Infinite Backlinks

[IanJohnson]

If you are creating hundreds or thousands of backlinks for a new blog in a short time from RSS, is there a risk of being sent to Google hell? I've heard that getting too many backlinks too quickly from limited sources can be deemed "unnatural" and damage your ranking.

How much value does this kind of backlink have in relation to other, more natural types? Does the sheer volume make up for the "cheapness" or is there a point of diminishing returns?

A wealth of great info there, Dean.
Where do you find RSS directories to submit to?
I found 100s, but which ones are any good? Is there a list of top 10 rss dirs, or something similar?
