The Daily Ping

The Ping is self-aware.

Blogtrack

One site I’ve grown to enjoy since its debut several weeks ago is BlogTrack which makes keeping track of frequently changing blogs an easy task. It works especially well if you have a set group of sites that you visit throughout the day: one visit to BlogTrack and it will check your sites for you and let you know which ones have new content.

There are a few blogs it seems to have some trouble with, reporting changes even when there aren’t any, but it manages to overlook most minor changes (like a comment counter increasing or other similarly dynamic text).

It’s a free service and I believe it’s still in beta. You can monitor up to 20 sites 20 times a day.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
