“Oh no! A page full of links! My poor eyes! My poor, poor eyes!”

~ Oscar Wilde on Links

L-ink is a special type of ink used to write information on WWW pages. It comes in millions of colours but appears most often in black.

[edit] Origins of L-Ink

L-Ink is one of a series of inks designed to be used on computers, L-Ink was developed specifically for use on web pages. Here are some CHEESE short descriptions of L-Ink's predecessors.

• A-Ink was the first ink available for use on computer screens, in fact many computers which were limited to using A-Ink are still in use today. A-Ink was only available in one colour, which was green. This worked out well as computers only came with back screens. The main drawback to A-Ink was that if it was left on the screen too long it would leave a sticky residue inside the screen.
• B-Ink was the second ink available for use on computer screens, like A-Ink, many computers which were limited to using B-Ink are still in use today. B-Ink was available in one of three colours, which were green, amber, and white. Unfortunately B-Ink could only be used with one of the available colours at one time. B-Ink was still prone to leaving a sticky residue inside the screen.
• C-Ink was a short lived version of computer ink as the blue variety tended to run off of the screen, and gum up the keys on the keyboard.
• D-Ink was used almost exclusively in early macintoshes as it was only visible on black and white television screens.
• E-Ink was an early leap foreward in sharpness but was only available in black. This was a drawback when screens were only available in black, but E-Ink has seen a re-insurgence of interest since the invention of E-Mail. E-Ink today is used in tandem with other computer inks when handling plain text, such as in the plain text E-Mail, which is mostly virus free.
• F-Ink is a special ink developed specifically for application in government operated computers. It was actually the first computer ink to come in more than 16,000 consecutive colours, all but 8 of which are shades of gray. F-Ink is very expensive and cumbersome to use, which unfortunately has had a lingering effect on the efficiency of governmental instittutions.
• G-Ink was completely skipped over to honour the untimely death of Al Gore shortly after he invented the internet.
• H-Ink is a little known ink, because it hides by blending into the background until someone rubs it with a cursor.
• I-Ink is a propietary ink available for use only in Apple products. You can discern the use of I-Ink by a device's name. i.e.: iPod iMac, or iRon. While fun, I-Ink has the drawback of reducing those who are given to prolonged exposure into sniveling piles of trendy accessories.
• J-Ink isn't used because it's not funny.
• K-Ink is used exclusively in conjunction with porn, because it turns sad lonely women into brazen hussies, and dweebie nerds into rippling man-meat.
• L-Ink See L-Ink[[.]]
• M-Ink was very furry and therefore difficult to typeset. It's use was discontinued after the mass autodefenestration of the entire Manbottle Society in the early naughties, (who to this day claim that rumors of there death are highly exaggerated).
• N-Ink went mad, so they shot him[[.]]
• O-Ink was popularised by members of the constabulary as far back as the early 15th century, and is still in common use in courtrooms today.
• P-Ink had a big hit with "go away, come back", until it was revealed that she absolutely zero talent, and small boobs.
• Q-Ink proved so popular with special agents that it was simultaneously banned by the CIA and syndicated by the BBC.
• R-Ink just went round and round until it fell on it's bum.
• S-Ink disappeared without a trace.
• T-Ink was popular in the gay community.
• U-Ink you ink was very popular with [[[insert Link here]]].
• V-Ink V-ink was was responsible for the assasination of the well known and much Loved Prick (BindI Erwin's) twin Sister
• W-Ink went out of fashion as most users found it too difficult to diddle the mouse with one eye shut.
• X-Ink commonly confused with a crosslink[[.]] ???? FIX ME ????[[.]]
• Z-Ink sadly passed away after a long battle with melanoma.

[edit] Uses of L-Ink

L-Ink can, when used wisely and appropriately, make a page (whether on the World Wide Wait or on Uncyclopedia) popular, useful and a work to be proud of. L-Ink has even helped people to become either rich or popular, but never both.

L-Ink is most often associated with the practice of attaching something inside of another thing. Because this is a property peculiar to L-Ink it lends itself superbly to use in teh interweb. This practice of putting things inside text has come to be known as linking because people don't like hyphenating words.

Did you know!?: 42% of all links are just pointless redirects?

On the flip side of the coin, too much linking can make a page almost completely useless.
