Hi

I'm new to this tribe and recently set up www.maxblumberg.com on typepad.

I have two questions and wonder whether anyone here might be able to point me in the right direction please:

1. How do I use trackback when I reference someone else's blog? I mean I can see that they have a trackback URL, but I am not sure where to put it in my blog.

2. I publish a bi-monthly newsletter to my blog readers. Currently, I use ConstantContact to collect subscribers' email addresses on my blog, but do not use their facility to actually send my newsletter (I just use regular email). Since this costs $15/month, I wondered if there was a more cost-effective means of collecting subscribers' email addresses?

Thanks

Max
