Back to Blogging
I’ve been wanting to get back to writing here, but I’ve kept putting it off until I had something worthwhile. Classic procrastination pattern, that.
Well, as of now I’m breaking that pattern!

Since the release of 1.5, WordPress has included an “update-links” program that you can call periodically to check the latest updated time of the links in your link roll. This program queries Pingomatic, which returns a list links and update times.
However, if the links in your database are of the format “http://www.timeistight.com,” the Pingomatic API won’t recognize them, even if the site pings Pingomatic religously; the Pingomatic API responds only to links without the “www,” e.g., “http://timeistight.com”.
May 31st Update: This has now been fixed. Also, Matt Mullenweg says that “Ping-O-Matic is now parsing several sources including weblogs.com for update information, so the quality of updates should be as good or better as when everyone was manually parsing changes.xml.”
Reading Peeking Into Google makes me wonder if I’ll live to see Google achieve sentience.
