Patrick said...: In the book thread, I tried to link to the books I recommended. I clicked on the Althouse Amazon portal, then searched the book, and clicked on it. That link did not contain the "althouse" in the url that would signify that it went through the Althouse portal.

Any ideas?; 7/7/12, 10:40 AM

Ann Althouse said...: @Patrick Use my Amazon search box in the sidebar. The first link you go to from there will have "althouse" in it, but if you click further it won't. So you have to use the first link after using my search box.

If you go in through my link and buy something before leaving, even if you make a number of clicks, I'll get credit. But to make a link that will be an althouse entry with that effect, you need to have a URL with "althouse."; 7/7/12, 11:06 AM

Is there a way to add that to any Amazon link? Like a specific place we could put the Althouse?; 7/7/12, 2:22 PM

Lyrics, follow along.; 7/7/12, 5:48 PM
