hi doug, sorry for not responding sooner to your post. my experience with this type of service has been with blink.com. initially i was quite enthusiastic with what they had going for them (the ability to access one's bookmarks or favorite places from any computer), but i only used the feature two times and found it to be a nuisance to always update my stored links. but that's not bad. what annoys me is that i am unable to turn off the 'blink reports' or whatever it is that they call their spam. i prefer to be able to unsubscribe to any newsletter right in the body of the email, or if i have to travel to their site, i expect my actions to take effect. not the case for me with this blink outfit. i know this is not a fair reaction to your post about hotlinks.com, but i felt like sharing the experience i've had with blink. i now believe that they derived their name from the fact that every time you blink, they send you spam. :) mark
