This is extremely well-known, in terms of selection and network effect.

The problem is that it's very, very, hard for even a determined group of M-listers to promote themselves, and even so, it just doesn't match the power of an A-lister.

This is what EXPONENTIAL means :-(

As someone who is new to blog usage. I have noticed three simple points about writing blog posts. These are probably obvious to you. The first is that if you comment on someone else's blog those comments do not appear on Technorati, the second is that comments do not appear on the main RSS feed.,a nd the third is that comments are not tagged. So to get proper exposure, it makes sense to comment on your own blog about posts on other blogs. Another point is that you can edit your posts on your own blog. All these combine to create the link-farming you mention in your post.

Of course, I should really have posted this on my own blog, so I will do that right now. No more comments for me ;)
