I've run into problems with blogrolling before and realized that if they shut their doors, it'd loose all of my links! I've been manually creating backup link pages from my site periodically. There was talk about releasing the blogrolling code publically so that people can run it on their own servers but I guess the guy realized he's sitting on a potential goldmine and has yet to release the code.
