkblog - the user feature/application - this is a much more common / specific term for this practice
• link log - The jjk thesis (and the image which came from there apparently) uses "link log" and the Avaya citation says "link-log". Zero use of a single word "linklog".
• Turn linklog into a disambiguation page for both of those ^^^
