Download (23k)

Installation:

Download the tool and place it in your Radio Tools folder, then restart Radio. The Tool comes with blo.gs, blo.gs extended, Syndic8, Syndic8 extended, Yahoo and Technocrati. You may download extra services below. Don't see the service you want? Request it!

Features:
  1. Hands off pinging of services.
  2. Checkbox support for ping services such as Technocrati, weblogs.com and blo.gs.
  3. Easy installtion of new services.
  4. A safety timeout to make sure a Radio bug doesn't start flooding the ping servers.
Developper Features:
  1. Very easy creation of new services. Should take less than 10 minutes for any service that supports the weblogs.com ping interface.
  2. Built-in support for custom ping services via custom scripts.
Services:

As new ping services emerge on the web I (and hopefully others) will be releasing new services for Master Ping. As they are released I will be posting them here.

To install a new service:
  1. Download it & unzip the file.
  2. Open the Radio application.
  3. Click File->Open then select the .fttb service file you just downloaded.
  4. Remove all the path information, so that the display only shows: masterPingData.services.[servicename] where [serviceName] is the name of the service and click 'Ok'
  5. The tool is now installed! You will have to enable it via the Master Ping Configuration page.
