The one Trackback there was was simply a quoting of the original post. Completely worthless.

I'd say that's throwing the baby out with the bathwater. But then again, I'm the one with Trackback turned on.

If someone has anything important to say, my attitude has been that they can leave a comment. Or, if they don't comment, and they don't tell you that they said something interesting on their blog, you're likely to see it anyway through your referrer logs.

True. And a good point.
I don't think I have ever used TrackBack just to replicate something. Normally, I use it in circumstances where I would comment; but I would like the freedom to use my own site where I can more closely control formatting, displaying, editing and such i.e. a much bigger "comment" that I "own" on my own site. Plus, when I do TrackBack to something, I usually add my own "nay-saying from the peanut gallery" that I like leave so my two readers can supply their own comments about how I am wrong ;-)
I guess it just depends on how you use it. Blogs that don't support it are no big deal. (But, blogs without a "preview" button are a pain ;-)

One day, I will have a preview button again (I lost it when I moved to my CMS), and I'll have "subscriptions" so people can be notified when there's a new comment. Someday.
