I’ve written an exceedingly simple and braindead shell script pinger for use with Technorati. It uses the POST (lwp-request) utility that comes with libwww-perl library to deliver the ping message. Usage is as follows:
technorati <blogname> <blogurl>
The shell script is invoked whenever I add a new entry to my weblog. It’s been working for me, but I give no guarantees. Use at your own risk and do with it what you will.
