Why using a:link ?
<a> </a> means that the word inside is a link
a { color:blue; text-decoration:underline; }
is the same as setting
a:link { color:blue; text-decoration:underline; }
Link is a redundant tag
No, it isn't. Think about these:
<a onclick="">foo</a>
<a href="">bar</a>
a {} matches both, and :link matches only the second one.
Additionally :link matches only unvisited, inavctive, nonfocused links,
but a{} sets all at once.
:link will become very important in XHTML2 where
every element can have href attribute.
