ping I got the de-duper working, so now blogToaster is being feed from both blo.gs and weblogs.com. As blo.gs is event driven rather then polling like I'm doing for weblogs.com, you should notice that you get toasted much quicker if the blog pings blo.gs

ping I hooked up to the blo.gs notification interface, I should get a callback when this post pings them. Update: Cool, it worked!. now comes the task of trying to de-dup the notifications with the data I'm polling out of weblogs.com.

Slightly uniform interfaces There's a lot of power in uniform interfaces, for one, it means I can write a single tool that should work with any server that implements that uniform interface. In reality, it seems that the various XML-RPC based blogging API's are slightly uniform interfaces, all the implementations are kind of the same, but different, for example, Moveable Type doesn't implement metaWeblog.getCategories, Radio's implementation of blogger.getUsersBlogs doesn't return a blogname value in the response. In metaweblog.getRecentPosts, Radio and MoveableType return different types for the userid value. I have an even greater respect now for the number of different webloging tools that NetNewsWire supports.
