CNET News.com Now Supports Trackbacks!

Uncategorized 1 Minute

This is just awesome to see – a major news outlet supporting social media technology. CNET’s News.com now supports trackbacks and pingbacks:

CNET News.com is pleased to introduce support for TrackBack and Pingback as additional tools to help readers follow the flow of interactive content. Anyone linking to a CNET News.com story who sends the proper notification will get a link back in return.

Makes me much more likely to link to a story at News.com than to the same story somewhere else that doesn’t support trackbacks. Now lets hope more media outlets follow suit!
