Skill Level:

Intermediate. You'll need to be familiar with the structure of your blog's template, and with the functions of Blogger's conditional tags.

Description:

A dynamic alternative to Blogger's backlinks feature. This version adds significant features, including showing the opening lines of the linking post when you hover over the title and, most importantly, allowing your readers to access the backlinks for your backlinks by following the ~> link. See a demo in the sidebar of Greg's Speccy blog, under "posts that link here" in the sidebar.

Method:

Add the code to call a script in the head of your template, and code to display the backlinks in your template where you want the list of links to appear. The required chunks of code are available on Freshblog
