Based on the links between weblogs, it will try to find a path between any two you specify.</i></p></blockquote> <p>Maybe needs some work, though: It's not really fair to accept <a href="http://www.myelin.co.nz/ecosystem/">blogging ecosystem</a> or <a href="http://www.abstractdynamics.org/">abstract dynamics</a> as blogs since these and many others are really automated blogrolls -- pathways are artificially short since using Myelin.co.uk as a hop is kind of silly -- that's where Downhill takes their data so it's automatically a bridge point and thus all paths should be two hops max, so with the ecosystem turning up in the path between here and <a href="http://www.rebeccablood.net/">RebeccaBlood.net</a> why wouldn't it show up in the reverse path?</p> <p>Nevertheless, a fun game. </p> http://blog.teledyn.com/node/1050#comments here comes everybody Sat, 28 Jun 2003 21:03:20 -0400 mrG 1050 at http://blog.teledyn.com
