In Technorati world, it's what the site does when it checks your blog to pick up new posts, or conversely, what your blog does to alert Technorati that a new post is up. Blogger should do it automatically, but you have to have to setting enabled. I think some people don't, and other systems might not do it automatically either, so if the authors don't alert the site by clicking on "ping", then it can be weeks before Technorati does it automatically.Esteban Vázquezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09738869673774603152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547653347296107692.post-18807698268514816312008-09-15T20:16:00.000+02:002008-09-15T20:16:00.000+02:00Well, I think it's good that I don't have the link...Well, I think it's good that I don't have the link anymore. To be honest, I was wasting a lot of time looking at how much time was spent on it and from where. <BR/><BR/>By the way, what's a "ping"?Phil Sumpterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16491514886782881340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547653347296107692.post-21986564468410352392008-09-15T17:19:00.000+02:002008-09-15T17:19:00.000+02:00Well, I didn't change my SiteMeter code, and as fa...Well, I didn't change my SiteMeter code, and as far as I can tell mine still works! StatCounter is actually very good, and for some reason it identifies IP locations that SiteMeter misses (but maybe this is part of what the new SiteMeter corrects?).<BR/><BR/>As for Technorati, I have no idea. Mine will show no new links for weeks at a time, and then show several at once. It's maddening! I do suppose, however, that this has something to do with how often blog authors "ping" their blogs.Esteban Vázquezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09738869673774603152noreply@blogger.com
