They can be enabled/disabled. I think that both sites have to have them enabled to work. In short, if you link to my blog within a post on your blog, your blog notifies my blog. My blog goes out and snips part of that post, and drops it in as a Pingback ('comment') on my that post of my blog... Pingbacks (aka Trackbacks) are built-in to blogs. They can be enabled/disabled.

The one above was a blast to read.  It’s all about, you guessed it, body language and it’s written in a humorous way.  I went to the mall (see this link for other great people watching places) the other day and tested my new knowledge as I watched a dude try to sell something to a lady.  I couldn’t hear them but could tell it wasn’t going well for him.  At the end of it, I wanted to go over there and tell him how he was missing the seriously negative gestures that the lady was making and offer a few pointers.  I didn’t…I don’t like salesmen anyway so he can keep failing as far as I’m concerned.  Anyway, if you want to know how people really feel, pick up this book.  Probably great for poker players too.
