[Useless]

If you can fit all of your category links onto recip without making it huge, then go for it. When it comes to recip size for link lists, I just like to be able to place three of them per row comfortably without going wider than 700-750.

I wonder what the search engine gurus think of this. Would this have a negative impact from that end?

Personaly, I like indivdual category recips. But I have been drinking a lot lately.
