So, with the introduction of pingbacks LiveJournal is making another step towards becoming a fully-featured blogging platform in addition to all its other half-fulfilled possibilities.  This user, who has a lot of interesting stuff to say about LJ in general, wrote up a quick guide to pingbacks.  And over here we have someone who thinks the pingback bot is cute and likes to see it appear on her comments page.  So not only do I get to see what happens with two links in the same entry, but also what happens when you edit the entry from friends-only (which produces no pingbacks) to public (which should), and if all of that works when setting the pingback option open on a single post.

Here we go.
