Somebody needs to keep the language dynamic. Part of the fun and challenge of newly interacting with any group is learning the language, including "blogger language." I like the term "linky thinking," too. Can't honestly say I always follow ALL the links on this, or any other blog, but click on some. Have been known to return at a later time, or even bookmark one for later reading, but a greater risk I might not get back to it. As for your being a neologist, why not?

You're talking to someone about something of interest or passion to you and / or her or him, and she or he is talking with you, too .. and you keep thinking of things you've read here or there via a link .. that would add much to a given point or another in the conversation. You want to mention it / show it, but damn, that browser's not on your sleeve (yet). It happens to me all the time ... Ever notice yourself practicing what I once called “linky thinking” ?

I always follow your links! Why, I must be a "highly accomplished web surfer with excellent command of the browser’s back-button" after all.

Alva Scruggs (not his real name)</blockquote> I don't like to whine about this, Frank, but that is my real name. I had it changed to that legally for sound reasons. My parents started me off in the world with the evil moniker, "Demosthenes Alexandrovich Huppstein-Lifschultz". In consequence, by the time I was eleven I knew how to make shanks from the rulers we were issued as part of our school kit. A kindly fellow, much like you Frank, took pity on me, He suggested that it would make sense to change my name and be able thereby to stop stabbing my classmates. There were sighs of relief all around when I made it de facto at thirteen and a three day party when I made it de jure at eighteen.
