Link works fine from here. I was hoping, however, it would never get mentioned on Metafilter...

There is some weird DNS thing going on whereby for some www.linklust.com works, and for others linklust.com does. We (or our host) haven't been able to figure it out yet.

Has this been mentioned before on MeFi? Certainly on MeTa I think. Not to knock the link because it's a fine enterprise (and I nabbed user #74, so Iget to moan about how it 'isn't the same'). Just a query.

user #100.

Booyah.

i know, i feel bad... i've never even been to europe.

the only thing the page that i don't like is that the script at the beginning is doing hella reloads with my opera browser. i have to visit using IE.

How can I tell what my user # is? I signed up early and decided not to post it here at MeFi until it had gained some traction with multiple posts per day. I like it.

From the about page: However, we would like the main focus of this site to be on European links, news and events, as there already are plenty of good outlets for our New World cousins.

"New World"? Kind of a Columbus thing going on, huh?

I claim Linklust.com and all its riches, etc. etc.

Heh, if you're there early, I adopted it already. (I was "holgate" on plastic.com [#178] before it got out of beta.)
