                This plugin sends a ping to <link href="http://weblogs.com">weblogs.com</link>,
                <link href="http://weblo.gs">weblo.gs</link>, and <link href="http://technorati.com">Technorati
                </link> after new blog entries have been detected. The ping is
                sent via XML-RPC according to the weblogs.com ping XML-RPC
                <link href="http://www.xmlrpc.com/weblogsCom">specification</link>.
                On server startup, the plugin uses the current date and time to determine whether new entries
                have been added. If a new entry has been detected, the plugin will set its check to that entry's
                date and time.

            <p>
                In your global
                <code>plugin.properties</code> file, add the following line:
            </p>
            <source>
                weblogs-ping=org.blojsom.plugin.weblogsping.WeblogsPingPlugin
            </source>
            <p>
                You may then add "weblogs-ping" to one of the flavor-based plugin chains.
                These plugin chains can be found in the individual user's
                <code>plugin.properties</code> file. For example:
            </p>
            <source>
                html.blojsom-plugin-chain=weblogs-ping
            </source>
        </section>
