TRACKBACK is the earliest is a small feature on the Movable Type. It can be said that this small function has set off a revolution in the blog.
TRACKBACK is a function of connecting countless blogs around the world. For example, when you read a website article, you want to write your own feelings. This time the discussion function that uses the website prepared to make contributions is the most common practice. But this is just written down your comments to the other people's website, but you have not left anything.
TRACKBACK is very different from it. You can write your comments to your website. Then send the URL of the web page to the server published by the original article, some text, website name and other information (Note). Although this process is just called "sending Trackback ping", but through this approach, some information such as URL, title and other information is left in the original article. Of course, others can also send TRACKBACK PINs to the original article, so they will record all comments including your Trackback Ping in the original article.
In addition, if you also set up the trackback ping feature on your website, then you can publish your opinion by trackback ping. In this way, many websites are connected by related topics. Various comments are connected in the Internet. This creates a completely different culture with a diary website.
Note: The send address uses the URL specified by the original article, this URL is called "Trackback Ping Url". The last "128" is a dedicated number of the original article, called "Trackback ID". In addition, TRACKBACK's technical standards published on the BLOG website of "Lowlife.jp".
Today, suddenly, I have a lot of excavation in my blog. I found it in Google, I found that I really didn't really understand blog. Today, I finally understood what TB is TRACKBACK, now test it. I read TRACKBACK to make me so painful articles. In fact, the principle of Trackback is very simple, it is a reverse reference. It is called "reference link" in Blog. However, such a simple technical treatment is just the essence of Blog. Blog's spirit is sharing, interacting, if there is a lack of TB, then the blog we say is just equivalent to an open electronic notice, there is nothing worth studying. And TB is a key technique that makes up a community. Simply talk about the method of use of Trackback. There is a "reference address" when you publish a log in the blog, just fill in the reference address provided by the BLOG in the blog you want to quote. This will automatically display your article in someone's Blog, and you will show your name, or even part of your blog. This way he can come to your blog through a "reference". As far as it is, it is called "reverse link". Coincidentally, yesterday inadvertently looked at the "Netizen World" in the "Netizen World" of the students in Chinese blog. The author Daniel pointed out the current situation of Chinese blog, too many comments, almost no references. This is not the spirit and technology of blog, perhaps, this is the reason why China Blog is hot. Many people know blog, but I dare to say, there is definite person to understand what is TRACKBACK! Today, I went to see the blog of each of their websites, there was no success TB, and some people didn't have TB. what a pity. When I tested, I found that the TB of MSN Space seems to be, I don't know if my blog has bug or what is going on, which is relatively depressed. Like RSS subscriptions, I believe that there is TRACKBACK, there is a full sense of Blog.

Simply put, Trackback is a way to advertise each other between websites and websites. It allows the A to B. In this case, a ping is a short message from a web server to another (A Small Message).

For example to explain it. For example, I looked at the article I was interested in the blog. I have some views on this article. If I follow the traditional BBS practice, I need to express my comment under this article, but If I do this, my text can only exist on the website of the fish, I can't maintain this comment. Another situation is that I am also writing a similar article in my blog. I hope that the fish head can take a look at my, traditional BBS habits still get a reply from the fish head. , Put my URL passed. But with trackback ping, our blog no longer needs this. Blog is a bit important and BBS, Blog is a personal creation, using blog to express your own things, save your own things, even for the comments of others BLOG, you must stay in your own blog forever. With TRACKBAK, I can publish an article in my own blog, and put the URL address of this article ping to the article of the fish head.

Various comments are connected to each other on both Internet. As a result, TrackBack creates Blog and BBS, Diary completely different cultures, and Blog's world becomes a true unlimited interconnection through Trackback.
