I think this best describes it
LinkBacks (Trackbacks, Pingbacks and Refbacks) allow you to notify another site that you wrote something related to what is written on a specific page. This improves the chances of contributors to this page noticing that you gave them credit for something, or that you improved upon something they wrote. With LinkBacks, websites are interconnected. Think of them as the equivalents of acknowledgments and references at the end of an academic paper, or a chapter in a textbook.

awesome. does that have anything with the permalink in paranthesis on the top right hand corner of each post??

I guess you could say so.. watch how your address bar (the final numbers) change when you click on the permalinks for the different posts. I guess it makes it easier to cut and paste that.

Honestly.. I never use any of those features on the horse side.
