AtomPingAPI


Atom can be used as a WeblogPing API in alternative to the old school XML-RPC weblogUpdates.ping method.

How ?

Just post Atom top/feed level elements on the PingServer :

POST /AtomPing HTTP/1.1
Host: pingomatic.com
Content-Type: application/x.atom+xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ping version="0.3" xmlns="http://purl.org/atom/ns#">
        <title>dive into mark</title>
        <link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://diveintomark.org/"/>
        <link rel="alternate" type="application/x.atom+xml" href="http://diveintomark.org/xml/atom.xml"/>
        <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://diveintomark.org/xml/rss.xml"/>
