In this forum we all have very preconceived ideas of what the term "Link List" means. But if we can push those away for a minute and consider that to a surfer those two words might seem to indicate that it would be a list of links. Exactly that, a list of links, and maybe not much more at all.

So maybe give them what the name might lead them to expect.

Maybe simplicity of design along with links that are actually of value to the surfer would make something worth saving and sharing.

Simple, clean, valuable...list of links.
Yeah, I am not even thinking of anything at all link list-like at this point. I like free site submitters, even if I think they're nuts, that's probably the only reason I tend to cling to the concept of the link list. I prefer to see gallery submissions and the types of pages you submit. At the same time, as you know, I have always tried to break away from the simple definition of a link list. Link lists, to me, are boring as fuck. They lack visual appeal. I am searching for a feature that will make them bookmark-able on the modern ever-changing Net.
