A plea for pings
9th March 2003
Blogs I would read a lot more often if only they pinged weblogs.com when they updated:
Without pings, they languish at the bottom of my blogroll where I won’t notice or visit them. My blogroll is my only mechanism for keeping track of the blogs that I read regularly—aggregators just don’t do it for me, and with tabbed browsing my blogroll is almost as efficient for staying up to date.
It doesn’t have to be weblogs.com—a ping to blo.gs would be just as effective.
