You can use webmaster tools for your own sites but otherwise you can use the link: command in Google. However the link: command doesn't show all the links.

Yahoo does the best job of showing all inbound links.

Google webmaster tools will show all external links for your website.

The link: operator does not work...!!!

If I use link: and my domain, it shows 2 links lol. But if I check in Google webmaster tools, I have 532.

I agree that Yahoo updates it's domainlink: function much quicker than Google but I would guess that it doesn't add a specific weight to each link and counds them all equal whereas google probably uses some algorithm to rank each link lol.

Right. I read somewhere that Google only shows a few links because it would take to much to process every inbound link request if they showed every link.
