so.

Ellen's birthday is next week.

I'm putting together a treasure hunt for her. Clues are being planted at a bunch of the local places that she frequents -- parks, stores, playgrounds, etc. And I got the idea that it would be really cool if I could kick it off with a clue that you get by searching Google for "Ellen Seebacher's birthday."

So I need your help. I need people to add links to the birthday page I've set up, on pages that are indexed by Google and which Ellen is unlikely to visit on her own.

This may not work since I have only eight days left, and Google's reindexing engine is probably not that fast, but what the hell, I'm going to try anyway. If it doesn't pay off in time I can always just write the Google clue out of the hunt.

I'm told that Google reindexes weblogs more frequently than other pages. Which makes sense. So if you're willing to add a link to your blog, that would be especially helpful!

In other words, I need:

Links to http://www.unchi.org/birthday/
titled Ellen Seebacher's birthday
on web-indexed pages, especially blogs
which Ellen doesn't read. (e.g. LiveJournals that aren't on her friends list)

If you need help figuring out whether Ellen reads your blog or not, the answer is probably "no" but I can peek at the history & bookmarks on her machine. :-)

Thank you all so so much for your help on my windmill-tilting venture!
