Popurls is a great resource site.

I can scan down through the page -- look and see what's popular... what's buzzing and hot at the moment, and then write an article on the same topic.

If I'm not up to writing a new post... I can simply visit the "hot" buzzing article, make a comment on the page (if it is in my niche) - and have a link back to my blog.

Or, I can do like I sometimes do -- write a post about that post if it is a Wordpress blog - link to their post within my post and possibly get a trackback.

Popurls is a great brain storming tool... be sure to check it out.

If something is really buzzing and just picking up speed…
