To the question about linking to unlaunched websites - I do it (rarely) solely to get my URL indexed in Google so the domain age starts ticking. That's the only reason to do it and I'm sure most people don't know of it.
I just assumed that others did it to pretend like they have something to show for the year(s) they've spent online - even though they may not.
