Linkrolling

I’ve been trying to come up with a term for the current fad of linking each word in a phrase to something different. The best I’ve been able to come up with is linkrolling. It’s similar to blogrolling, defined as a list of links… [that] are usually connected in some way and located usually on the same page as the weblog, in a column on the side . Linkrolling, then, is blogrolling in the small: providing a list of links in a compact inline form.

[Update, later: okay, so I’m just coining a new meaning for the term. Note that most of the sites listed currently use linkrolling interchangeably, and often redundantly, with blogrolling. I stand by my definition, and have discovered a new term in the process: thanklink.]
