Pragmatic Automation and Social Bookmarking

Mike Clark mentioned my Ant dependencies article on Pragmatic Automation last week. For a low traffic site such as Exubero, it’s easy to look in the referrer logs to see how that reference has spread to various other blogs. I was relatively surprised about the effect that social bookmarking has on propagating ideas. I haven’t paid much attention to the phenomenon before, but the multiplier effect on the incoming referrers certainly made me look a lot closer.
