Ping-o-Matic! pings ten services to let them know that you’ve updated your weblog. Eventually if you ping Ping-o-Matic! it will in turn notify everybody for you.
Not of huge use as I can see to weblog software like MovableType but handy for folks using Blogger and Live Journal.

Actually, once we implement ping queuing, it will be very useful even to those whose software has pinging built-in. Because this will eliminate the posting delays that occur when one of the ping services is being slow.
I do manually ping weblogs.com sometimes when they are down. The occasional failure of the other guys doesn’t bother me.
Don’t know if it is worth mentioning but weblogs.com refuses pings with ’sex’ in them. I manually ping one weblog using a different name. Another has it in the path so I ping using a subdomain that exists only for pinging them.
Of course the bogus blogs that ping, hoping for a little page rank, don’t use that string in their names.
