Attention association blogoclump
For the most part, you're the only ones who used the trackback feature, and then it has only been about once every six weeks. Because we were getting (and this is no exaggeration) about 1 trackback spam every 3 minutes (or about 500 a day) we turned the feature off. The spam filters were catching all of them, but unfortunately were catching yours, too, so we had to painfully go in and review the spam and delete a couple times a day. So no more trackbacks, sorry. Feel free to drop a comment that says "I commented on this post in my blog."
By the way, most readers might be asking, what's the association blogoclump? I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, but I think David Gammel coined that term, or at least used it to describe this collection of bloggers.

I did, in fact, coin the term. My enduring contribution to the field. :)

I should add that it is a play on the word 'blogosphere' which is currently defined on Wikipedia as:
"the collective term encompassing all blogs as a community or social network. Many weblogs are densely interconnected; bloggers read others' blogs, link to them, reference them in their own writing, and post comments on each others' blogs. Because of this, the interconnected blogs have grown their own culture."
My joke was that we had so few association bloggers at the time that we formed a clump instead of a sphere.
