Markdown also supports another scheme which I like, where you can 
[postpone][] the actual link until later - e.g. in a separate paragraph 
at the end of same section.

[postpone]: http://add.ress.to/postpone
  "link title -- showing when hovering, and helpful for blind people"

Hmm - now that I revisit the official Markdown syntax page it seems 
actually that above syntax is not MarkDown but (mixture? of Makdown and) 
MultiMarkdown.  Oh, whatever.  Works for me - and I find it quite 
readable.
