Today on the Veg, we salute the precursor to Jerry Springer and all the confrontational talk shows that followed. Ladies and gentlemen, Piper's Pit.

Good job, ppl. The power of the masses prevails.

Now if we could only get our shit together like this during a Presidential election.

Only six sites actually emailed me for a credit, so here goes with the linkslutting:

• The very first linkage came with a few mins of our post, from The Pen is Mightier - a blog which exists "So I can complain". A mission statement Robert Scoble would be proud of.

• Another link from The Ten Golden Rules, helps people profit from internet marketing. Well, it worked for us.

• A colleague of mine who's a very smart thinker in the new media space, Chris Abraham - although what I should really plug is his new venture Memes where you can day trade in trends, rumors and speculations. Pretty cool idea.

• Another colleague and friend, podcaster CC Chapman was the first to link to us via his Twitter stream - how Meta.

• Any blogger who has a picture of themselves in a wrestling mask gets my vote - here's Kliqueman's Bunch of Crap and Other Lies

• And Chris Penn, a fellow Twitterer, idles on the meme "Bum Rush". I'm thinking Homeless Frank should give us his thoughts on the subject
