It is an understandable situation. Many would want to experience such a milestone

But it is very odd that there is no one has thought collecting email ids and inform the interested people once all is ok !

It would be a good opportunity to test Yahoo! Groups!

There is even no link to Yahoo!

The next best feature for Google Webmaster Tools Links

Tuesday, February 6th, 2007

The new feature in Google Webmaster Tools Discover your links is very useful

The next best feature would be to show the summary of domains that link to the page and then the details

e.g., Imagine 1000 links to 1 page… But 600 from the same domain and 300 from another and 100 from many..

Seeing many pages full of blogtree.com is not useful !
