Patrick–I moved cyclone busting comments to http://rankexploits.com/musing.....onebuster/ . I want this thread to stick to suggests for the link entry form.

Others: If you enter a url, the form will now check for duplicates.

Slightly OT, but once you’ve collected these links, it might be interesting to look at the spread of these blogs, how they cover different subjects and appeal to different audiences, and how they evolve (or not). WUWT, as an example, seems to be more of a central link now than providing much in the way of original work (or at least the ratio is changed) and people are maybe using their own blogs more as a way of presenting their ideas.

Scooter– adding a “check link” feature is a plan!

In the final version, if you put just above the form a reminder to “First check if it’s already in the climate links page!” may reduce wasted time by submitters and reviewers.

If the links page gets large, consider adding a “Check link” button so submitters can check if a link exists before filling in all of the form.

Some of the sites are more technically oriented than others. A site which wades through statistics or data doesn’t seem to quite belong in a “General climate” category. Or, perhaps, it’s a shame that not all “General climate” sites aren’t more statistics and data oriented.
