 		Yeah, but see Bloggerator's been taken... (I should search first, but meh!)

So, I change to "Blarecast" (Blog-Share-broadcast).

This is final, pending legal review by complete strangers I have only internet experience with. (And I DON'T mean the escort service!) Laughing

Friendly advice: pinging probably isn't the best way to go, as there are alot of people abusing those systems (comment spam, trackback spam and ping spam are a complete pain in the tuckus.) We tried a joint pinging system once, but finally realized if we were pulling the RSS from "trusted sites" (instead of trying to figure who among the people pushing pings should be trusted) that many of the hair-pulling problems went away.

The trade-off is that the updates go from instant to delayed (to say once an hour.)

Hey, where'd your happy Hawaiian shirt man go??

I did find a plugin for Wordpress which scrapes RSS from different sites, like you mentioned above. Most all blogging software will create RSS feeds by category, so you could make an ARG category for inclusion in the group blog. Space is going to take a look at it later to see if it will work.

 		Especially since I am still fantasizing about those freaking awesome frozen mint juleps. Seriously. One of the most refreshing and delicious drinks I've ever had in my life.

And after seeing a mint julep appear in one of her isketch drawings, I can verify that she is still fantasizing about them. Very Happy
