WordPress 2.3 Incoming Links Coming From Your Own Site?

I always like to see where I am getting links from on the dashboard of my WordPress admin page. After I upgraded from WordPress 2.2 to 2.3 I noticed all of the links were from my own site! Well, it is true that some of my pages link to my own site and technically all of them do with the menu and header on every page but I obviously don’t care about that really. I want to see what other sites are linking to me.

A simple search found me the answer. WordPress 2.2 was using Technorati to discover the links and WordPress 2.3 uses Google. I found this advice helpful:

on lines 11 and 12 in index-extra.php to
“http://feeds.technorati.com/cosmos/rss/?url=”
and
“http://www.technorati.com/search/”

which I found on http://wordpress.org/support/topic/135548
