I am seeing a massive increase in pingbacks of late and thakfully Akismet catches them. I generally only allow those which are relevant to the topic on my post and only then after I have visited the site in question. as to their value? well as I understand it, they really only help your visitors. In as much as they may wish to explore the site that has left the pingabck. Your visitors may see this as an added value to your site offering continuous content. Graham
