Advanced Insert Link window in the upcoming version

November 30, 2005 by Dmitry

BlogJet 1.6 (will be released soon) will have the advanced Insert Link window.

BlogJet - Insert Link

First of all, you can assign titles to your links (Jacob Nielsen would love it! See Weblog Usability: The Top Ten Design Mistakes, 4th mistake). Title attribute usually shows up as a hint in visual browsers: try me.

Secondly, you can use rel attribute. In blogs this attribute is mostly used in two ways:

  1. If you assign nofollow to it, the web site that you linked to won’t benefit (in terms of search engines rank) from having a link on your blog (use it to link to bad sites ).
  2. If you assign tag to it, the link becomes a tag for your post. For example: , , software, , , . (More about tags: Technorati Help).

Get ready to better linking with BlogJet 1.6!

    Waiting patiently… The rel=tag feature will be handy for people who haven’t built this into their default templates.

    I’ve seen conflicting information about how to get Technorati to recognize tags correctly. Any complete explanation of how to make this happen? (The technorati page isn’t complete.) Specifically, can I pass the tag in the category tag of my web feed? If I must have a rel=tag URL in my content, what is treated as the name of the tag?

    I agree with Jack on waiting patiently and the explanation request. I’ve had some difficulty with posting to MT 3.2, but with all these new features, I’m completely sold on BlogJet 1.6!

    Jack: not sure about feed, but the name of a tag is the text of link [a href=… rel=tag]TAG_NAME[/a]

    Links titles is a feature I’ve wanted. Good to see it’s coming “soon”.

    I’ve been using 1.6 build 40 and have put the group posting to good use. Keep up the great work!
