Smugpanel - show the world who links to you

Smugpanel is a JavaScript that will display a list of web sites that link to yours. You can fully customise the look and feel and the functionality by changing the parameters in the smugpanel.js script.

The following is an example of smugpanel:

The settings are:


appID:'chrisdabbles', 
url:'http://www.wait-till-i.com',
results:10,
header:'Sites that link to me:',
noDataMessage:'Couldn\'t find any sites linking to this one yet :(',
scriptID:'smugscript',
shuffleLinkLabel:'shuffle links',
shuffleLinkClass:'smugshuffle',
loading:'Loading...',

To add your own smugpanel, just do the following:

  1. Download the code
  2. Add the following to the HEAD of your page: 
    
<script type="text/javascript" src="smugpanel.js"></script>
  3. Customise the settings inside the smugpanel.js file to your needs.
  4. Add the following element in your document where you want the smugpanel to show: 
    
<div id="smugpanel"></div>

How it works

Magic. And Elf labour including pixie dust. Maybe it also simply uses the Yahoo! Site Explorer API, together with JSON search trickery, who knows?
