A simple function to show blog posts linking back to any article, similar to [google backlinks](http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?answer=42533). 
== Description ==

As many people still (for some strange reason) insist on using blogger which [does not support trackbacks](http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=42304) very often you do not see the full number of return links

This plugin uses a [simple google blog search](http://blogsearch.google.com/) to find articles linking to your posts and lists them in a simple format, ordered by date.

**Important Notes**

* This plugin requires the [Simplepie Core plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simplepie-core) in order to work.

== Installation ==

1. Extract the directory
1. Upload `/backlinks/` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
1. Place `<?php if (function_exists('backlinks')) backlinks(); ?>` in a page template, a widget or in your sidebar.

== Screenshots ==

1. A page with a lot of incoming links

== Other Notes ==

* Caching is not yet enabled.
* At the moment the plugin returns only the most recent 100 links
* You can link directly to the backlinks in any page by using the #backlinks anchor
